Designed to minimize weight while blending stiffness and compliance to maximize power transfer and increase comfort, the WTB CZR i23 wheel is made for adventurous miles on gravel or roads.
- Designed to deliver an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio
- 28 spoke design feature a 3-cross pattern to increase durability while still providing ample radial stiffness due to the additional spokes
- 3 mm asymmetric spoke offset and 24 mm section depth improve radial stiffness and energy transfer while not being affected by crosswinds like other deeper profile wheels
- Frequency hub features a low-drag, 6-pawl design that alternates contact between 2 sets of 3-pawl groupings to provide a responsive 5° of freehub engagement
- Lightweight pawl springs minimize drag and therefore improve efficiency for drop bar usage
- Reinforced spoke beds improve overall wheel strength and durability while also minimizing weight in areas where less strength, and therefore material, is needed
- Lightweight Pillar racing spokes are cold forged into an aerodynamic wing shape that reduces drag at the trailing end of each spoke to improve efficiency
- Time-tested Sapim alloy nipples further reduce overall wheel weight while still being durable to hold up to the requirements of gravel riding
- Included durable nylon Solid Strip prevents TCS tubeless tape from pushing into the spoke holes and ensures a smooth interface between the tire and rim
- This smooth surface also makes it easier to mount a tire by preventing air from escaping around the bead at each indent during inflation
- Solid Strip also protects the airtight system from puncture in the case of a broken spoke
- Hooked bead improves tire retention with high-pressure adventure road and gravel tires
- Ideal for adventure road and gravel use
- Max rider weight: 265 lbs.
