Cross country has moved into a new direction: manmade obstacles on the courses bring new requirements to the rims. When cornering trough manmade berms you need a wide rim, to get a better tire support, resulting in higher cornering speed. At the same time the rim has to be really lightweight for good acceleration. Therefor the X 432 was developed.
Sleeved
A precise sleeve connects the profile. This guarantees optimum resistance against all occurring loads. Sleeve jointing is the best alternative to SBWT® welded rims.
