No, this is a wheel rim component only and does not include tires, tubes, or rim strips.
The hub is configured for a standard Shimano 11-speed road freehub; compatibility with 12-speed systems depends on the specific cassette type.
No, the wheel does not include thru-axle skewers or any other mounting hardware.
The rim has an internal width of 21mm.
The product is designed to accommodate the specific spacing of 100x12mm front and 142x12mm rear; please verify the specific SKU for the position you need.
You will need to purchase a compatible TLR rim strip and a tubeless valve stem separately, then install tubeless-ready tires and sealant.
Ensure you are using high-quality tubeless tape and a dedicated tubeless-compatible valve, and use a high-volume floor pump or air compressor for the initial seat.
Inspect the freehub body for debris and ensure the cassette lockring is tightened to the correct torque specification.
Loosen the brake caliper bolts, squeeze the brake lever, and re-tighten the bolts to center the caliper over the rotor.
To ensure proper performance, ensure your bike frame utilizes 100x12mm front and 142x12mm rear thru-axle standards. Because this wheel is shipped as a bare component, you must source a compatible TLR rim strip and valve separately if you intend to run a tubeless setup. When installing, always use a torque wrench to tighten your Centerlock lockring to the manufacturer’s specified tension. For regular care, wipe the rims with a soft, damp cloth and inspect the brake rotors for any debris or oil contamination to maintain optimal stopping performance. Always check spoke tension after the first 50 miles of riding, as new wheels may settle in.
