Boasting a 25% increase in strength and stiffness, the Stans Arch MK3 27. 5in Wheel is a solid choice for the extremes of enduro racing and aggressive trail riding. In fact, this wheel is the go to choice for Stans team of professional enduro racers, so you know it's built to withstand a serious thrashing. Stans achieves an optimal balance of strength, stiffness, and lightweight efficiency with its 6069 alloy rim laced to Sapim Force spokes. Seeing that Stans is a tubeless pioneer, it's no surprise to see the Arch MK3 with Bead Seat Technology BST for a proper seal and secure fitment with tubeless set ups. The rim's low profile shape rolls with less resistance and avoids unwanted pinch flats across rocky sections of trail. Its 26 millimeter internal width gives you a correct tire footprint without deforming rubber into a bulbous or bell like shape. Stans recommends running a tire width in the neighborhood of 2. 25 to 2. 5 inches for plentiful grip and support. Please note, the front wheel we're offering has a 28 spoke count for a bit of weight savings over the burlier 32 spoke rear. Both wheels enjoy the responsive feel of Neo hubs with a 6 pawl system offering an impressive 10 degree engagement.
