NOVATEC'S BROAD DIABLO rims have a 23mm inner width that'll happily support even the biggest 2,4in tyre without pinching it. The 32-spoke build, stout hubs aid tough rims mean the wheels are relatively heavy but the multi-point freehub pick-up is almost instant, which boosts responsiveness.
We beat the crap out of them all last year and despite repeated pinch
flats and rim dings they're not dented or even scuffed, and we've seen the
maddest pro riders have a similarly unscathed time on them.
They've never missed a beat in terms of
bearing or build tension reliability either, and they come with a full
selection of axle adaptors, 9mm and 10mm QRskewers, and spare spokes as
standard. You'll have to buy your own tubeless kit though.
