SUNringle Charger Pro SL wheels


SUN'S CHARGERS USE a Stan's-licensed rim profile that's light and durable and come with prefitted tape and valves so they blow up really easily with a track pump. 

They support mid-width tyres fine and low weight means they put a noticeable punch in your power and a spring in your singletrack step. Super-light, bladed straight-pull spokes mean tracking is springy rather than pin sharp but they shrug off damage well. They also come with every imaginable axle converter, plus bottles of tubeless sealant in the box.

Bearing life has improved (it was dreadful) but even our latest sets have started feeling rough pretty quickly. The company's Charger Pro wheels are only 40g heavier and actually 1mm wider for 160$ less too, making them the better value pick.

Weight: 1,660g (780g F, 880g R)
Rim: 22/27mm
Freehub lag: 75°
Tubeless type: taped
Sizes: 26in, 650b, 29in.
Options: QR/15/20mm F, QR135x10/135x12/142x12mm R
XD: Yes

PRICE 1030$

COMMENCAL EL CAMINO 3

Commencal are going from strength to strength at the moment and they’ve taken their tough trail hardtail bang up to date with 650b wheels. With its skinny rims, crankset and fork, the El Camino certainly isn’t perfect and it’s the least hardcore bike here. The handling, smoothness, speed and all-round agility of the basic bike still make it a real blast for technical trail riding though, and it’s a great base for upgrading over time.
