Are syncros rims good?

Given the extreme nature of the testing, the Syncros FR wheels held up fairly well. I did my best to destroy these wheels. I rode them down steep rock faces, big jumps, rough landings and rock strewn race courses. They sustained some damage during testing but never catastrophically failed.

Are asymmetric rims better?

+ Asymmetric rims with offset spoke holes allow for better triangulation of spoke angles and balance of tensions in a wheel build, resulting in a stronger, stiffer (laterally due to proportionately more lateral tension), more compliant (radially due to proportionately less radial tension), and more reliable wheel.

Are syncros wheels made by DT Swiss?

From the specs I can find Syncros is Scott’s in-house brand(?) and they’ve got “Made by DT Swiss” hubs, 35mm internal width, 28H, straight-pull spokes, Boost sizing.

What are asymmetric rims for?

The reason the rim is asymmetrical is so the spokes from opposing sides are closer in length, creating a more even triangulation. A non-asymmetrical rim would have a longer spoke on one side, which can lead to a weaker wheel when comparing impacts from one side versus the other.

What are offset rims MTB?

To start with, offset rims do one thing: they equalize tension between the spokes on each side of the wheel. They do not create stiffer wheels. To do that, you would have to increase the overall bracing angle (angle of the spoke between the hub flange and the rim).

Are DT Swiss wheels good?

Ultimately these are a great set of wheels for training, racing or just a general upgrade. You’ll be getting good quality hubs and spokes from the brand who supply much of the industry as well. The only downside to the 1600 Spline 23 wheel was the odd skewer it had for the rim brake version.

What is rim boost?

What is Boost? Boost is the latest and greatest axle platform which all performance mountain bike frame and fork manufacturers are adopting. Boost widens the rear axle by 6mm and the front axle by 10mm. So what does Boost do for you? A wider axle means that the spacing between your hub’s flanges can be increased.

Are offset rims bad?

If the offset is negative you will get more aggressive strain in return. It will help in increasing the steering wheel back with kick along with placing additional stress on the vehicle suspension. It will greatly affect the wheel rub which will damage the flange located in the inner part.

What wheel offset is best?

As a general rule of thumb, most front wheel drive vehicles have a positive offset. If you want to put wider wheels on your vehicle than OEM, you generally need to reduce the offset. By reducing the offset, you bring the wheel a bit more inward, so it doesn’t extend out too far and muck up the way the vehicle handles.

What kind of disc wheel does Syncros use?

How big are the rims on a Syncros DPS 32?

All rims are individually checked for roundness and trueness, so if you don’t build straight wheels with these rims, it’s down to you, not the rim. Weights are ballpark 685g for the 32-hole model and 730g for the 36 holer (the benchmark Mavic D729 32-hole is 675g) so they’re not lardy.

How much does a Syncros 700C wheel cost?
