Wheels for Purpose
The Scribe Alloy Gravels were designed for challenging, mixed road conditions. Whether you're a complete off-road gravel rider, or simply like to hop-on/hop-off road/trail, you will have confidence these wheels will deliver.
The Wide 25mm internal profile gives you the option to fit wide tyres for increased stability when cornering, and increased speed due to improved rolling resistance - especially when ran as tubeless. With Centre lock disc as standard, you can ride with confidence knowing the stopping power is there when it's needed.

Bearings
You choose! Bearings are an essential component of wheels and it's important your bearings perform as you want them to.
-
Endurance Bearings: are fast & designed to stand the test of time, so you can ride as much as you want with confidence.
-
Race Bearings: But for those looking for every Watt gain, you may prefer super-fast Race bearings! *Please note: Race bearings are FAST, but they have non-contact seals which are less resistant to water.
- High quality Taiwanese TPI stainless steel bearings (doesn't rust or corrode)
- Sealed cartridge units with 1x contact seal (outer facing seal interfaces with ball bearings to resist water penetration), and 1x non-contact seal (no interface between ball bearings increases rolling speed)
- Precision engineered to produce incredibly high roundness, with low friction surface
- Aqua grease: repels water and allows your bearing(s) to spin smoothly long term
Spokes and Nipples
- The Scribe Gravels are designed to be tough! For this reason, we use Pillar's double butted, PDB spokes: (2mm - 1.6mm - 2mm). The short 2.0mm sections at either end, and 1.6mm for the middle section offers a strong built that will still accelerate quickly.
- Extremely high-fatigue test results means they are extremely durable
- J-bend so you can use any brand as a replacement
- For nipples, we use Pillar's Brass DSN nipples. As the Gravels will be exposed to most seasons, brass nipples have significantly improved fatigue resistance when compared with alloy, and they don't corrode, so you can ride them in wet, salty conditions without having to worry about them failing.
