Technology
KRU wheels are built on 5 innovative technologies that bring meaningful improvements for both the professional and amateur rider.
The technological advancements introduced to the cycling industry span across every possible stage of the product development process. Research of new patented technologies, reengineering of manufacturing processes, development of proprietary design, exploration of new combinations of materials, strict quality testing processes are only some of the tools we use to shape our products.\
Enhanced Bearings Performance
• Completely rethought hub design and assembly
• Unaffected by overtightening of the quick release (actually rolls faster)
• No maintenance required (200.000 km guaranteed)
• Low friction and rolling resistance comparable to ceramic bearings
• Performs well where other products fail
Seamless Laminate Construction
• Applied seamless lamination technology on both the rim and clincher hooks to substantially improve the construction of the wheels
• One seamless 3K layer is wrapped all around the rim bringing superior stiffness, increased strength and extended durability
• On the clincher hook this technology means no weak points and decreased risk of wheel failure compared to traditional lamination methods that require cutting the hooks and removing excess fiber
Self-Adjusting Spokes
• Drilled an hemispherical groove in the hub flange and added a ball shaped washer placed underneath the spoke head
• Design allows spokes to perfectly align from the hub flange to the rim supporting higher tension
• Higher wheel performance in terms of stiffness and stability
• Greater durability of the spokes, less maintenance required
Structural Laminate Enhanced Design
• Carbon lamination provides a strong construction
• Empty wheel with structural carbon walls to obtain high stiffness at low weight (approx 980g without coating for our W-GEAR disc wheel)
