The CliffHanger is one of our toughest wheel options, specifically designed to take some of the harshest conditions. It falls into its own category, and can fill a spot in almost all applications of use, from loaded touring, recumbent, 29'er, 27.5", 26", tandem and polo wheels. With a plethora of sizes and spoke drillings available, the possibilities are only limited to your imagination of where these wheels will take you. This versatile rim can be built into the perfect wheel where maximum strength and durability is your first choice. Our standard setup features the Cliffhanger rim, Velocity sealed cartridge bearing hubs, 14g stainless steel spokes and brass nipples. We offer a 32 spoke front and rear, laced 3 cross. We would recommend the use of a 45c or larger width tire be run on these 30mm wide rims.
Each wheelset will come with the properly installed Velotape rim tape and can be used with or without tubes. Valves can be purchased separately and installed for an additional price.
All wheels are proudly handbuilt by
