Jet RC6 Performance Rear Wheel
Fast in almost any riding scenario, the Jet RC6 Performance rear wheel is the perfect pick when pushing the pace over heavily undulating to flat topography in road races, the fastest chain gangs or efforts against the clock.
The hybrid rim construction sees a structural aluminium section mated to a carbon skin. The carbon skin is tuned via HED’s aerodynamic patent, permitting it to slice through the air and remain stable during crosswinds, while the aluminium section is robust and light. Additionally, the aluminium section incorporates a traditional silver braking surface to guarantee reliable braking and avoid the overheating experienced by all-carbon clincher rims. The internal rim width has a broad, 21mm measurement, helping tubeless-ready or standard clincher tyres perform with decreased rolling resistance, heightened cornering traction and additional comfort.
An in-house designed Sonic Pro hub includes super-smooth spinning bearings, and the freehub has an almost instantly engaging pawl system for rapid accelerations away from corners. Sapim CX-Ray spokes complete the build, further slashing drag via their bladed profile.
