Rolf Prima Black Rock Carbon Wheelset
Details
Ready to Rip
Throw caution to the wind. Point and shoot. Get rowdy, be playful and have fun. Because you only live once, and trails are meant for ripping.
Don’t let the aesthetic of paired-spokes fool you. The balanced spoke tensions and increased stiffness that characterizes all our wheels also applies on the trail. If you live to rip but don’t want to sacrifice climbing speed and wheel weight to do so, the Black Rock is for you. It features a hookless, all-carbon clincher rim built tough enough to handle whatever you throw at it. It’s then centered around our US-made XST hubs with a CNC titanium freehub body and, like all of our wheels, is built in Eugene, Oregon.
With the Black Rock, the only thing holding you back are the thoughts in your head. Put them aside and seize the day.
Going tubeless allows you to run lower tire pressures without the added weight of a tube. Lower tire pressure has many benefits, including greater traction, lower rolling resistance over rough surfaces, and decreased risk of a puncture-related flat.
Tubeless-ready rims and tires are parts of a complete system that eliminate the need for tubes by creating an airtight chamber between the rim and tire. Liquid sealant is added to the chamber to fill small punctures and maintain air pressure while you ride.
UST (Universal Standard for Tubeless) is a specific type of tubeless system that dictates the shape of the rim and tire beads. UST rims should be paired with UST-specific tires for best results.
