TECH
The WG44 is aero-optimized in width and depth dimensions, delivering a fast-rolling feel previously available only in narrow gravel rim and tire pairings. Featuring an inner width of 30mm and the widest part of the sidewall at 40mm, the WG44 reduces irregular air movements along the rim-tire interface. Air passes the tire and rim concurrently rather than being disrupted prematurely, making the best use of the 44mm aero depth. Even on wider, plusher tires you’ll benefit from this design.
The WG44 features a versatile 44mm aero depth. In exposed areas, the 44mm depth brings enough aero gains and responsiveness without losing control in crosswinds. Adventure anywhere on the WG44!
When configuring the wheelset, you will find a variety of hubs and spokes from brands like DT Swiss, Carbon-Ti, and Sapim to choose from. We only list some of the most popular options, so feel free to get in touch with us to special order. With over 10 years of wheel-building expertise, we calculate the spoke lengths, handlace the wheels to the desired pattern, tension and true the wheels, and do stress-reliving to get your product in a perfect state. You can install the wheels to start a new adventure immediately upon receiving it.

For Pro Series Rims: From the date of purchase, 5-year Pro Warranty as standard and an upgraded optional lifetime Premium Warranty with minimum charge.
