Chris King/Pacenti DL3 Custom Wheelset

Wheel admirers look no further

There are loads of bright ideas and broken wheels kicking about at the moment. Many wheelsets look great when new but lack longevity and often need replacing sooner than anticipated with lack of serviceability or spares availability being common frustrations. So how about investing in a pair of handcrafted wheels such as this Chris King/Pacenti DL31 custom build? These hand built wheels from the wheelsmiths at Evolution Imports bring the best components together resulting in not only stunning performance but also a very long life.

These Chris King hubs are not only super fast but engineered like a Swiss watch, with second to none spares back up

 

Chris King has been manufacturing the highest quality components from their Portland factory for over 30 years and these hubs are not only super fast but also engineered like a Swiss watch with second to none spares back up. All axle sizes are available, with parts ‘on the shelf’ at the UK importers. King hubs have legendary longevity and ultimately give long-term value as well as performance.

Evolution imports build these wheels with Pacenti rims. Kirk Pacenti was an early adopter of the 650B/27.5 wheel size nearly a decade before they became mainstream. They started making rims in 2009, pioneering the move towards a wider rim, giving better sidewall bracing and more sure-footed traction, a trend that is now becoming commonplace. These tubeless compatible Pacenti DL31 rims are tough, reliable and designed for any hard riding from trail through to light DH use. Tested thoroughly by Pacenti and several pro teams, these rims are a top choice when paired to the Chris King hubs.

These are truly superb wheelset for trail or enduro use, very fast, and with a great feel on the trail. Incredibly reliable, and affordable to maintain in the long-term; a real investment.
