Stiff where it counts, compliant where it counts, these balanced carbon hoops will have you shredding the trails. Crankbrothers have tuned their Synthesis wheels to deliver excellent handling in the corners and low rolling resistance when it is time to drop the hammer. The front wheel uses a custom spoke lacing for improved agility and grip. The rear wheel has more spokes and a narrower profile, providing improved tracking and stability at speed.
