Description
The Astral Outback wheelset is purpose-built for rugged, long-distance adventures, from XC mountain bike epics to wide-tire gravel rigs. Featuring a 25mm internal width, it provides a stable platform for high-volume tires on technical trails or endless dirt roads. The asymmetric (ASYM) rim design improves spoke tension balance by up to 30%, significantly increasing overall wheel stiffness and longevity.
Hand-built in Eugene, Oregon, these wheels utilize the robust Approach hubset, developed in partnership with White Industries. This hub features the proven CLD internal mechanisms but upgrades to a heat-treated steel freehub body for maximum durability with only a minimal weight penalty. The Tubeless Easy rims ensure a simple home setup, making this a reliable, American-made choice for riders who demand a wheelset that lasts through years of abuse.
