Crankbrothers Synthesis Wheels

Custom tuned front and rear wheels for a truly unmatched ride experience.

Overview

Crank Brothers Synthesis wheels offer something extremely unique - a custom tuned front and rear wheel. A common trend with riders is to have a wider front tire and a narrower rear tire. Thus, Crankbrothers has manufactured these wheels with differing internal widths for the front and rear wheel. But Crankbrothers didn't stop there - on top of the internal widths accomadating the tire widths, the spoke counts differ as well. The rear wheel is custom tuned with a 32 hole spoke count, giving the rider a stiffer feel for when the terrain requires the rear end to hold its line and not flex as much. On the front end, you'll receive a 28 hole spoke count, which provides a more compliant and forgiving front end.
