ASTRAL CYCLING Outback Rim - Stealth Grey

ASTRAL CYCLING's limited production Stealth Grey series features ceramic coating technology from the American brand Cerakote. Renowned as a military-specification coating, this high-performance finish provides superior wear and corrosion resistance with a hard, crack-resistant surface that stands up to physical impacts like scrapes and abrasions.

The ceramic-coated, matte-finish rims deliver high durability even under harsh conditions like rugged off-road riding, allowing for the construction of wheels built to last for long-term use.

The Outback is a tough and reliable rim designed for gravel riding, MTB trail riding, and cross-country racing. The name "Outback" refers to Australia's vast, untamed wilderness, symbolizing a spirit of adventure and the challenge of exploring uncharted territory. Its exceptional reliability and stability have earned it high praise from handmade bike builders and many gravel riders alike.

By utilizing an asymmetric (offset) design, the rim improves spoke tension balance between the left and right sides by up to 30%, making it possible to build wheels with superior stiffness, durability, and stability. The internal rim width is 25mm, accommodating tires ranging from 35mm to 67mm (1.35 inches to 2.6 inches) in width.

[FEATURE]

All ASTRAL CYCLING rims are designed to maximize tubeless compatibility. The center of the rim features a deep groove known as the "Drop Channel," which allows for smooth installation of tubeless tires. They also utilize the "Tubeless Easy" system, which features a precision-engineered bead seat diameter for easy and secure tire mounting and removal. This system also reduces the risk of damaging the tire bead. Furthermore, the design allows the bead to be seated easily even with a floor pump, making it simple to change tires in your own garage to match your next ride.
