Description

SimWorks is releasing its first purely domestic original spokes, manufactured by Hoshi Kogyo, the last spoke manufacturer in Japan and the only one approved by the NJS.

The base of this Condor Spoke is the Starbright SpokE The characteristics of the spokes depend on the stainless steel material used. Generally speaking, if you need a hard wheel with good acceleration, stainless steel spokes made of SUS304 stainless steel manufactured by the company are said to be superior. However, did you know that Starbrite spokes are the only spokes approved by NJS and used in bicycle racing competitions in Japan? The reason why Starbrite spokes are used in bicycle racing is because the absolute requirement for bicycle racing is not the performance of the bicyclE The most important requirements for bicycles used in bicycle racing are that they must be manufactured with the prevention of cheating and the smooth operation of the competition in mind.

As bicycle enthusiasts know, cyclists reach speeds of over 70 km/h just before the finish line, and their leg strength is of a different dimension from that of ordinary peoplE The most important element of the spokes that support the leg power of these athletes is that they are manufactured with the utmost care to prevent rupturE If a spoke were to rupture during a race, the competition would have to be suspended and the entire staff would have to search for the broken spoke to prevent the next accident, which would be a definite hindrance to the smooth operation of the racE

Hoshi Kogyo's Starbrite spokes, which are made to be used under such harsh conditions, play a major role not only at bicycle race tracks but also in our daily lives. Starbright spokes are designed to minimize serious problems such as broken spokes during daily commuting, active weekend rides, and long-term touring, which are the most severe of all.

Starbrite spokes are manufactured using a special blend of highly tenacious stainless steel wire rods selected by Hoshi Kogyo based on its own strict selection criteria. The original stainless steel wire material has high flexibility and strength as a matter of course, and wheels assembled with these Starbright spokes are very different from wheels assembled with hard sports car spokes that are prone to breaking under extreme loads. This wheel is more durable, and has a unique softness when driving, making it possible to build a wheel that does not tire easily.

The Starbrite, a famous product favored by many professional wheel builders, is different from the standard products in circulation in that it is stamped with SimWorks' original embossing, and the nipple size is 3.23mm (the world standard size) to ensure that repairs can be carried out in any location.

In addition, the 14-15G single battened spokes that SimWorks specially requested this time are actually a specification that is rarely seen on the market, but with the recent increase in demand for gravel riding and active riding that is not focused on racing, the demand for hand-assembled wheels that are difficult to break and easy to repair is increasing. However, the demand for hand-assembled wheels, which are less prone to breakage and easier to repair, is also increasing. We believe that single-butted wheels are the best way to fulfill the common demand of riders to reduce weight while maintaining strength, and we have asked for the production of single-butted wheels to set the standard for the futurE We hope you will give it a try and try it for yourself.

We hope you will take this opportunity to get to know the Starbright spokes, which are the power behind the scenes, and will teach you how to use your bicycle and what kind of use it is important to havE
