Rims from Strummer's durability series. These rims are not the lightest, not the fastest, and not the rims with the latest geometry. These rims are strong, sturdy, have good build quality, and good joints. Therefore, they are suitable to be a partner in an event, where this component must not fail during the journey.

The Strummer hub with a 6-pawl mechanism is made from lightweight yet sturdy materials. The axle made from AL7075-T6 has undergone a hardening process, making it strong enough to handle the terrain at the Bentang Jawa event. The technology and materials of this axle have been tested on our MTB hubs, which certainly have gone through much more rugged and harsh routes. The Strummer HR-100 is the right choice for riders who prefer a low-profile hub with a medium sound profile/volume.

The wheelset assembled from this Strummer Hub successfully passed the Bentang Jawa event smoothly without any issues. Thank you for trusting and using Strummer products.
