Rims from the Strummer 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 connections. So it is suitable to be a partner in an event, where this component must not fail on the trip.

The Strummer hub with 6 trigger mechanism is made of lightweight but sturdy material. The axle is made of AL7075-T6 material that has gone through a hardening process, making it strong in passing through the terrain at the Java span event. The technology and materials of this axle have been tested on our MTB hub, which of course passes through much more bumpy and sadistic routes. The Strummer HR-100 is the right choice for riders who like low profile hubs with medium profile/volume sounds.

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