Why do I need it?
Chances are unless you spent multiple thousands of dollars on your bike, the wheels are lacking in quality. You’re not going to want to spend more on wheels than your bike, but you always want an upgrade. The Rouleur will be that upgrade that will have the most impact on your bike’s performance and one you’ll enjoy every day.
A great upgrade over a heavy stock OEM wheel, the Rouleur Disc offers a modern 21mm wide tubeless rim bed. The Skyuka hub features 10 degree engagement and a centerlock design.
This handcrafted wheel is laced with double-butted j-bend spokes and brass nipples. Two cross lacing pattern built to withstand high-torque loads, and a tubeless ready rim bed for running road tubeless setups. This wheel spins BOYD Skyuka disc brake hubs that feature ten degrees of engagement, quick swap freehub body, press-fit end caps and is compatible with Shimano and Sram cassettes. This disc brake specific wheelset weighs in at 1760g and is for every day and every road.
Skyuka Hubs
The Skyuka hubs have durability in mind. While this can add a few grams over the Quest hubs, the Skyuka hubs have unbeatable torque handling with 4 pawl engaging simultaneously on 36 teeth (which gives a quick 10 degrees of engagement).
