RITCHEY Classic Zeta Wheels (SHIMANO HG) | Rim Brake Wheels Fusing Classic Beauty and Modern Performance
The presence of high-polish silver. RITCHEY's classic wheelset, compatible with road to gravel.
The polished silver gleam further enhances the appeal of chromoly frames and classic bikes. RITCHEY Classic Zeta Wheels are a rim brake specific wheelset that exquisitely combines timeless, beautiful wheel design with modern riding performance and serviceability.
The 23.8mm high aluminum rim features a 20mm inner width and accommodates tires from 25 to 45mm, covering a wide range of uses from the nimble ride of a road bike to gravel rides and touring. Furthermore, the rear rim adopts OCR™ (Offset Center Rim) to equalize left and right spoke tension, achieving high durability and stable rigidity.
The hub uses RITCHEY's proprietary Phantom Flange Hub. While boasting a refined appearance like a straight-pull hub, it ensures high serviceability and durability with J-bend spokes.
The rear hub internally features a 36-point Ratchet Driver, providing direct acceleration performance and smooth power transmission. The freehub and ratchet mechanism can be maintained without tools. It is meticulously designed in every detail as a wheel that can be enjoyed for a long time.
