The original Crest rim helped introduce XC racers everywhere to the performance advantages of tubeless. Today’s Crest MK3 is wider and even more versatile, while keeping all the characteristics that make Crest rims so fast on the course. Though wider, the Crest MK3 rim is even lighter than previous versions to accelerate quicker and attack the climbs.
Available in a wide range of axle configurations, Neo hubs use simple and reliable 6-pawl engagement and triple freehub bearings to handle higher vertical and torsional loads. Smooth-rolling low-drag seals are used on both the freehub and end caps. The Sapim Force spokes featured on Crest MK3 wheelsets are lightweight and incredibly strong, and Sapim’s Secure Lock alloy nipples are specially designed to prevent loosening. All together, the Crest MK3 wheelset is the perfect choice for today’s more demanding trails and XC courses.
