Specialized Traverse 38 650B 148 Wheelset Charcoal Decal 650b Features

At the helm of taking traction, stability, speed, andstiffness to new heights stands the Roval Traverse Fattie 38650b wheels with 110mm front and 148mm rear hub spacing. Andwhile their Boost-spacing axle widths give the frame and forkclearance and stiffness that results in a stiffer, stronger,and more durable system at a minor weight penalty, what turnsthem into descending machines is the 38mm internal rim width.

The reason behind this is relatively simple: aside from thelightweight, ultra-rugged E5 alloy construction, thecombination of the revolutionary width with wider hub flangesequates to an increase in plus-sized tire volume for moresuppleness in the ride quality. Not only this, but the amplewidth also better supports the tire, meaning that you’llexperience less “burping” when riding tubeless, as well as adrastic increase in traction.

These aren’t just a one-trick pony, however. At the fronthub, you’ll get a 15x110mm thru-axle (end cap optionsincluded), and at the rear, the 148mm hub features DT Swissinternals for lightning-fast engagement and acceleration. Andto top everything off, these wheels are hand-built to ensurethe perfect tension and a long lifespan.

Whether you have just picked up a new plus-sized 650b bike,or you’re curious to try out three-inch tires on your Boost-spaced 29er, the Traverse 38 Fattie 650b wheels will leave youimpressed after the first spin.
