This heavy-duty wheel integrates e*thirteen's revolutionary Sidekick anti-kickback hub technology with their resilient 6069-AL rim profiles into a value-packed, huckproof package. Built specifically for the high-load demands placed on a rear wheel, it balances premium rock-strike resilience with traction-enhancing compliance and tracking stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe defining centerpiece of this wheel is the innovative \u003cstrong\u003eSidekick Rear Hub\u003c\/strong\u003e. Featuring an adjustable 9°\/13°\/18° deadband and a reliable 3-pawl mechanism, this hub eliminates pedal kickback by absorbing chainstay growth directly at the source. By decoupling drivetrain forces from your rear suspension, Sidekick technology allows your rear shock to move completely free of chain tension. This dramatically improves small-bump sensitivity, isolates harsh chain feedback, and filters out drivetrain shock before it ever reaches the rider, allowing you to carry more \"free speed\" into technical track sections with whisper-quiet, nearly silent trail operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaced up to the hub is the gravity-specific \u003cstrong\u003eFlux 66 GR Aluminum Rim\u003c\/strong\u003e. Built from tough 6069 aluminum with a value-oriented sleeved joint, it features a signature 17mm low-profile depth explicitly engineered to optimize radial compliance. This intentional flex filters out punishing trail chatter and rough square-edged rock gardens, acting as an integrated layer of suspension that drastically reduces rider fatigue.
