This is the same heavy duty wheelset that is found on the Jones PLUS LWB HD/e bikes and ebikes. The 6061-T6 aluminum rims have a 50 mm outer and 45 mm inner width and 36 eyeleted spoke holes for maximum strength. The wide, 45 mm inner width spreads the tire beads making for a tire that folds over less at low pressures while cornering hard, and resists bottoming during hard impacts. The double wall rim has a very pronounced bead lock to keep the tires on the rim at low pressures. The rims are pre-taped for tubeless and drilled for more durable schrader valve stems which allow for better airflow making set up easier.
The Jones Spec. HD/e 148 mm x 12 mm thru axle rear hub is strong and durable. The axle and Shimano HG freehub body are both made from chromoly steel for maximum stiffness and strength. The freehub body is compatible with 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 speed cassettes that are designed to work with Shimano HG freehub bodies. The 4 freehub pawls and the ratchet teeth are larger than what’s found in most hubs adding to the overall strength.
The front hub features canted flanges that angle the spokes in toward the spoke holes in the rim and wide, equal flange spacing. The rear hub also has wide flange spacing which makes for extremely strong and stiff wheels. Cutaways in the flanges keep weight to a minimum. Both hubs have sealed cartridge bearings and a 6-bolt disk brake pattern. These are very strong and stiff wheels, great for ebikes or for carrying heavy loads.
