Differences between spoked and cast wheel
-
Cast wheel, tubeless. Front:18 x 2.5 Rear: 18 x 3.0
Spoked wheel, with inner tube. Front:18 x 2.15 Rear: 18 x 2.5
-
Cast wheel: 120mm
Spoked wheel: 130mm
-
Because the disc brakes are mounted 5mm further outwards on both sides of the spoked wheel, additional 5mm spacers are placed between the caliper and the contact surface on the front fork. This can be aligned even more precisely with shims. The lower fork legs have extra recesses to give space to the brake discs mounted further outwards.
-
The rear wheel axle has no differences between the spoked and cast wheel.
-
The spoked front wheel axle has different dimensions. See picture:
