TRAVERSE SL II i9 1/1 2027

Description

SMOOTHER IS FASTER: Trail riders who value agility and maneuverability will be amazed by the supreme control of the Traverse SL II, its strength-to-weight ratio, and its resistance to pinch flats. STRONGER: The rims are specific to front or rear, with an optimized carbon layup for strength and weight. This gives you 15% more front wheel strength and 25% more rear wheel strength compared to the previous Traverse SL. COMFORT: Vertical vibration absorption on the new Traverse SL is 21% greater than on the previous model (thanks to the low-profile rim and the specific front/rear layup), allowing better control and adaptation to the terrain. IMPRESSIVE TRACTION: The rim profile has been carefully engineered for intentional flex, improving support and traction and therefore increasing safety and control. TOUGH LIFE, LONG LIFE: The rim offset allows balanced spoke tension for better fatigue resistance. SAYONARA PINCH FLATS: Thanks to the flat top profile, 85% more force is needed to cause a pinch flat compared to the standard shape, virtually eliminating them. Patent pending in the United States. AIR TIME: Thank our brilliant engineer, Chuck Teixeira, for inventing the "Roval ThreadBed Valve", a valve that screws directly into the rim. This ingenious design eliminates lock nuts and air loss caused by rim flex, simplifies tire installation, and reduces valve clogging. HIGH EFFICIENCY: The i9 1/1 hub optimizes control through a dual-phase drive mechanism with 90 engagement points and 4° of engagement, thanks to a 6-pawl, 45-tooth system. The result is immediate power transfer from the pedals to the drivetrain, propelling you forward with minimal lag. Perfect for blasting through the technical sections of the trail. LIFETIME WARRANTY: On Roval wheels, if registered within the first 90 days of purchase.
