Hope Fortus 35W Pro5 disc 29" rear wheel Boost SRAM XD- freewheel

Don't worry anymore

Hope has always stood for durability and robustness. And that is exactly what the next generation of their wheels stands for.

The Fortus rim made of high-quality 6061 T6 aluminum and its multi-chamber construction is virtually indestructible. Thanks to the reinforced rim flange, the rim can easily cope with severe punctures. The perfect look is rounded off by the welded ends.

The focus of the wheels are the new Pro 5 hubs. Building on Hope's 30+ years of hub manufacturing experience, the Pro 5 is the combination of all their expertise to meet and exceed the demands of current and future bicycle technology.

One of the key design goals for the Pro 5 was to reduce drag in the drive mechanism. This has real driving benefits and has been achieved by upgrading the seal with a new zero drag labyrinth seal and an improved ratchet and pawl system with new springs. Both significantly reduce drag and increase durability and load capacity compared to the Pro 4.

Externally, the shell adopts a new profile to increase stiffness without adding weight, while housing a new axle design that allows the use of larger bearings in a better arrangement to meet the latest freewheel standards while increasing load capacity.
