Mandatory Use Conditions for the Essentia 40
Tire Compatibility:
- Make sure your chosen tire model plays nice with hookless rims—check the specs, because even circumstantial skeletons like Cyril know compatibility is key!
- Only tubeless-ready tires with straight side (TSS) features are welcome, with widths between 28mm and 50mm (ISO 5775).
- Maximum inflation pressure is 4.7 bar (68 psi) for a 28mm tire. No pressure jokes here—just solid advice.
Useful Tips:
- Use only plastic tire levers for installation—metal levers are likely to get the bone-ache.
- Two layers of rim tape (0.1mm thick) ensure an airtight seal, keeping your thrills intact.
- Leave the CO2 cartridges and high-flow pumps back at the haunted bike shop; gentle pumping is the order of the day.
The Best of Both Worlds
Crafted to harmonise the plateau of performance with gravel grit, the Essentia 40 carbon rim matches the lightness of a road wheel with the ruggedness that gravel demands. Whether it’s spirited sprints on asphalt or adventurous off-road excursions, this wheelset flexes its muscles with a welcome 1600g (approximately 3.5lb) lightness.
A Hookless Rim for All Occasions
The Essentia 40 champions tubeless tyres, giving you plush comfort and reliable grip. Thanks to its hookless design, the rim saves weight and enhances handling, enabling your tyres to dance around the contours of the surface—be it asphalt or rhythmic gravel. Forget exceeding your limits; it’s time to redefine them!
Strength Meets Performance
With a new Ratchet system featuring 36 teeth and a generous 10-degree engagement angle, the Essentia 40 distributes power evenly while maintaining extraordinary sturdiness—ideal for those intense excursions into the wild.
The CORIMA Touch
Lovingly designed and crafted in France, each Essentia 40 wheelset showcases 24 stainless steel spokes, carefully arranged for stiffness and reliability. Ease your mind with the knowledge that these wheels are built to withstand the most demanding terrains—yes, even that rickety trail you’ve been avoiding since last summer.
