Sayonara Pinch Flats

Sayonara Pinch Flats

No rider likes being stranded on the trail with a flat, which is why the all new Traverse HD wheels use our USA patent pending “5mm Flat Top” bead design. This optimized profile requires 85% more force to pinch flat compared to a standard round bead, virtually eliminating snake bites. See how we validated pinch flat performance in the Roval Lab.

Strength Testing

Strength Testing

The best wheel is one you don’t have to think about and that’s why Roval created the strongest set of hard hitting, carbon wheels we’ve ever made. We designed a rim shape focused on impact targets derived from our factory enduro riders and build quality designed to win. We then tuned the front and rear layups to enhance characteristics specific to their locations on the bike. Nothing was left on the table; giving riders the durability they need, with the performance they want. See how we validate impact testing in our lab.

High-Precision Handling

High-Precision Handling

Roval engineered and tested Traverse HD for three years, searching for the perfect fusion of ride quality and durability, effectively creating the strongest, high performance enduro wheel we have ever made. Where stiffness meets group, Traverse HD holds you in your line, and snaps you to the next with precision and speed. See how we tested these wheels below.

HEAR FROM OUR RIDERS

Curtis Robinson

“I’ve had a few hard direct impacts to the rim hearing a clear rim to rock ‘smash pinggggg’ and no visible damage, and NO flat. Most cases Its easy to pinch flat from those hard hits. I like the way the wheels look and the weight feels balanced. I’m already feeling multiple improvements from the previous Traverse wheels which is very exciting!”

SURVIVAL OF THE STRONGEST: More Than the Strongest Carbon Wheelset In Our Known Universe, Traverse HDs deliver unbeatable control and pinch-flat resistance in severe terrain, unlocking progression in the bike park, on a trail ride, or on an Enduro World Cup track.

STRONG LIKE BULL (NO BULL): Our strongest rim shape combined with off-set spoke drilling and molded with optimized carbon fibers for front and rear specific characteristics, add up to our strongest carbon trail wheels we have ever made.

SMOOTH AND STRONG: Front layup delivers a smooth, control-enhancing ride, while the rear optimizes stiffness & impact strength.

HIGH PRECISION HANDLING: The fusion of control and durability- where stiffness meets grip, HD glues you to your line and snaps you to the next with precision and speed.

SAYONARA PINCH FLATS: Optimized "Flat Top" bead profile requires 85% more force to pinch flat compared to a standard round bead, virtually eliminating "snake bites". United States patent pending.

AIR TIME: Thank our genius engineer, Chuck Teixeira, for inventing the “Roval ThreadBed Valve”- a valve that threads directly into the rim eliminating compression nuts, air loss from rim flex, makes tire set-up easier, and reduces sealant clogs.

LIFETIME WARRANTY: On Roval Wheels when registered within the first 90 days of purchase.

CRASH REPLACEMENT: 2 Year “It Happens” No Fault Crash Replacement - If you damage your Roval product while riding within the first two years of ownership and it’s not covered under warranty, we’ll still replace or repair. “It Happens” is markets specific, and wheels must be registered.

AMAZING!

I’m 6’3” 197 lb. I’ve used OEM carbon, aftermarket brand name high-end carbon, and everything else in between. I’ve folded, smashed, cracked, de-tensioned and otherwise brought to fail wheels of all types in 35 years of MTB riding. These are TOUGH, light, compliant and KILLER set of carbon wheels. The bigger hits and the “smash ping” that ALWAYS result in a pinch flat or sidewall cut? Not with these! NO LONGER! Read the descriptions of these wheels, watch the videos, believe what Specialized describes. They ain’t lyin’
