hubset: Vigor RS wheel systems orbit around the TdF3.4 proprietary hub, designed and manufactured in the USA. The front hub features a unique 85mm wide flange placement which increases lateral wheel stiffness by nearly 20%. Patented Differential Flange Diameter™ on the rear hub lends a mechanical advantage effectively doubling the number of functional pulling spokes; increasing wheel durability. Black, CNC machined hub shells with over sized axles provide high strength, stiffness and light weight. Optimized flange contours provide full spoke elbow support, increasing spoke life. Hubs also feature precision cartridge bearings with low drag supplementary contact seals and bearing preload adjustment on both front and rear hub shells. freehub mechanism: CNC machined Titanium freehub body has 3 sprung steel pawls for a bomb-proof torque transfer system. Pawls are driven by 3 hardened steel leaf springs. The system is strong, simple and dependable.

rims: The 31mm tall single cavity rims offer slightly heavier wall thickness for superior lateral and torsional stiffness.  These rims offer longer rim service life for racers looking to do all their racing and training miles on one wheel.  Brake sidewalls are CNC-machined for smooth, consistent braking performance.

spoke & nipple: Black, custom bladed, 14 gauge spokes and internal alloy nipples with nylon inserts contribute to clean aerodynamic performance and superior, long-term durability. Patented, Jacketed Nipple Design™ and Dish Reducing design™ reduce spoke bending loads and rear wheel dish to increase spoke fatigue life.

extras: Rolf Prima Vigor RS wheel systems include custom reinforced rim tape and steel quick release skewers.
