If you’re looking for an agile mountain bike wheel that offers great value for the price and excellent puncture resistance, the Roval Traverse SL 29 II i9 28H Rear Wheel is for you. A carbon rim that will let you enjoy cycling like never before—discover it at Escapa.
STRONGER
The front and rear rims, with carbon layers optimized for strength and weight, offer 15% more strength in the front wheel and 25% more strength in the rear wheel compared to the previous Traverse SL.
VERTICAL COMPLIANCE
The new Traverse SL II i9 1/1 is 21% more vertically compliant than the previous model (achieved through a shallow rim profile and specific front/rear layup), allowing for better traction and improved shock absorption over bumps.
TRACTION
The carefully designed tire profile flexes intentionally to improve support and traction, boosting confidence and control.
LONG SERVICE LIFE
The tire’s designed profile allows for balanced spoke tension, resulting in improved fatigue life.
