DESCRIPTION
At Race Face, we’re great at having our cake and eating it too. We balanced strength and durability, light weight and a great ride feel for a wheelset that keeps every rider in the XC to Trail realm happy and pedaling for more. The Era SL wheel was designed to bridge two riding disciplines with the goal of excelling at both ends of the spectrum. Not your typical XC race wheel, nor a strength-forward Enduro wheel. A happy medium, designed specifically for the mass of riders who sit happily in between.
We took the laterally compliant, trail-smoothing properties of the Era wheel to your little bike, without the Enduro-rated weight. Fatigue is just as much—if not more—of a concern in shorttravel applications and Era SL wheels come with 8.6% more lateral compliance. That makes them feel smooth on the bumps while staying lively, without any negative effect on power transfer from the pedals.
The Era SL rim is the lightest ever produced by Race Face. At 385 grams, it’s the same weight as those used in ultralight XC racing wheelsets. Low rim weight helps keep rotational mass low, allowing quick acceleration and maintaining of momentum on climbs. Era SL is not the lightest wheel out there, but that was not our goal. We strived for a competitive weight that upholds our reputation for durability, all at a price that makes sense for more riders
