  • Spank SPIKE 350 Vibrocore BoostXD MTB WheelsetCapable of taking on every terrain with aggression, confidence and dependability, this high-level wheelset from Spank is built to provide a more comfortable and pain-free ride. Equipped with the innovative Vibrocore technology which dampens vibrations, it excels on downhill and freeride runs, it is perfectly equipped for the rigours of such rowdy riding. Built from a lightweight and durable aluminium, the rim measures a massive 30.5mm internal width, ideal for fitting larger, lower inflation tyres in conjunction with its tubeless ready setup. Big and Boisterous, Aluminium MTB WheelThis model comes with XD freewheel compatibility for a superior gearing experience and Boost hub spacing to give clearance for those larger tyres, while providing a wider spoke angle for a stiffer, more responsive experience. Strengthened by 3-crossed, J-bend triple butted spokes, a flex-free build is achieved, while the OohBah “wave” shaped inner rim shape reinforces the wheel to give a completely protected build. Bead Bite anti-air burp technology also prevents air-bleed from your tyres, rounding out a modern and functional wheel to take you all over the mountain as wickedly as you want.Features: Material:¬†Aluminium Rim Width:¬†Internal: 30.5mm; External: 35mm Spokes:¬†J-bend, triple butted, 3-crossed lacing Tyre Type:¬†Clincher Tubeless Ready:¬†Yes Hub Spacing:¬†Boost: Front: 110m; Rear: 148mm Freehub Compatibility:¬†XDTechnology:VibroCore: VibroCore technology is injected into Spank VibroCore products and dramatically reduces vibrations that can lead to hand and arm numbness, fatigue and arm-pump. This additional technology also increases overall stiffness and fatigue life of the product. VibroCore is one of the biggest innovations in Rim technology as it increases the radial compliancy, lateral stiffness and torsional strength while also damping vibrations from the trail.Oohbah: The unique OohBah profile allows Spank to manufacture thinner walled, wider profiled, lighter rims without sacrificing strength or rigidity. Wider rims mean stiffer wheels and more tire spread, leading to greater traction and improved comfort, and tire performance. The ‚Äúwave‚Äù shape of the OohBah inner tube adds strength and support to the vertical rim flange walls and prevent buckling. Normal straight or curved tube wells must be much thicker, and by default heavier, to offer the same support.Bead Bite: At an incredible range of pressures, Bead Bite is the solution to keeping your tires burp free and fixed in place. Bead Bite rim technology enhances tubeless use with tires of all types and with a greater range of air pressures. Bead Bite rims have 6 rows of tiny ridges that run along the vertical and horizontal faces of the bead seats. These tiny teeth create air seals between the rim and tire as the bead conforms to them under air pressure. They dramatically increase frictional forces on the tire bead, reducing the beads’ ability to move vertically or horizontally (thus improving tire stability and reducing burps). The bead literally becomes trapped between the vertical and horizontal ridges, even at very low air pressures. Even in tubed applications, Bead Bite rims tend to allow much lower air pressures with reduced risk of pinch flats.

Where cycling is a passion for many we often invest a lot of our time and money into the hobby. And as we know, getting the right products can give us that small competitive advantage either over our actual competitors, our mates or even just beating our own goals. But because we do invest so much in our bikes and our equipment it’s really important to buy from recognised retailers, in our most recent search, we found many products available online for ridiculously (almost laughable) prices. They were just so low that alarm bells should instantly be ringing. That’s why we only recommend buying from the retailers that you really know and trust, names like Wiggle, Chain Reaction and Evans Cycles are just some of those that we use regularly. With these retailers you know you’re in safe hands and can expect great service, great returns policies and if anything was to go wrong great customer service under a warranty claim.
