Description
With a 26 mm internal width accommodating tyres from 2.25" to 2.5" wide, the HOPE Fortus 26W rear wheel will delight Enduro and All Mountain riders looking for a quality product at a good price. A true showcase of the brand’s design expertise, this model builds on and improves the strengths of the Tech range to keep pace with ever-evolving width standards. It is a worthy successor to the iconic Tech wheels.
It features a 6061-T6 aluminium rim developed and manufactured by HOPE at its factory in Barnoldswick, England. Designed for disciplines where strength and grip are paramount, its wide profile and double-cavity construction provide extra durability without excess weight, while allowing the tyre to perform at its best.
This Fortus features the Pro 5 hub, the successor to the British brand’s legendary Pro 4. With improved sealing thanks to new seals and a new six-pawl system offering 108 engagement points, this hub delivers exceptional performance for demanding mountain bikers.
