RLND URB2 Front Wheel - 28/29" | Clincher | Centerlock | QR 100mm - Shimano HB-QC400 - black/silver

RLND URB – Durable Wheels for Everyday Use.

The wheels in the URBAN series are designed for intensive everyday use. With a balanced combination of stability, comfort, and reliability, they are ideal for commuter, city and electric bikes. Durable rim profiles and hub systems tailored to their respective application ensure not only high resilience but also a smooth ride. Thanks to their practical design featuring exceptionally durable components, daily challenges such as varying road surfaces and curbs pose no obstacle.

RLND URB2 aluminum rim

The rims in the URBAN series were developed specifically for daily city use. With their sturdy hollow-chamber construction as well as the eyeleted spoke hole drillings, these aluminum rims provide an excellent foundation for durable wheels that stand the test of continuous urban riding. With an inner width of 19 mm, the URB rims are suitable for tires ranging from 22 to 57 mm in width, ideal for classic city tires as well as comfort-oriented touring tires.

The URBAN models differ slightly in their rim geometry but share the same balanced ratio of stiffness to weight, which ensures consistently predictable handling. In a direct comparison, the URB2 version features a slightly lower profile height (17.5 mm).

Shimano HB-QC400 front hub

The HB-QC400 front hub, which is matched to the components of the Shimano CUES series, is characterized by its ease of maintenance. The aluminum hub owes this to its convincing sealing performance, which is achieved by an appropriate bearing with high-quality contact seals.
