TECHNOLOGY
Tubeless Ready Rims
Bontrager TLR (Tubeless Ready) Road is the first fully integrated tubeless system for road wheels. When you go tubeless with TLR, you can run lower tire pressure for increased traction and comfort without the threat of pinch flats.
Flat Mount Disc Brakes
All-new Flat Mount Disc Brakes are more elegant, lighter, smaller, and cleaner than traditional disc breaks, providing superior performance and stopping power under harsh conditions.
Blendr-Compatible Stem
Bontrager Blendr stem technology lets you clip your gear directly to the stem for clean looks and maximum user friendliness.
