// HAND BUILT
Every SPANK wheel is hand laced, tensioned, and trued, and receives
several quality controls check, before the builder signs off on each wheel's build specification.
// HEX DRIVE HUBS
SPANK wheels are hand - laced to the SPANK HEX DRIVE 102T Hub system, with 3.5 ° Engagement, and 6 Pawl, 18 contact point drive system.
// VIBROCORE INSIDE
SPANK pushes wheel evolution one step further with the injection of Vibrocore in to the inner well of our Radially Compliant rims, to increase torsional strength and further reduce vibration.
OUR CRAFT
SAFE , AFFORDABLE AND RESPONSIBLE ALTERNATIVE TO CARBON FIBER .
Utilizing the endless life cycle of aluminium, our proprietary alloy blends offer superior mechanical properties resulting in stronger rims and reduced weight through optimized design.
From rim extrusion, through to final product, each rim is passed through twelve quality control tests.
MICRO GRAIN REFINEMENT PROCESSED ALLOYS .
Processes such as extrusion, forging and tube drawing increase the strength of alloy materials by reducing the grain size. You'd be hard - pressed to find other alloy rims that are subjected to the number of drawing steps or level of refinement as those offered by SPANK IND.
INVERTED TUBE WELL DESIGN FOR GREATER CROSS SECTIONAL STRENGTH . WIDER , LIGHTER RIMS .
The unique OohBah profile allows us to manufacture thinner walled, wider profiled, lighter rims without sacrificing strength or rigidity. Wider rims mean stiffer wheels and more tires spread, leading to greater traction and improved comfort, and tire performance. The "wave " 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. It is one of the main reasons so many describe our rims as ' bombproof ', while it also promotes easier tubeless inflation.
ENHANCED ANTI - BURP AND TIRE RETENTION TUBELESS PERFORMANCE .
SPANK INDUSTRIES BEADBITE is a unique design feature that optimizes set up for tubeless and reduces burps or pinch flats.
Tire beads are locked in place between vertical and horizontal ridges. 12 sets of ridges on the vertical and horizontal walls create tiny air seals, improving retention. Vibrocore reduces negative vibration and increases lateral stiffness & torsional strength.

Tyler and the crew at TGC are awesome!The shipment was delayed a few days but it wasn't anything to do with the company. It had to do with FedEx and holiday season.The rims arrived. The package was packed well and secure. I can't wait to get the wheels setup and installed on my bike!Thanks Guys!

My local bike shop recommended this rim as a bulletproof rim after I bent other rims with very aggressive riding on an ebike. The shop built the wheel with this rim and so far it's been great. I'm not very impressed with the seller. My first order never showed up and I suspect was never actually sent out. The second time I ordered was hit or miss about whether I'd get it. It finally showed up many days later than expected.
