Easton EA90 Aero Wheel Set

Easton EA90 Aero Wheel Set. Easton EA90 Aero Wheel Set: Versatile lightweight wheel for multiple use and high performance training. The EA90 Aero is the new upgrade for the popular Tempest II aluminum wheel set. True to its predecessor, this wheel is stiff, fast and light. Features include our new Gen4 Aero rims; 28mm deep front and 31mm deep rear provide quick acceleration and a smooth ride. A great hand-built road racing wheel, but equally effective for triathletes.Easton wheels are meticulously tuned by skilled craftsmen to achieve uniform spoke tension. This simple procedure vastly strengthens the wheel and greatly reduces spoke failure. Further, it allows us to sufficiently tension the spokes so that the wheel has the compound attributes of light weight, stiffness, and durability. The spokes are only one aspect of the wheel that sets us apart. Every aspect of the wheel, from bearings to nipples, has been refined and improved. Wheel building is as much art as it is science. High, uniform spoke tension is necessary to build strong wheels that stay true. Nothing does this better than experienced human hands. It's a painstaking process. Easton's systematic approach to precision tensioning and truing sets the standard in the industry. Hubs: F-R4, R-R4 with wider 78mm flange placement for lateral stiffness and handling precision.
