2017 BUILT RIGHT. HERE. Building every wheel by hand in Eugene, Oregon, USA

BUILT RIGHT. HERE. We are craftsmen and we are perfectionists. Your rides are as important to us as our rides are. We understand that quality and workmanship matter. By hand-building our wheels with parts that we design, test and manufacture, we can provide our customers with the consistently great experience they expect from us. We are athletes. We ride, we run, we ski, we climb and we swim. We believe in a healthy balance and we take advantage of every opportunity that life allows. We are teammates. We strive to maintain a supportive and rewarding place to work and it shows in our dedicated service. We are local. We are committed to our community and the cycling community at large. We show our support through events, volunteering, participation, and cyclevangelism. We are dedicated. We endeavor to stay true to our core beliefs in quality over quantity and purposeful engineering. Why? Because better is always worth it. BUILDING BY HAND Most of us have something that we will go out of our way for because it is better. Whether it is coffee, beer or some other vice we appreciate the pursuit of perfection. What we feel is the right way is rarely the quickest or cheapest. We believe building wheels by hand is the right way. A handbuilt wheel offers a noticeably superior ride quality along with measurable gains in durability and performance. While a machine can get one close, perfection can only be attained by a craftsman. We know that there are easier ways, but we re in the business of making exceptional wheels. We want you to be as proud to ride them as we are to build them. At Rolf Prima, every wheel goes through the same painstaking build process. This process is rigorous and it enables our wheels to run truer longer without the need for constant attention. Ride the difference Rolf Prima - Hard Earned. Hand Built. BUILT RIGHT. HERE. Eugene, Oregon USA

TESTING Building a Best-In-Class wheel is not done with random parts out of a catalog, it requires extensive engineering, design and development. Then every wheel we design is tested and tested again until it is dialed. At Rolf Prima, we pride ourselves on our engineering, but we don t consider it ready until we ve validated it through measurable testing. And not just any testing; we ve developed a regimen that puts our wheels through the literal ringer; with tests that focus on stiffness, impact, braking, aerodynamics and durability, among other things. Why? Because we ride too and we know these things matter to our riders. Paired Spokes Bringing the spokes to the rim in pairs neutralizes the left and right outward pulling forces allowing us to build true wheels on lighter rims with fewer spokes. Differential Flange Diameter Our patented oversize non-drive Differential Flange provides leverage to transmit drive torque in the rear wheel to the non-drive spokes, thereby increasing the number of torque transmitting spokes. TECHNOLOGY Dish Reducing Design This patented technology increases the bracing angle of the drive side spokes to improve wheel stiffness. Delta Rim Technology Our Delta Rim Technology improves airflow and stability in straight-on and crosswind situations. This wider rim isn t just faster; the shape and additional tire support also improve cornering and handling in all riding conditions. Jacketed Nipple Design The deeper the rim, the more a spoke must bend along its path to the hub flange. Our patented Jacketed Nipple Design moves the bend of the spoke away from the high stress area of the spoke threads and increases spoke life significantly. Self-Aligning Nipple Our patented Self-Aligning Nipple design allows the nipple to rotate in a ball and socket configuration to minimize spoke bending and increase spoke life.

CARBON CLINCHERS - EOS Eos3 Weight 1295g Spoke count 14/16 32mm 24.5mm Hub TdF6.0 Developing anything on the sharp technical edge requires time and many failures before success can be achieved. After several years of process and product development, we are proud to release our new generation of carbon clincher wheels, made right here in the USA. The Eos3 features an all new, USA made carbon tubeless compatible clincher rim, manufactured in the Pacific Northwest. It is paired with our USA made hubs and like all Rolf Prima wheels, hand-built in Eugene, Oregon. Though it was designed with an eye on the scales, the Eos3 keeps its other eye on the wind and in fact was the go-to wheel for the 2016 Rolf Prima RAAM team for their race across the USA. The Eos3 design not only decreases the watts needed to get to the top of the hill, but also requires less power to gain and maintain speed through the downs and flats. Though it is a lower profile, this is not just a climber s wheel.

RIMS Taking a straight stick of aluminum and rolling it into a hoop with holes is easy. Making a precision bicycle rim that is true, strong and dependable is another story. The details and refinement required are downright painstaking, but it s rewarding. It s why we demand perfection from every rim and wheel we make. HUBS We set out to design a hub set that is so dependable that you simply don t have to think about it. We chose materials that are not only tough, but lightweight as well, giving you the performance and durability required. In our best in class TdF hubs, you ll find CNC machined 6al-4v grade 5 titanium freehubs, CNC machined 6061 T6 aluminum hub shells, Enduro Zer0 ceramic cartridge bearings and independently sprung hardened steel pawls. This combination of in-house manufacturing with our testing capabilities have enabled us to dial in performance and durability to an even greater degree of excellence. We are obsessive about this because we understand it you want something you can count on for your big rides, races and long tours. We do too. 52.3 29.1 28.2 25.4 R5 52.3 R9.5 35 28.2 29.1 25.4 78.9 12 8.23 2.5 3.5
