Tubeless Ready System: the bead lock lets you run a tubeless tire with sealant, cutting rotational weight and sealing small punctures.

V-Braking Compatible: designed to be used as a rear rim when using a V-brake.

Fitment

For 20" mini and cruiser frames using rim brakes, not disc or brakeless setups. Carbon brake tracks require carbon-specific brake pads: standard pads for aluminum rims overheat the carbon and can cause rim failure.
