For high speed tandem riding these are
the best wheels on the market. Also available with disc brakes these high
performance tandem wheel systems have half the spokes of traditional tandem
wheels. The deep section rims offer clean aero performance as well as good
torsional and radial stiffness.

hubset:All Vigor Tandem wheel systems orbit around
a proprietary hub designed and manufactured in the USA. Black, CNC machined hub
shells with oversized axles provide high strength, stiffness and light weight.
Optimized flange contours provide full spoke elbow support, increasing spoke
life. All hubs feature bearing preload adjustment on both front and rear hubs
and spec precision cartridge bearings with low drag supplementary contact seals.
Vigor Tandem rear hubs are compatible with drum or disc brake with use of
thread-on adapter sold separately. Available in 145mm dropout spacing only.
freehub mechanism: CNC machined steel freehub body
has 3 sprung steel pawls for a bomb-proof torque transfer system. Pawls are
driven by 3 hardened steel leaf springs. The system is strong, simple and
dependable.
rims: At 520 grams, these tandem-specific rims use
a 34mm tall single cavity rim section, but with a heavier wall thickness than
the regular Vigor for added strength. The lightest deep section alloy rim
available for tandems. This combination of aerodynamic performance and minimal
rotating weight makes Vigor - Tandem wheels the fastest low spoke count wheels
available in the tandem wheel class.
spoke & nipple: Custom bladed, 14 gauge spokes and
internal alloy nipples with nylon inserts contribute to clean aerodynamic
performance and superior, long-term durability. Patented, Jacketed Nipple
Design™ and Dish Reducing design™ reduce spoke bending loads and rear wheel dish
to increase spoke fatigue life.
extras: Rolf Prima wheel systems include custom
width reinforced rim tape and Steel quick release skewers (109g / set).
