NOXON BIKE PRODUCTS TECHNOLOGIES ASYMMETRIC RIM
ASYMMETRIC RIM
The asymmetric section of the rim ensures to minimize the the spokes tension difference between the drive side and nondrive side. The rim asymmetry improves steadiness providing greater riding precision, low alignment degradation and shorter maintenance intervals.
OVERSIZED WHEEL CHANNEL WIDTH CHANNEL
WIDTH
The internal width of the larger rim contains an increased volume of air inside the tire to reduce the operating pressure while maintaining a low rolling resistance. The increased air volume ensures grip over obstacles and absorbs bumps. We have elaborated the best internal width suitable for every discipline (XC, Enduro, DH, Road).
TUBELESS READY
Tubeless tires are puncture and pinching resistant. They are also capable of performing effectively with lower operating pressures. Noxon tubeless systems have been developed to fit any tubeless tire: UST or Tubeless Ready. All this is possible due to the widened rim diameter and bead retention profile.

OVERSIZE BEARING BEARING
ADJUSTMENT PROCESS
Noxon hubs use oversized high quality bearings. The wheel’s smoothness is directly proportional to the bearing quality and endurance level of hub parts. Large bearings perform better under static and dynamic loads, offering longer service life and reduced rolling resistance.
ADJUSTMENT PROCESS
The adjustment process procedure applied to Noxon wheels during the initial assembly strives to eliminate the need to readjust the product due to a loss of alignment after initial use. The induced adjustment let to increase spoke tension, to guarantee rigidity and extend wheel’s performance. Adjustment is implemented during the production phase using a hydraulic press, stretching the Noxon wheel at the spoke junction in a uniform way to achieve the best setting.
HOOKLESS
Hookless rims do not present the typical J-shaped overturned hook; their edges are straight. Advantages are: improved impact resistance on the wheel lip, better tubeless system retention and bead retention.

The NOXON NITRO wheels have revolutionized Front and Full XC/Trail mountain bikes. Their lightness and the advantage of wide rim of the wheels are appreciated in every situation! Asymmetric, hookless and tubeless NOXON NITRO immediately gained popularity amongst the best athletes due to their lightweight (1480 grams per a 29” pair) and a 25 mm internal rim width. A wheel of an enlarged width provides a significant increase in air volume and prevents tires from forming a “teardrop” shape, resulting in a greater contact patch which improves traction on any trail.

New Engage hub with straight pull spokes redefines the standards. We have created a new wheel suitable for intensive use in All Mountain/Trail with the weight of an XC wheel. A new class record was set by a pair of 29-inch wheels weighing just 1510 grams and 27.5-inch ones weighing only 1440 grams, guaranteeing exceptional performance and better grip on all trails. We made the wheel lighter where the structure allowed it, without compromising critical points on the rim, using brass nipples to provide long lasting service life. Greater stability is ensured by 32 spoke construction. The 27 mm wide rim is asymmetric, hookless and tubeless ready. The Wheel’s characteristics speak for themselves, so discover how to improve your performance at high speed XC or technical Trail riding with NOXON DISCOVERY!

WHEEL ASSEMBLY TECHNIQUE ASSEMBLED IN ITALY BY CERTIFIED SPECIALISTS to offer maximum Our wheels are
quality. Based on the intended use of the wheel we use spokes Made in Italy and anodized or brass Sapim Polyax nipples to achieve lightweight and performance. Sapim Polyax nipples, due to their refined shape, provide the perfect orientation of the spoke to the hub flanges, favoring unidirectional traction forces. Our wheels are the culmination of a multitude of tests on materials and suppliers to deliver
42
to our customers a reliable and technologically competitive product. The wheels are subsequently subject to an adjustment process for two purposes: • To eliminate the preliminary unpleasant selfsetting during first uses, which can lead to the alignment loss and unevenness in the spoke tension. • To increase the spoke tension and guarantee rigidity and efficiency. The adjustment process procedure is conducted by a hydraulic press with computer
controlled pressure. This allows to set at different pressures on the wheel based on the specific wheel diameter and intended use. The adjustment process consists in a Teflon disc pushes the wheel towards the spoke junction; after completing the procedure, the best adjustment is achieved. The production process is terminated with an accurate manual control of the wheel centering and camber. We are able to achieve perfect assembly that guarantees high stiffness and stability with low maintenance intervals.
