Description Bring on the gravel.
The Wanderlust is a gravel wheel ready for epic mixed-surface and dirt road rides as well as cyclocross. With an internal width of 22mm, it is the 'Goldilocks' wheelset offering easy frame clearance without compromising the ability to run a wide range of tire sizes while keeping the weight down.
Precise handling.
Astral improves the stiffness, strength and longevity of a wheel by using an asymmetric (ASYM) rim design than improves spoke tension balance by up to 30%. On the trail, this translates to balanced handling and precision steering you can rely on in even the most demanding conditions. The tubeless easy design manages the low tire pressure, high torque environment of 'cross with ease, but is also able to run higher pressure road tires for a supple and reliable ride all day. This USA-born best-seller will be a perfect companion year-round — from rainy commutes to summer mixed-surface centuries, muddy fall races and beyond.
Offered in both 700c/29' and 650b/27.5" options with three premium hub to choose from, there's a perfect build for every rider. All Astral Cycling wheels are hand-build in Eugene, Oregon and feature Tubeless Easy rims you can easily set up at home.
