Bontrager Paradigm Pro Road Rear Wheel

This wheel is specifically engineered for gravel and mixed-surface riding. Its construction prioritizes durability and stability, making it an ideal choice for riders tackling rougher terrain who need a wheel that can handle impacts while maintaining a responsive feel.

Yes, the Paradigm Pro 30 is Tubeless Ready (TLR). The rim profile is designed to make the tubeless setup process straightforward, allowing you to run lower tire pressures for better traction and puncture protection on gravel.

The wide 29mm internal width provides better sidewall support for high-volume gravel tires. This prevents the tire from squirming during hard cornering and allows you to run lower pressures safely, which significantly improves comfort and grip on loose surfaces.

The Rapid Drive 108 road hub is compatible with Shimano 10, 11, and 12-speed cassettes, as well as SRAM 10 and 11-speed cassettes. It uses a standard road freehub body, so it will not fit SRAM XDR cassettes without a separate freehub body swap.

Yes, this wheel is designed for center lock disc brakes only. You will need to ensure your rotors are center lock compatible or use a center lock adapter if you are currently using six-bolt rotors.

The Rapid Drive 108 hub features 108 points of engagement, which provides near-instant power transfer when you pedal. This is particularly useful on technical gravel climbs or punchy sections where you need immediate engagement to maintain momentum.
