The next generation in SPANK’s mountain bike rims with a built in vibration damping system. Low sectional profile height and high width adds radial compliance while keeping high lateral stiffness.
Overview Spank 359 VibroCore rim
- World Cup DH developed and proven, Tuned Wheelset with internal vibration damping, weight optimized for race.
- Radial compliant design adds traction, and reduces wheel deflection, and negative feedback, without compromise to strength or lateral stiffness
- Vibrocore™ inner core reduces the transmission of vibration, reducing rider fatigue, and increasing rim fatigue life and torsional strength
- 30.5mm inner width allows versatile tire fitting from 2.0” to 2.6” perfectly, without negative squaring off of tire profiles
Spank Technologies
VibroCore™ is a proprietary, biodegradable, complex foam core that reduces vibrations. The low density, pressurized core performs a similar function to the soft tissue inside bones, increasing inner wall strength and absorbing vibrations. While adding just 40g to the overall weight of the rim, VibroCore foam core increases torsional strength and increases the overall fatigue life of the rim, meaning high durability at a remarkably low weight. In fact, VibroCore facilitates modern rim designs with thinner wall thicknesses in some areas, without any negative effect on strength and resilience.
Spank's unique patented
OohBah™ profile with inverted tube well increases rigidity immensely compared to other rims currently available. Additionally OohBah™ allows to optimize the design and drastically reduce weight to offer the toughest performance hoops in their price to weight ranges.
BeadBite™ is a patented technology to enhance tubeless performance drastically. Simply put, it is a row of small parallel ridges inside the bead seat of the rim. The tire bead interlocks with those ridges to form a much more secure and better sealed connection with the chances of tire burping and air loss drastically reduced, even with super-low tire pressures.
