Looking for a pair of reasonably priced wheels to upgrade your gravel grinder or CX rager? Look no further. Industry Nine has developed the ideal set of wheels for taking the road less traveled.
Adopting the proven technology of I9 1/1 mountain line, the 1/1 GRCX brings off-road readiness to drop bar bikes. Their unassuming, but advanced 1/1 Road drive mechanism keeps pedal power transfer consistent and predictable. Offered with a 24.5mm inner rim design, the 700c GRCX rim shines on rides that see both road and gravel. Perfect for backcountry or touring adventures, 1/1 Road brings Industry Nine performance to new riders and new routes.
Industry Nine has become one of the most reliable wheel and hub manufacturers in the MTB and Gravel industries, producing quality, top-of-the-line wheelsets. Handmade in Asheville, North Carolina, I9's famous wheel builders test all of their products on the grueling trails of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The Industry Nine 1/1 GRCX 700C Wheelset is lightweight, agile, and durable. The 1/1 hub is entry-level for I9 but far from being basic, featuring all of the same bearing and axle upgrades as the higher-end Hydra hubs. The biggest difference between the Hydra and the 1/1 hubs is the freehub body, with 690 P.O.E at 0.54-degrees for the Hydra while the 1/1 has 90 P.O.E at 4-degrees.
The 1/1 GRCX 700C Wheelset was designed for road to gravel riding and is compatible with 700 X 33-55 tires. It is tubeless-ready, so tire pressure and puncture protection can be regulated for the hard roads ahead.
Weighing in at 1710g, this wheelset is lighter than its similarly-priced alloy competitors and reduces the overall rolling weight of the bike.
