Core technologies
DAO A3 HUB
Engineered to deliver unparalleled performance
ANGLED SPOKE HOLES
ANGLED SPOKE HOLES
Matching the angle of the spoke hole to the angle that the spoke leaves the rim at means that we can greatly reduce the stress at the spoke head. Implementing this technology requires added design and manufacturing work but the result is a far more reliable wheel with less chance of breaking spokes.
