Durable power for the long haul.

You now have no excuses for omitting those harsh sections of road from your training rides. You know, those stretches you've always wanted to check out, but have always avoided while running your precious carbon hoops. However, when equipped with proper wheels underneath you, such as PowerTap's durable 32-spoke, classic box-section rims, those battered roads open up with new light. And when you take these durable wheels and pair them with a PowerTap G3 Hub, your route possibilities become endless. With the G3 Alloy Wheelset, you'll be riding on the most dependable, affordable, and advanced power training package available. After all, you're training, and you need to ride the roads in front of you, no matter how torn up they might be.


With this new wheelset from PowerTap, you get the venerable PowerTap G3 rear hub, which is the lightest and most advanced powermeter in the world,  and Sun Ringle's EQ21L rims. PowerTap has completely redesigned the previous PowerTap model and improved multiple aspects ranging from rigidity to functionality. The new PowerTap G3 rear hub is a powermeter on a diet. An 80-gram weight reduction from the popular SL+ makes the G3 rear hub the lightest powermeter in the world. PowerTap improved on the rigidity of previous models for the G3 by shrinking the hub profile and widening the flanges, ending the days of heavy, paint bucket-sized rear hubs. With the distractions of weight and stealth design out of the way, PowerTap improved the functionality and accuracy of data gathering.


For one, PowerTap moved the orientation of the electronics that transmit user data to the end cap of the freehub body. With the new positioning, it's now possible to remove the electronics for service without swapping out the entire wheel, equating to more time in the saddle and fewer headaches. The new G3 is also equipped with an ANT+ wireless transmitter that sends power, torque, speed, and virtual cadence data to either your PowerTap Joule GPS or any other ANT+ compatible head unit. The G3 is capable of storing up to 15 hours of data in one-second gathering intervals, and up to 30 hours of data in two-second gathering intervals. The G3 design still has a 'torque tube' with eight strain gauges, yielding measurements accurate within +/- 1.5% between 40 and 130 rpm.


Each PowerTap Alloy G3 Wheelset is hand-built in the USA with Sun Ringle EQ21L rims and Wheelsmith DB14 spokes in a durable 32 spoke three-cross lacing pattern. Additionally, the front wheel has been laced to the 99 gram PowerTap front hub. This front hub design features a beefed up 10mm axle, an aluminum hub shell, and 6901 aluminum sealed bearing cartridges.


The PowerTap G3 Alloy Powermeter Wheelset is available in a clincher form with either Shimano/SRAM or Campagnolo compatible freehub bodies. Please note that the Shimano freehub body is compatible with 11-speed Shimano cassettes.
