ERE Research Tenaci GX23 ALU Disc Gravel Wheelset

The new Tenaci GX23 are the most reliable and versatile wheels for your gravel and travel bike. The low profile of the lightweight, welded rim with its 26mm inner width delivers an amazingly comfortable ride, while at the same time keeping the overall weight of the wheelset very low at 1.640grams.

The new Tenaci GX23 is an extruded lightweight welded 6069 alloy rim that we designed specifically for our performance gravel wheels at an affordable price level. the rim has a 23mm height and has 26mm inner width to accommodate a good fit for wider gravel and cross tyres. The bead shape is tubeless ready but can also be used with inner tubes.

The Tenaci GX23 are fitted with the new Ere Research Iona-S hubs with a 100% in-house engineered and manufactured design. The hubs are bulletproof and will practically run forever when properly taken care of. The straight-pull hubset has a low profile and a sturdy design. Its angled flange supports the directional torque going through the hub body, so it can take any beating. For our Iona hubs we use SKF sealed bearings. Perfect for wet gravel adventures.

For our Iona hubs we use our Ere Torque 2 design, which is taking care of the forces that the hub absorbs from the disc brake load when braking. When the rear wheel gets torque from the hub body when pressure is applied through the chain and cassette, it directs those forces where the material is strongest. That way we can remove material where we can and add material where needed.

Our new Iona hubs are as light as possible, but without compromising on strength and reliability. At the same time, we accomplished keeping the structural integrity with a very thin wall design made from very high-grade aluminium. This results in weights as low as 235grams for the rear hub and 100 grams for the front hub.
