Magnesium Alloy Integral Wheels Compared with Other Wheels

1. Compared with spoked wheels

(1) An integral wheel runs on sealed bearings, so it rotates very smoothly.
(2) Stability is excellent. Spoked wheels need re-truing after long use, whereas an integral wheel never goes out of true and never needs adjustment.
(3) Elasticity is excellent — the wheel does not deform on impact and lasts a very long time.
(4) Shock absorption is very good, so impacts are small and mountain-riding does not become harsh.
(5) Low-carbon and environmentally friendly.
(6) Modern appearance with vivid colours, popular with younger riders and making every ride feel more energetic.

2. Compared with aluminium integral wheels

(1) Magnesium alloy is lighter than aluminium alloy — about two thirds of the weight (a magnesium integral wheel weighs 1.5 kg against 2.3 kg for aluminium).
(2) Magnesium integral wheels are far more elastic — up to 100 times that of aluminium integral wheels — and therefore resist deformation on impact.
(3) Our magnesium wheels are one-piece castings with no weld seams, so performance is more consistent. Welded constructions can crack at the weld under overload or on rough roads, causing deformation and noise.
(4) Internal cable routing greatly improves safety at speed and better protects the braking system.
(5) A low-drag design makes pedalling easier.
