Encore 700C 5 Spoke Rear Wheel - White

The Encore 5-spoke rear wheel for fixie bikes is an example of the latest advances in carbon wheels. At Encore they have combined the latest technological advances and their 30-year experience in wheel-making in order to create a light, resistant wheel at a very reasonable price. With attention to details and an excellent performance, the Encore team have created a wheel whose quality greatly surpasses other carbon wheels in the market.

These rims can be used with carbon-compatible front brakes. Using normal brakes that aren’t compatible with carbon rims is extremely dangerous and invalidates any sort of warranty.

The size is 700c, meaning it is compatible with all road-bike tyres. The wheel comes with a special flip-flop hub, so that it can become either a fixed or a freewheel bike. Thus, you can assemble a freewheel gear on one side, and a fixed gear on the other side, to make it as versatile as possible.

You can mount 23, 25, 28 or 32 tyres and will need a 80mm-valve inner tube.

In 1988, what is now Encore was born, when Edward Ginoux, an entrepreneur and triathlon athlete, decided to create and manufacture a new bike wheel. He wanted light, aerodynamic wheels which still looked easy on the eye. That's how Encore was created. Since then, and for nearly 30 more years, Encore has been extremely successful all around the world. Since its creation, they have introduced great improvements in their 5-spoked wheels, which have become the standard of quality in the whole world.
