A precision one-piece carbon system that gives you more speed with more control in every situation.
The goal with our Silverton SL cross country wheelset was to build the fastest, lightest wheel possible. Our engineers studied lateral and torsional stiffness, as well as mass distribution, to come up with the optimal geometry and carbon layup. They developed a complex unique mold structure which enables both construction and the tensioning of the one piece wheelset, at a featherweight 1280g.
Syncros sponsors the SCOTT-SRAM MTB racing team for cockpits, saddles, seatposts and now wheels. The team have the option of either a 26mm or a wider 30mm inner width Silverton SL for cross country racing.
The Syncros Silverton SL wheel is super light but the benefits don’t just stop here. The construction removes weight from the rim allowing for super fast acceleration. It’s also stiff allowing for great power transfer, tracking and in
particular cornering. Perfect for World Cup racing.

Fiber continuity
The more continuous fiber that is utilized in the construction the higher the Torsional Stiffness. With the SL’s one-piece construction a single spoke actually runs from rim to rim.
Spoke Cross
With its one piece construction the SL’s spokes are actually woven at the intersection. This further adds to the torsional stiffness.
These wheels never go out of true and need no maintenance with spoke nipples or rim tape. Tubeless ever-ready means it takes seconds to mount a tire while quality bearings lead to great durability and performance. The two rim widths offer
choice for tire and conditions too. It’s a bit of a mechanics dream to be honest.

Spoke tension
Contributes to the lateral stiffness of the wheel. As a result of our one-piece molded construction and our unique pre straining process we can achieve higher spoke tension then other carbon wheels, resulting in a more lively wheel and a more responsive ride.
Spoke strength
Our carbon spokes weigh 3.5g each as oppose to 5.7g for a steel spoke and yet are 35% stronger. Unlike traditional spoke fixation the Silverton SL’s spokes are bonded directly to the rim and pull from the opposite side of the hub and rim, increasing torsional rigidity.

LOW INERTIA
Low inertia
Not all 1290g wheels are created equal. Our unique construction method moves weight from the outside of the wheel around the rim to the inside of the wheel near the hub resulting in faster acceleration.
Construction
Carbon fiber, tubeless ever ready, hookless rim
As the rim is constructed in one hollow piece, the only drilling is for the valve stem resulting in a fully tubeless ready system. The hookless bead provides increased impact protection and reduced pinch-flats.
Rim profile
Our rim profile allows the spoke fibres to wrap around the rim sidewall for added strength and has been optimized for lateral and torsional rigidity.
Hubs
Our wheels comes with high quality DT Swiss internals and the Star Ratchet freehub for top performance and reliability.
