24" / 26" Wheels

Taking a lesson from the BMX book…Halo SAS wheels are destined to be THE Ultimate jump/DH wheels.

The new hub and axle kit options allow these wheels to fit virtually any bike.

SAS wheels use the Combat Evolved SAS rim with Double eyelets and Double System Joint, mated together with the high specification Halo Spin Doctor sealed bearing Disc hubs using Black ED finished spokes. (48 on rear for the ultimate strength, 36 on front for reduced weight.)

Available in Black anodised, White powder coat or Gold anodised ‘Disc’ style finish rims.

Note: Also available - Halo 24" SAS-DJD Singlespeed rear wheel.

- Halo 36mm SAS D.S.J. rims with double eyelets

- Black ED 14g spokes and black nipples

- Universal QR/20mm SB front hub

- Sealed bearing Disc rear hub

- 36 spokes on Front

- 48 spokes on Rear

- Black anodised, White powder coat, or Gold anodised finish (rims)

Of special note is the use of the Halo Spin Doctor Uni front hub in Halo sealed wheelsets. This is a 20mm front hub that is supplied with a QR9 axle set, allowing ONE hub/wheel to fit with either regular OR 20mm fork options.

In addition, the Front Spin Doctor hubs can also be used with NEW stub axles that effectively convert it into a nutted type axle in either 3/8" or 14mm.

Further, the Rear hub can also be converted to a regular 10mm nutted axle or into 14mm using axemen convertors.

The Spin Doctor rear hub also has an optional 'Saint' axle option available for compatibility with Shimano Saint rear mechs.

See Spin Doctor front or rear hubs section for more detailed compatability information.

Note: Anodised finish rims will accept V-brakes...but naturally, the brake surface colour finish will wear.

"This set-up is seriously stiff, which is part of the point of 24" wheels, but they are going to take a hell of a lot of abuse before you Taco them."

Dirt UK magazine March 2003 (24" 48 SAS)

"The weight is high, but we've seen truly horrible things done to these rims without them flinching one little bit, and that's what really counts."

MBUK Wheels grouptest budget winner (Halo SAS 24")

9 out of 10 MBUK magazine June 2004

"...the super-fat rim section spreads tyres out sideways for extra girth and anti-roll support, ticking all the boxes for every type of brutal, zero-tolerance riding. Heavy, but a great price for nigh on indestructible golden rollers."

MBUK Verdict 9 out of 10 (26" SAS Gold finish)

MBUK magazine June 2004

"...if you're looking for truly bombproof performance at a relatively low price, there's nothing to beat the Halo SAS wheels in either 24in or 26in versions. We've tried our best to fold or crack them and enlisted some legendary wheel cripsters to help but they're still straight. If you're a rider who dares, you'll certainly win with the SAS wheels, so they're our winners among the budget options on test."

MBUK Wheel Grouptest Verdict June 2004

"...we had a Norwegian record during Aare mountain mayhem. Øyvind Maehle on a hardtail did a 6m drop. He used 26" Halo SAS 48 spoke wheelset. The wheels are still true."
