SLR 1 40 DISC
SWIFT AND SURE
Current price: $1,000 RRP - $1,500 RRP
SWIFT AND SURE
The SLR 1 40 is a performance road wheel offering all-day efficiency with increased power transfer and improved control.
Highlights
1
Hookless Rim Design
2
OPTIMIZED CARBON LAY-UP
Optimized carbon layup features high-tensile strength carbon fiber placed at the most crucial points to provide stiff and lightweight wheels.
3
40MM RIM DEPTH
40mm hookless rim profile provides added aerodynamic advantage.
4
Dynamic Balanced Lacing (DBL)
Dynamic Balanced Lacing (DBL) technology makes a stiffer, more efficient wheel with outstanding power transfer. The enlarged DBL hub flange increases spoke bracing angles, boosting overall transmission and lateral stiffness for better power transfer.
5
2.8MM RIM BEAD WIDTH
2.8mm rim bead width enhances rim stiffness for better tire support when cornering.
6
22.4MM INNER RIM WIDTH
Designed for high volume road tires, the 22.4mm wide inner rim width creates a larger tire contact patch, resulting in better traction and impact absorption for more confidence and control.
7
GIANT LOW-FRICTION HUB
Giant low-friction hub with precision machined internals eliminates excessive bearing load, reducing bearing friction and lowering rolling resistance to minimize power loss.
8
HIGH-TENSILE STRENGTH AERO SPOKES
High-tensile strength aero carbon spokes on both front and rear wheels of the SLR 0 40 reduce lateral flex for more effective acceleration and climbing.

Techs & Features
Hookless Rim Design
Hookless rim design enhances overall durability, offers a wider inner rim width without adding extra weight and also helps create a more round tire shape providing superior grip and handling as well as added sidewall support when cornering. Additionally, without the rim hook to “push” the tire bead inward, hookless rim design offers a more seamless airflow between the tire and the sidewall of the rim, resulting in less drag and improved aero performance when compared to standard hook-type rims.
Dynamic Balanced Lacing
Engineered with more leverage on the “pulling” spoke and less on the “pushing” spoke, DBL technology maximises the performance of the wheel while it’s in a dynamic state by forming a perfect balance of spoke tension to deliver optimal transmission stiffness and braking performance.
Low Friction Hub
Giant uses precision machined internals to eliminate the power loss that occurs through the pressure from the hub internals on the bearings, reducing friction and minimizing rolling resistance.
