six s spoke wheel
WHEEL:
The Drive Six Gravel wheelset has stunning looks and great aerodynamic styling. The one-piece design with 6 carbon spokes increases stiffness and power transfer. Carbon spokes transmit power more directly than steel spokes resulting in a more efficient wheel that can corner and accelerate like no other. Silver decals with the unique marbling appearance sets the Drive Six Gravel wheels apart from the rest of the pack. The wheels are light and have the benefit of never needing truing!
Six s spoke Rim type
RIM TYPE
With its hookless full carbon and tubeless ready rim, Drive Six Gravel is compatible with 700*30C–700*50C tires.
*In accordance with the recommendations and standards implemented by the ETRTO, tires fit on hookless rims should not have a pressure exceeding 73 PSI(5 bar). The Drive Six is not compatible with tires requiring a minimum pressure higher than this value. Overinflation could cause a blowout and cause potential injury.
drive six gravel hub
HUBS
The hubs of the Drive Six Gravel are made of forged and machined 7075 aluminum, making them stronger. Fanuc CNC machines are used to precisely machine the hubs to increase the life of the bearings and reduce rolling resistance. The freehub uses a star ratchet mechanism that comes standard with 36 teeth. This allows for hassle-free freehub servicing.

Been using the wheels and im impressed with its lateral stiffness and rigidity ,, solid acceleration under pedaling.
I installed 40mm tires and compensate with a lower tire pressure..like i said imo this wheels is better suited on gravel bike with front suspension and or suspension seatpost. . Could have been 5 stars but as i got the wheelset from the box and have it installed by my mechanic , he was wondering why it doesn’t have the center lockring which normally comes with the wheelset.. i tried emailing them but to no avail it wasn’t answered.. pre delivery inspection should be prompt and parts should be meticulously checked before shipping….was wondering about their product support and aftersales…

Hello Luis. Thank you for sharing your experience with the Drive Six Gravel. It is great to know that you are impressed by their lateral stiffness and acceleration.
Regarding the missing lockring, we apologize for the inconvenience. Earlier this week, we send an email to your Yahoo address, but perhaps it wasn’t received. We just sent another one to both the Yahoo and the email used for this review and would be happy to get this issue sorted out.

I prefer this wheel set like a road with 32mm Conti GP5000. Some people told me that i am crazy, that this type wheelset is too tough on termac. Lie, this wheelset is amazing. Fast rolling and light weight. When i go to 30km/h + wheelset nicely hold speed. And looks awesome. I blow at 70psi. I will try gravel tire 40mm.
