The 3T Discus 45|35 LTD Tubeless Wheelset combine the comfort of off-road wheels with the aerodynamics of road wheels. They are wide, strong, and fast while remaining aero despite their width, providing extra comfort and grip. These wheels are optimized for 28-30mm tires, making them a great choice for the 3T Strada. They also pair well with 32-40mm gravel tires for your 3T Exploro. The Discus is engineered with RealFast aerodynamics which allows these 45mm deep rims to offer nearly identical crosswind resistance to standard wheels with 60mm of rim depth. The rim is designed to be more balanced at the front and rear to cancel out aerodynamic disadvantages, leading 3T to claim it as the fastest wheel at 45mm.   

Many companies neglect hooks from their wheels in a quest to lower weight. 3T decided that for these all-around wheels, hooks should be added for ultimate safety. While it is not the norm to get flats in a tubeless clincher, wheels can be damaged when it does happen. For that reason, 3T added a Safety Ridge to these wheels. The Safety Ridge keeps the tire on the rim through a flat to avoid damage to your wheels. For extra safety, there is a Sealtight feature which keeps mud, water, and everything else out of the bearings to keep the wheels fresh. These wheels come with dual freehub bodies to accommodate whatever setup you decide to use. A SRAM xD-R body accommodates both xD and xD-R cassettes while the Shimano freehub houses Shimano 10 and 11-speed cassettes.
