Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

The Traverse SL II delivers lightweight performance perfect for riders who want to ascend fast and descend with control.

This wheel features four key innovations. Optimized front and rear rim layups boost strength by 15% and 25%, respectively. Shallow rim geometry increases vertical compliance by 21% for better impact absorption. The engineered “ankling” enhances traction, stability, and control. Finally, the FlatStop rim bead requires 85% more force to pinch flat, virtually eliminating "snake bites.”

Front and rear-specific rims ride smoother, yet are 15% stronger upfront and 25% in the rear. The 21% more vertical compliance absorbs bumps smoothly, keeping you in control. The Roval ThreadBed Valve eliminates compression nuts, air loss from rim flex, makes tyre set-up easier, and reduces sealant clogs.
