Speed and Strength. A Gravel Wheel Without Limits. Gravel presents a unique set of demands for every rider: higher rolling resistances, terrain that can roll and vary as quickly as you can push the bike. When HED engineers began designing the Emporia GC3 Pro, these demands were top of mind. This led to increasing the width of the rim profile, enabling tire widths from 28mm all the way up to and past 55mm. Our team also understood that when you ride gravel, the unexpected is bound to happen. That’s why we took a hard look at the rim and tire bed, optimizing the surface for more seamless tubeless set up, creating a firm, reliable hold for tire beads. Our new hookless design also creates stronger rim walls, so when the unexpected happens, you can be confident that your wheels are ready to roll with the punches.
