Wanderlust Wheelset, 700c/650b, Astral Stage1 hubs

All-roads, All Day.  

The Wanderlust is a gravel wheel ready for epic mixed-surface rides or cyclocross. With an internal width of 22mm, it’s the “Goldilocks” wheelset offering easy frame clearance without compromising the ability to run a wide range of tire sizes. We improve the stiffness, strength and longevity of a wheel by using an asymmetric (ASYM) rim design than improves spoke tension balance by up to 30%. 

Our best-selling wheelset, it is available in 700c/29” and 650b/27.5” options. 

The Stage 1 hubset is custom made for Astral Cycling to provide a reliable, strong and light wheelset option. They’ll see you through all your adventures without breaking the bank.

All Astral Cycling wheels are hand-build in Eugene, Oregon and feature Tubeless Easy rims you can easily set up at home.
