We've been looking into Shimano's tubeless technology and we like what we've learned.

• Faster
• Less Rollng Resistance
• Dura Ace hubs
• Superior Spoke Tension

We'd like you to see what the hype is going to be. Starting June 2009, tubeless wheels will be available along side our 7850 carbon tubular wheels.

NEW Direct to Consumer Wheels Available

Echappe has partnered with Revolution Wheelworks from Philly and Williams Wheelsystems in the bay area to bring you a selection of "direct to consumer" wheelsets to demo before you buy. These are wheelsets that you can't get from a bike shop and they are priced without the middle man. Echappe sees this market really taking off, and we want to be able to provide you, the athlete, the same chance to demo this equipment as every other line we carry. Click the images below to check out our current selection.

be an educated consumer

You wouldn't buy a car without driving it, would you?

Wheelsets are expensive. They should be. A lot of R&D goes into them to make sure you have a superior product to the other wheels out there... but how do you know which ones work for you?

Testing equipment through Echappe Equipment is straight forward. Every rental earns you credit towards a final purchase. Once you've found the wheels you want, you apply the credit towards that purchase. Whether you want to buy new or used, its up to you.

Browse the selection, make your own choices.

We have options set up for you already, but if you have something specific in mind let us know. We are here to facilitate your next big purchase and we want to make sure you ride what you want.

Why make your final purchase with us?

For $40 you can have loaner wheels when you need them.

Thats right- if you pay $40 you can have a comparable set of wheels while your wheels are being serviced. Its like a car dealership. If your wheels need to be serviced or replaced and you purchased them with us, you can keep riding. Sweet, huh? For more info, please check out our How It Works page.
