Convergence We Are 1 Wheels with Paul Hubs

Gravel in depth

Convergence We Are 1 Wanderer Carbon wheels on Paul FHub Disc hubs

Our gravel pick from the Convergence We Are 1 and Paul parts we build with. The Convergence We Are 1 Wanderer Carbon is a hookless carbon rim, 27mm inside, 21mm deep, about 440 grams in 700c, sized for about 40mm to 2.2 inch tires. We lace it to Paul FHub Disc hubs (front wheel) in 32 hole.

• A layup for each discipline. The Whisp, Sector, Triad, Deal, Fuse, Revive and Wanderer are separate rims for XC, trail, enduro, downhill, e-bike, gravel and bikepacking. Each is tuned for its own job rather than adapted from a single design.
• Less stress at the spoke head. Spoke holes are chamfered, and on the WORD the flanges are canted toward the rim. Paul does this to reduce stress on the head and elbow of each spoke.

Convergence We Are 1 Coup Carbon wheels on Paul FHub Disc hubs

Our mountain pick from the Convergence We Are 1 and Paul parts we build with. The Convergence We Are 1 Coup Carbon is a hookless carbon rim, 21mm deep. We lace it to Paul FHub Disc hubs (front wheel) in 32 hole.

• A wave-shaped rim wall. Convergence rims alternate faces angled 7.5 degrees on mountain models and 6 degrees on gravel and bikepacking models, so each nipple bed points straight at its hub flange. WR1 says this gives a straight spoke line and full contact around the nipple, so no one point takes the load.
• The hub that started single speed mountain bikes. Paul introduced the Wacky One-Speed Rear Device in 1996 and calls it the first purpose-built single speed mountain bike hub. Paul says its 52mm chainline is a standard that continues today.
