  • Will the free hub fit a 12 speed hg cassette?
    Question asked by Lee on 18/10/2025 16:03:40

  • Can I use Schwalbe Marathon plus with these wheels?
    Question asked by David on 26/07/2025 15:34:29

    No these wheels will not work with Schwalbe Marathon tyres.

    The Giant SLR 2 50 Disc uses hookless rims (22.4 mm internal width, tubeless-ready). These require tyres that have passed Giant’s hookless compatibility test protocol—ensuring the bead and pressure spec are safe for hookless rims .

    Per official specifications, Schwalbe Marathon Plus is not included in Giant’s approved tyre list, and is not marketed as hookless-compliant.
