The Sidekick Flux Aluminum Wheelset shares its Sidekick anti-kickback mechanism and 6069-AL rim extrusions with our Pro-level aluminum wheels, in a more value-oriented, equally resilient build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSidekick Hubs use a 9°\/13°\/18° adjustable deadband to eliminate pedal kickback at the source, absorbing chainstay growth and filtering drivetrain shock and vibration before it reaches you — improving both suspension performance and ride feel. The low-profile Flux rims add engineered compliance for better traction, control, and all-day comfort. Lightweight Flux 43 rims up front maximize compliance, while the more robust Flux 54 rims out back balance comfort with added durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAnd because every Sidekick hub runs near-silent, you get a more immersive ride in the backcountry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe result: a Trail and All Mountain wheelset that upgrades any full-suspension bike with a playful, dynamic feel — at a genuinely incredible price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear-tuned build\u003c\/strong\u003e — Drive-side stiffness and reinforced lacing deliver crisp power transfer with minimal flex when the rear wheel is loaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFreehub options\u003c\/strong\u003e — Choose XD, Microspline, or HG to match your drivetrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSidekick anti-kickback hub\u003c\/strong\u003e — Eliminates kickback and filters drivetrain vibration for better ride feel and suspension performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnhanced comfort and control\u003c\/strong\u003e — Ultra-compliant, low-profile Flux Aluminum rims add radial compliance and traction without sacrificing steering precision\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalanced front\/rear tuning\u003c\/strong\u003e — Lighter Flux 43 Aluminum rims up front boost compliance, bump absorption, and traction; robust Flux 54 Aluminum rims out back add durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree speed\u003c\/strong\u003e — Exceptionally low drag and whisper-quiet operation keep you carrying more speed than other freehub systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLively ride feel\u003c\/strong\u003e — Low profile height plus a double-butted, 28-spoke build makes for a responsive, dynamic ride\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandbuilt precision\u003c\/strong\u003e — AL 6069 sleeved rims, double-butted spokes, and secure lock brass nipples for performance, longevity, and value\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Tubeless valves not included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thunder Mountain Bikes","offers":[{"title":"29\" \/ Boost (15 x 110\/12 x 148mm) \/ Shimano HG","offer_id":49250566013163,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"29\" \/ Boost (15 x 110\/12 x 148mm) \/ Shimano Micro Spline","offer_id":49250566045931,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"29\" \/ Boost (15 x 110\/12 x 148mm) \/ SRAM XD","offer_id":49250566078699,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"MX \/ Boost (15 x 110\/12 x 148mm) \/ Shimano HG","offer_id":49250566111467,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"MX \/ Boost (15 x 110\/12 x 148mm) \/ Shimano Micro Spline","offer_id":49250566144235,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"MX \/ Boost (15 x 110\/12 x 148mm) \/ SRAM XD","offer_id":49250566177003,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/8251\/9219\/files\/e13-sylvan-wheelset-1.jpg?v=1787077327","url":"https:\/\/thundermountainbikes.com\/products\/sylvan-sidekick-flux-aluminum-wheelset","provider":"Thunder Mountain Bikes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
