Classic V-Wheel Technology
Why are the classic V-wheels special?
By help of the classic split wheel, the UST Classic Road ski becomes more stable and rolls straighter than
traditional flat wheel brands. It also dominates turning and eliminates wheel drift during hotter road ski
sessions.
UST Classic Road ski classic wheel middle colored ring provides you with the best stability during double
poling and when diagonal striding. Because of the softer rubber ring, it also provides you with a better
feeling on the road, especially in the moment of first contact with surface. For safety reasons, the softer
center material allows pesky pebbles to pass under or to the side of the wheel instead of causing further
unnecessary road vibration and sometimes complete wheel stopping from occurring.
The classic wheel features a skate-like profile that can curve and handle edging well, which in turn
makes cornering easier, especially in wet conditions by drastically reducing aquaplaning.
These wheels also have a larger diameter aluminum rim and more durable rubber, which makes the
wheel perform superior to wheels with lots of excess rubber and small rims that ‘drift.’
UST Classic Wheel Technology
UST offers three different wheel speed options.
#1 wheels fast speed (index 1) for less resistance, like on icy tracks in winter.
#2 wheels medium/standard speed (index 2) (most popular) middle resistance, like standard snow.
#3 wheels slow speed (index 3) for power-strength endurance training, replicating wet or deep snow
resistance conditions.
All UST Wheels are retrofittable onto other brands of road skis. UST offers specific spacer kits necessary
for wheels to fit properly. See spacer packages for more details. Inquiries welcomed.
