Do the durability and stiffness of ADA wheels result in a harsh ride?

0

This question is based a common misunderstanding of the role of wheels in contributing to ride quality. To dampen road shock, a wheel would have to flex in the vertical plane, and no wheel does this. Choice of tire and tire pressure will have a far greater impact on the perceived “harshness” or “comfort” of your wheels. However, ADA wheels’ lateral stiffness compared to traditional wheels is of real benefit to you. This lack of flex results in an extremely stable and precise-handling wheel that will bring you a new level of psychological “comfort” on high-speed, technical descents.
