MoMag – Campagnolo
Campagnolo continues to innovate to offer cyclists increasingly efficient technologies. Among these advances, the system MoMagTM (Mounting Magnet) provides a clever solution to improve wheel design. This patent allows to obtain a rim without holes on the upper wall, while retaining the advantages of a traditional nut shelving.
How does the MoMag work?
The principle of MoMag based on a simple and intelligent system:
- The nuts are inserted inside the rim through the valve hole.
- A magnet guides the nuts to their point of hanging with the rays.
- The wheel is assembled with optimum tension while preserving the integrity of the rim.
This allows for a completely homogeneous rim, without holes, and therefore without points of structural weakness.
The advantages of MoMag
1. More homogeneous and more resistant rim
The absence of holes on the upper wall gives the rim a better rigidity and longer life. By avoiding structural weaknesses caused by drilling, Campagnolo improves fatigue resistance and wheel durability.
2. Weight gain and removal of rim bottom ribbon
For rims designed for air-chamber tires, the MoMagTM system eliminates the need for rim bottom ribbon. This represents a significant weight gain and simplifies tyre assembly.
3. Higher Ray Tension and Better Reactivity
The possibility of exercising higher voltage on the spokes allows to increase lateral stiffness and reactivity of the wheel. This results in better power transmission and greater steering accuracy.
4. Simplified maintenance
Using traditional nuts with the MoMagTM system greatly facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the spokes. No more need to completely disassemble the wheel: access to nuts is fast and easy.
Which Campagnolo wheels are equipped with the MoMagTM?
Campagnolo has integrated this technology on several high-end wheel models:
- Bora WTO carbon wheels : Destined to competition, they combine lightness and aerodynamics.
- Shamal Carbon : A versatile and efficient wheel for demanding cyclists.
- Rising : Ideal for gravel, with increased strength and strength.
- Ultra Hyperon : Designed for climbers, with maximum weight reduction.
Conclusion: MoMagTM, a technological evolution for more efficient wheels
Technology MoMagTM of Campagnolo brings a significant improvement in rigidity, durability and performance. By removing holes on the rim while maintaining a simple and efficient mounting, Campagnolo offers an ideal solution for cyclists who want to optimize their equipment.
