The Essentia 40 is the ultimate all-road wheel. Destined to erase the borders between road and gravel, the hookless rim is designed to maximize comfort and control with wider tubeless tires using lower pressures. Fast, lightweight, ultra-versatile and produced in France at our workshop in Loriol-sur-Drôme. The Essentia benefits from the full extent of CORIMA's unmatched experience and capabilities in creating wheels with the ultimate performance, reliability, and design aestetics.

The best of both worlds
This is a carbon rim with a unique design, developed to combine the performance and lightness of a road wheel with the comfort and versatility of a gravel wheel.
With a 40mm depth rim and appreciable lightness (1600gr / 3.5lb per wheelset) it handles perfectly on the asphalt while the hookless rim with a 23mm internal width is designed to accommodate 28-50mm wide tubeless tires so you can adapt your choice of rubber and pressure to your goals and the terrain of the day. Rough roads, gravel tracks or wet cobblestones? Worry no longer, with the Essentia 40 you have the wheelset it takes to set your own limits.
A hookless rim
The Essentia 40 is designed for use with tubeless tires for improved comfort, grip and puncture resistance. At CORIMA we have chosen the hookless technology for the rim. The straight inner profile saves weight and is more versatile, while the lack of hooked sides also means the wheels are sturdier and offer better handling by allowing the tire to perfectly follow the shape of the rim.
As a result, the Essentia 40 is formidable on asphalt combined with 28mm tires and can accommodate gravel tires up to 50mm to take on the most demanding surfaces.
