Sylvan Sidekick All Mountain Wheels break the old rules to revolutionize MTB wheels, by employing the same hub technology as our World Cup DH winning Grappler Sidekick wheels, combined with lightweight, low-profile, compliant Sylvan asymmetric All-Mountain rims.
Sidekick hubs feature an adjustable deadband that eliminates pedal kickback, enhancing suspension performance and filtering drivetrain shock and vibration before it reaches the rider.
Sylvan All-Mountain rims build up light and lively, with an asymmetrical spoke bed to allow lightweight spokes for maximum efficiency. Together, they offer increased comfort, enhanced speed and control, and a lively ride feel that puts wooden-feeling hoops to shame. Efficient and predictable suspension performance, added traction and tracking, reduced rider fatigue, and nearly silent hub operation create a more confident and immersive ride experience for both pros and enthusiasts.
Sidekick: Anti-kickback hub technology with adjustable deadband eliminates kickback and filters drivetrain vibration, improving ride feel and suspension performance
Free Speed: Exceptionally low drag and whisper-quiet operation of Sidekick gives free speed, carrying more momentum than other freehub systems
Race Level Builds: Handbuilt to exacting precision with Sapim D-light spokes and locking alloy nipples for ultimate performance and longevity

Sidekick Hubs
What is Sidekick?
The Sidekick Hub by e*thirteen is a revolutionary rear mountain bike hub designed to enhance suspension performance by eliminating pedal kickback and filtering chain vibration.
How does Sidekick Work?
A proprietary freehub mechanism disengages the drivetrain from the rear wheel when coasting, and an adjustable engagement deadband filters kickback and chain vibration before it reaches the pedals, isolating all pedal feedback from the suspension.
What is Pedal Kickback?
Pedal kickback occurs when suspension movement applies tension to the chain, causing unwanted pedal movement and compromising suspension performance.
