CYURE GOES TO CHICAGO 12/10/2025

I never thought I would like an aero wheel but this is my favorite wheel so far. I love the factory coordinates and the fact that they gave it the texture of a vinyl record in the middle.

I'd like to see them as 18s with 33s wrapped on them.

I like it and want it in gunmetal gray but interesting they’ve referenced it as a record and also a vault door which confuses me but that’s fun of design-each person sees something different.

Agree that a gunmetal color would be very nice. Pair that with a deep pearlescent dark green (something like Carbon Green Pearl from KP pigments) and a rich brown interior...

I can’t wait to see a 33 on an 18.

Love that!

I am curious what a Traveler looks like on 33". 33" on 18" even better.

I really like the Molle panels in the back. I’m hoping we get SM branded accessories. Bags that can be used for first aid kits and tools. Straps for a fire extinguisher, etc.

You saw these up-close?
Do you know if these can handle simple bungee cords with a fairly tight radius of curvature? Like what comes with the typical bungee cord bundle?

I just asked my husband. He said that they looked removable to him. There’s two small channels it fits in on the bottom and then there’s that little knob on either side that you turn to hold it in place. He said it looked like there was a gap so for sure straps and he said he thought bungee cords as long as the hook wasn’t too thick it should fit.

Here’s another picture from Nats as well.

It would be nice if ratchet straps with various hook sizes and shapes could hook in too.
I’m not a huge fan of purpose-built / proprietary attachment hardware.

Oh I agree. Especially when people already have a bunch of that stuff. No reason to buy it all again, even if it is Scout colors.

These are images from reveal showing para chord anchors, scout orange Velcro straps and the other which my recollection is the outer ring would handle a regular bungee hook but certainly not a mini bungee cord my thinking, so long as it doesn’t rub is using the Velcro straps that you use to snug electrical and computer wiring together. Some of these are different styles so will be interesting if the design evolves

Those are all fine.

I have, literally, thousands of feet of straps, bungee cords, pieces of webbing, ratcheting straps, cables, paracord, etc. I know I should replace much of it with newer stuff, but I’m never not going to have a bunch of miscellaneous “junk” for tying things down. I can see that several types would work, but there are questions about others.

For example, if I want to strap something using a ratchet strap from port to starboard, the few attachment points I can see look too narrow to slip the hook of a ratchet strap into. One side doesn’t matter, I can feed the flat strap through, but the side with the ratchet will struggle to find purchase.

Ultimately it probably doesn’ t matter. I almost never have an ideal anchor. I’d probably just get some t-bolt eyes or hooks and bolt them to the floor tracks rather than use the MOLLE panels when I needed to have a real solid anchor for something big.

I can’t imagine a ratchet strap working per your comment. Too tight to get the mechanism around it. Though I hope they have lock down mounting loops to fit in the floor tracks. Give a little more flexibility

Looks like those will work nicely for all but the large ratchet straps, as mentioned.

If you can get the hood of a ratchet strap through the holes you could probably still get a reasonable use of it you would just have to connect the hooks together to the straps

Okay so I’ve decided no roof rack. But I’m torn between the rails and nothing.

Question, do we think it will be offered with nothing or will it just be a rails or rack choice?

The rails. They are pretty. Just with a glass top I don’t think I will be putting stuff up there and attaching it to the rails.

I am going with no rack. Rails ONLY if they are low flush mount, otherwise no rails. I am going for the glass roof as well.

These rails, I was told, add as much height as the rack does.

If those are the rails....Then no rails for sure. Roof racks and these rails can negatively impact a vehicle's aerodynamics.
