We promised you details on the new e*thirteen carbon wheels and here they are. The wheels will be available in TRS trail and LG1 downhill versions. They were tested and developed with the Polygon UR team and Iago Garay.
The carbon wheels use a hookless bead with a 27mm internal width. DH riders are looking at a wheelset weight of 1,885 grams. The rear axle can do 150 or 157mm spacing.
Oversize hub flanges reduce spoke stress and increase wheel stiffness. The 660 freehub mechanism has a fast 6-degree engagement.
The TRS Race carbon wheelset has 28 holes and can be converted from a 135 to a 142mm rear or come as with a Boost 148 rear. 650b and 29-inch options are available. TRS Race wheels weigh 1,690 grams in the 650b size.
At 1,749 EURO, the wheels will include a decal kit, come with tubeless tape, tubeless valves, and spare spokes.
