Tune Your Freedom

 

After over a decade of dominating the alloy MTB market, the EX 511, XM 481 and XR 391 have all been upgraded! Featuring premium aluminium alloy and a high-strength, welded rim connection. A wide horn to reduce tyre damage and improve impact resistance and a tyre contact surface with a hump for improved support all contributing to a stronger, more durable rim.

All new 1700rims now feature asymmetrical rim profiles allowing for more even spoke tension, making the wheel more durable. No matter whether you prefer Cross Country, All Mountain or Enduro riding, each rim category has specific construction characteristics.

 

EX 441

Taking the unplanned lines means ensuring your rim is ready. Thanks to its asymmetrical shape for more equal spoke tension, its wider rim horns for improved impact resistance and its optimised construction for stability, the EX 441 is up to the task.

Available in different sizes with 28 or 32 spoke holes.

XM 431

The perfect rim for your next exploration adventure in the mountains. A strong aluminium construction, refined rim construction and wider horns provide improved impact resistance, whilst a redesigned tyre contact patch offers better lateral support of the tyre.

Available in different sizes 27.5 or 29".

XR 421

Whether going for your fastest lap on your local cross-country loop or chasing after your friends, you need to know that your rim will give you confidence when you need it most. The lightweight, asymmetric rim construction and flatter design ensures you can ride with confidence and speed lap after lap. With a 28mm inner width, the rim is optimised for tyres up to 2.7" wide.
