Bontrager Line Pro TLR MTB Rim

This rim is specifically engineered as an original equipment replacement for the Bontrager Line Pro 40 wheelset. While it may technically fit other hubs with a 28-hole drilling pattern, we recommend using it only for its intended replacement purpose to ensure structural integrity and proper spoke tension.

The 41mm internal width is designed for high-volume, plus-sized mountain bike tires. It provides excellent sidewall support for tires typically ranging from 2.6 inches to 3.0 inches wide, helping to prevent tire squirm during aggressive cornering.

Yes, for the best results, you should use the complete Bontrager TLR system, which includes their specific rim strips, valve stems, and sealant. This ecosystem is designed to create a secure, airtight seal that is difficult to replicate with generic aftermarket tubeless tape.

Absolutely. The double-wall alloy construction is built to handle the rigors of mountain biking, offering a balance of durability and impact resistance. It is a robust option for riders who need a reliable wheel that can withstand technical terrain.

While the rim is optimized for a tubeless setup, you can certainly use it with a standard inner tube if necessary. Just ensure you use a rim strip to protect the tube from the spoke holes and any sharp edges.
