DT Swiss FR 560

While it is engineered specifically for aggressive gravity and downhill riding, the FR 560 is a great choice for enduro riders who prioritize durability over weight savings. If you frequently ride harsh, rocky terrain and want a rim that won't buckle under pressure, this is a reliable option.

The 30mm internal width provides a wider base for your tire, which improves sidewall support. This allows you to run slightly lower tire pressures without the tire squirming in corners, giving you more traction and stability on technical trails.

The welded seam is significantly stronger and more consistent than a sleeved or pinned joint. This construction method creates a more uniform rim structure, which is essential for handling the high-impact forces of massive jumps and high-speed rock gardens.

The specific model detailed here is the 26-inch version. If you are looking for this rim profile in 27.5 or 29-inch diameters, you would need to check for those specific variants, as rim diameter is not adjustable.

A 32-spoke count is the industry standard for gravity riding because it offers the best balance of strength and stiffness. Unless you are a very lightweight rider looking to shave grams, the 32-spoke build is highly recommended for the durability required by this rim.
