ENVE Composites AM30 Foundation Rear Wheel

The AM30 rear wheel uses a 12mm x 148mm Boost axle spacing. Please verify that your frame is designed for this standard before purchasing.

Yes, this specific model is equipped with a Shimano Micro Spline freehub body, making it compatible with Shimano 12-speed mountain bike drivetrains.

The 30mm internal width is optimized for modern, high-volume trail tires. It provides a wider base that supports the tire sidewalls better, reducing tire squirm during hard cornering and allowing you to run lower pressures for increased grip.

While it is optimized for tubeless use to maximize traction and flat protection, you can technically run tubes if necessary. However, the rim profile is specifically designed to seat tubeless tires securely, so tubeless is the recommended configuration.

The INNERDRIVE hub features a high-engagement system, which means there is very little 'dead space' when you start pedaling. This provides near-instant power transfer, which is a significant advantage when you need to ratchet your pedals over technical obstacles or steep, rocky sections.

No, this wheel is designed for Center Lock brake rotors. If you currently use 6-bolt rotors, you will need to switch to Center Lock rotors or use a 6-bolt to Center Lock adapter.
