ENVE XC28

While the XC28 is optimized for cross-country racing, its impact-resistant carbon construction and 28mm internal width make it robust enough for aggressive trail riding. It balances the lightweight needs of a racer with the durability required for technical terrain.

The wide hookless bead design is engineered to reduce the likelihood of pinch flats. By creating a wider, flatter surface for the tire bead to rest on, it prevents the tire from being sliced against the rim edge during hard impacts.

Yes, these wheels are fully tubeless-ready. The rim design is optimized for a secure, airtight fit, making the tubeless setup straightforward with standard tubeless tape and sealant.

The INNERDRIVE system provides positive, near-instant engagement when you pedal. This responsiveness is particularly noticeable on technical climbs or when you need quick power bursts to clear obstacles on the trail.

The hub uses a standard sealed bearing system, which is generally straightforward to service. However, because the rims feature molded external spoke holes, you will need standard tools for truing, though the design makes spoke replacement easier than systems with internal nipples.

The XC28 uses the standard Boost spacing of 15mm x 110mm for the front and 12mm x 148mm for the rear. As long as your frame and fork are designed for Boost spacing and Centerlock rotors, these wheels will fit.
