Crankbrothers Synthesis Enduro Alloy Rim

The rim is engineered to provide a stable tire interface, which helps reduce rolling resistance and improves cornering grip. This design specifically enhances tracking and stability when you are riding at higher speeds on technical terrain.

Yes, it is specifically optimized for enduro riding and racing. The construction uses 6013 T6 alloy and features a welded and sleeved joint, which provides the structural integrity needed to handle the peak loads and impacts common on challenging descents.

With an inner rim width of 29.5 mm, this rim is versatile enough to support a wide range of modern enduro tires. It is generally best paired with tires between 2.3 and 2.6 inches wide to maintain the intended profile and handling characteristics.

This rim features a standard 32-hole drilling, making it compatible with most high-quality mountain bike hubs on the market. You can build this rim with standard J-bend or straight-pull spokes, depending on your hub choice.

This specific rim is a 29-inch diameter model. If you are building a mullet setup, you would need to source a separate 27.5-inch rim for the rear wheel, as this product is not designed for that smaller diameter.
