Race Face Turbine Mountain Bike Wheel

Yes, this wheel is designed for standard Boost spacing, featuring a 12 x 148mm thru-axle configuration. It is compatible with any modern mountain bike frame built to these specifications.

The asymmetric rim profile allows for more balanced spoke tension between the drive side and non-drive side of the wheel. This results in a stronger, stiffer wheel build that holds its true better under the heavy side-loading forces common in aggressive enduro riding.

The Vault hub features a 3-degree engagement angle, which is significantly faster than most stock hubs. This provides near-instant power transfer when you pedal, which is particularly helpful for technical climbs or ratcheting through rock gardens.

While the rims are optimized for a tubeless setup, they are compatible with standard clincher tires and inner tubes if you prefer that method. However, running them tubeless is recommended to take full advantage of the rim profile and puncture resistance.

The internal rim width is 30mm. This is a versatile width that pairs perfectly with modern trail and enduro tires ranging from 2.3 to 2.6 inches, providing a stable platform that prevents tire squirm during hard cornering.

The wheel ships with five spare spokes, which is a helpful inclusion for long-term maintenance. Because it uses standard straight-pull spokes, replacements are relatively easy to source at most local bike shops if you run out of spares.
