ENVE AG28 Foundation Wheel

The AG28 is designed for 650b gravel and adventure bikes using a 12x142mm thru-axle and Centerlock disc brakes. Please verify that your frame supports 650b wheels and that your drivetrain is compatible with the SRAM XDR hub body before purchasing.

The wide hookless bead is engineered to reduce the likelihood of pinch flats by providing a wider surface area for the tire sidewall to rest on. This allows you to run lower tire pressures safely, which significantly improves traction and comfort on rough, technical terrain.

While these wheels are optimized for a tubeless setup to maximize the benefits of the hookless bead and pinch flat resistance, they are compatible with clincher tires using inner tubes. However, ensure your tires are approved for use on hookless rims.

The high-engagement 60t steel ratchets provide near-instant power transfer when you start pedaling. This is particularly useful in technical, low-speed sections where you need immediate engagement to navigate obstacles or steep, punchy climbs.

Yes, the AG28 is built to rigorous impact standards specifically for the demands of gravel and adventure riding. Its carbon construction and molded spoke hole technology are designed to handle the extra stress of loaded bikepacking setups while maintaining durability.
