What is it?
With a modern internal width of 26mm, this hookless rim mates perfectly with fast rolling cross-country tires ranging from 2.1” to 2.4”. At the center of the wheel are the Quest Disc MTB hubs (120 grams for the front and 245 grams for the rear) with their super quick five-degree engagement, tool free service and centerlock spline for disc brake rotors.
Pillar Wing 20 J-Bend spokes and alloy nipples are laced double-cross with 24 spoke front and 28 spoke rear. The ultra-light, yet durable, 370-gram rim measures 26mm internal, featuring a 2.8mm offset rim bed for better tension balance and a more responsive wheel build.
These specs total up to a 1380-gram wheelset that has a modern day wider rim design and can handle the rigors of cross country mountain bike riding. For more extreme terrain, the 30mm Ridgeline Enduro wheels are a perfect pick.

Trailblazer 29er
The Ultra-light carbon XC wheel
Cross Country mountain bikers racers will lust after the nimble, yet durable wheelset. If your events have you looking for a weight advantage while still riding off the pavement, the Trailblazer is the option for you.
Why do I need it?
Your mountain bike races are won on the uphills, not a timed segment downhill. Going lighter without sacrificing rim width and durability is key to better performance. On the gravel side, your gravel events feature more terrain than speed. Having a rim that handles the 35mm+ gravel tires, while giving you the impact protection of a strong hookless carbon rim. You are already gaining weight with a larger tire, offset that with a lighter wheel!
