Please be aware that this rim is a lightweight XM designated rim designed for trail use, those looking for a rim suitable for more gravity focused riding are advised to check out the super strong EX 471

Unique process for the black coating produces a tough and durable finish

Spokes :

Sapim Race - 2/1.8/2 - Race spokes are double-butted and are used for the strongest and stiffest wheel builds. Handles abrasion from trail debris. Weight (64 pcs x 260 mm) 363 g

Sapim D-Light - 2/1.65/2 - Light, strong, economical. The D-Lights are double-butted and are the best choice for most riders. Does not stretch and twist poorly like 2/1.5/2mm spokes. They are more elastic and lighter than Race spokes. Weight: (64 pcs x 260 mm) 307 g

Sapim CX-Ray - 2/2.3/0.9/2 - The lightest and most resilient mountain bike spokes available. CX Rays are bladed, so they have aerodynamic properties and the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. Strong enough for competitive use. Weight: (64 pcs x 260 mm) 272 g

Nipples:

DT Swiss EX511 rims are designed to work with particular-shaped DT Swiss nipples called Squorx, so we only use suitable ones to keep their warranty valid. These have extended spoke heads with spline fitting inside the rim for increased strength and ease of truing with a unique tool.
2.0mm Silver Alloy DT Swiss Squorx - These are supplied with the rims and are fine but are susceptible to corrosion.
2.0mm Black Alloy Dt Swiaa Squorx  - a black anodised alloy version of the above - greatly improved long-term corrosion resistance.  2.0mm Black Brass DT Swiss Squorx Prolock - brass for ultimate strength and durability. Remember that brass doesn't take coatings well, so it can look worn after building due to surface contact with spoke keys.

Sapim Double Square Alloy - Our wheel builders' favourite top-quality alloy nipple with excellent durability and increased head length for strength and ease of trueing. Removal of rounded or broken nipples is more straightforward, too, using an internal spoke head.

All wheels for Enduro and DH are built in 3 cross lacing patterns with 32 holes. Wheels for XC and Trail riding are built 3 Cross in 27.5" and 2 Cross in 29" for additional lateral stiffness; if you want a different pattern, please let us know in the comments section at checkout.
