WeAreOne The Deal DH Carbon Rim

We Are One Deal Carbon - World Cup Proven DH Rim

The We Are One Deal is built for the clock. Where the Triad focuses on Enduro efficiency, the Deal is reinforced with a significantly heavier carbon layup and advanced ZRT composite films to survive the massive G-outs and rock strikes found on tracks like Fort William or Mont-Sainte-Anne. It is arguably the most resilient rim We Are One has ever produced.

World Cup Performance

The Deal is optimized for Precision and Confidence. By utilizing the sinuous Convergence profile, We Are One has achieved a unique balance: high lateral stiffness for pinpoint accuracy in high-speed berms, paired with a tuned vertical compliance that reduces trail chatter. This "dampened" feel is a secret weapon for DH racers, as it significantly reduces arm pump and hand fatigue over long, brutal race runs.

The We Are One Deal is the ultimate gravity-focused rim in the Convergence lineup, specifically engineered for World Cup Downhill (DH) racing. It is the direct successor to the legendary Strife, designed to handle the most violent compressions and square-edge hits on the planet while maintaining the "quiet" and dampened ride quality that defines the Convergence series.

Our Wheelbuilders' opinion:

For a professional DH setup, the Deal rims are most commonly paired with Industry Nine Hydra or DT Swiss 240/350 hubs (specifically the DEG versions with DF upgrade). Because DH bikes generate immense lateral forces, we strongly recommend using Sapim Race or DT Competition 2.0/1.8 double-butted spokes to ensure the wheel stays true even after a season of bike park laps.

THE DETAIL

Convergence Technology: The wavy rim bed ensures perfect 7.5-Degree nipple alignment, eliminating the "point loading" that causes spoke failure in high-torque DH situations.
DH-Specific Laminate: Locally reinforced in critical impact zones, making it roughly 32% stronger against direct hits than previous generations.
Mullet-Ready: Available in both 29" and 27.5" to suit modern mixed-wheel DH race bikes.
Superior Energy Dissipation: The shallow 18.5mm depth (on the 29") allows the rim to deform slightly under extreme loads rather than cracking, essentially acting as a secondary suspension.
No-Questions Lifetime Warranty: If you case a massive jump or smash a rock and crack the rim while riding, We Are One will replace it for free.
