Description

Any Trail, Any TimeThe meaning of the term “All-Mountain Bike” is changing every day. To some it’s a sled racing enduros on the weekends, while to others it’s a hardtail ripping through endless singletrack. No matter how you define it, the AM30 is a best-in-class wheel for all over the mountain.Built for Speed, Built for ComfortWith a unique shape and ride-tune, the AM30 balances compliance and vibration damping for all-day comfort, while retaining quick cornering, acceleration, and gravity-rated strength. Offset spoke holes balance spoke tensions to help preserve the wheels’ quickness and the spoke’s integrity despite the rim’s additional compliance.Pinch-Flat Protected No Inserts RequiredThe AM30 helps to prevent pinch flats and ruined rides with our patent-pending Wide Hookless Bead. The Wide Hookless Bead dissipates impact energy preventing the rim from slicing the tyre. This means you can pick the tyres, casings, and pressures you want to run, instead of letting the fear of flats dictate these important decisions for you. The AM30 helps to prevent pinch-flats and ruined rides with our proven, patent-pending Wide Hookless Bead.•External Molded Spoke Holes and External Nipples•Reliability First, Serviceability Also First•Molded Spoke Holes (Patent #US 8,313,155) for more reliable wheel builds•Molded conical seats allow the nipples and spokes to articulate, preventing premature fatigue and failure•Asymmetric spoke holes for more balanced spoke tensions•External nipples for on-the-fly truingENVE have expanded their patented process of molding spoke and valve stem holes to include external spoke holes and nipples. Because carbon fiber gets its strength from continuous fibers, they route the fibers around the holes without cutting them which increases the strength of each spoke hole and reduces the likelihood of frequent truing. Additionally, by molding the spoke and valve stem holes, our rims achieve a greater strength to weight ratio.
