TR300/290 29in Carbon Boost Wheelset

Carbon fiber is known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, making it an ideal material for bike wheels. It allows for lighter wheels that enhance performance, especially during trail riding. Lighter wheels improve acceleration and climbing efficiency, while the durability of carbon fiber ensures they can withstand rough terrain.

Tubeless tires eliminate the need for inner tubes, creating an airtight seal between the tire and rim. This allows you to run lower tire pressures, which enhances traction and comfort on uneven surfaces. Additionally, tubeless systems reduce the risk of pinch flats, meaning you can ride with more confidence on technical trails.

The Industry Nine Hydra Hub features a unique design with multiple pawls that engage quickly, providing rapid acceleration and responsiveness. This is particularly advantageous for technical climbing and quick maneuvers, allowing you to navigate challenging trails with ease and efficiency.

"Boost" refers to a specific axle spacing standard that enhances wheel performance. For example, the "15 x 110mm Boost" and "12 x 148mm Boost" measurements indicate the width of the hub and the spacing between the fork or frame. Boost spacing allows for wider rims and tires, improving stability and handling on rough terrain.

Spoke count refers to the number of spokes in a wheel, with options typically available in 24 or 32 spokes. A higher spoke count generally results in a stronger wheel, as the load is distributed more evenly. However, more spokes can add weight. Choosing between 24 and 32 spokes allows you to tailor your wheelset to your riding style and weight preferences.

If you prioritize lightweight performance and are an aggressive rider, 24 spokes may be suitable for you. However, if you often ride on rough terrain or carry heavier loads, opting for 32 spokes can provide added strength and durability. Consider your riding style and the conditions you typically encounter to make the best choice.
