Going full enduro...with carbon fiber? Convinced by the durability of their aluminium rims for enduro use compared to carbon fiber rims, Newmen started developing a 30mm carbon fiber rim initially meant for trailbike use. The result of this project is the NEWMEN Advanced SL A.30 rim with industry leading strength to weight ratio - even strong enough for EWS riders. Equipped with a new hub technology this is not only a very light, but also a very quiet wheelset. Maybe a new benchmark for the enduro sector?
Milkit tubeless kit and NEWMEN strip included.
Lower weight than the Evolution (aluminium) Sl A.30 rims with higher strength than Newmens Evolution SL E.G.30 rims. High wall thickness around the whole rim profile and a special fibre layup at the rim flanges in combination with 30mm inner width make for a perfect trail and enduro rim. The relatively shallow rim profile with 20mm height in combination with flexible Sapim D-Light spokes grant the same comfort and grip which the aluminium wheels are known for. Additionally the weight is lowered and the durability increased. While during heavy use an aluminium rim always gets small dents and flat spots which let the rim wear out over time, the Advanced SL A.30 still runs perfectly true with even spoke tension after thousands of meters of descending on an enduro bike. On top of that the risk of pinch flats is greatly reduced due to the wide 3.5mm rim flanges.
All new Advanced SL wheels are based around the revised Evolution SL hubs with FADE freehub. This new design is strong enough for Newmen to officially allow all FADE hubs for E-Bike use. At the sime time we they developed a pawl geometry which reduces noise to a minimum because as we all know: A quiet bike is a fast bike. You can now litereally hear the tires gripping and during mass-start races your competitors won't hear you closing up. The hubs have double sealed bearings with minimal tolerances which are generously filled with grease because good durability means less hassle and more fun.
All carbon fiber rims are covered by a lifetime no-questions-asked 50% crash replacement - of course also for second or third owners. NEWMEN ubeless strips and a MilKit tubeless set is included with every wheel.
