ENVE

M70 Thirty 29in Wheelset

Go ahead and punch that sketchy line, but be aware that your nerves will let you down far before ENVE’s M70 Thirty 29in Wheelset will. It’s intended for hard-charging enduro riders, so ENVE built the rim using its proprietary extra-burly laminates and designed it with a hookless bead, which takes a hit better and holds onto your tires more securely than a traditional hooked bead.

Thought the M70 30 isn’t quite as wide as its HV siblings, it does weigh a little less, so riders who spend significant time climbing will dig having fewer grams to push uphill. ENVE’s legendary for its attention to carbon-fiber detail, and the M70 30 is built to the same exacting specs as every other hoop out of the company’s Utah HQ. Holding it all together, the DT Swiss 240 hubs engage almost instantly, so putting down one extra pedal stroke to clear that gap or clean that staircase is virtually as fast as thinking about it.
