30 EM MX i9 Hydra 29in/27in Boost Wheelset

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"After months of punishing rides, the 30 EM with Hydra hubs still feels dialed. The carbon dampens harsh hits better than anything else I've ridden, and the crazy-fast Hydra engagement gives every pedal stroke instant power—perfect for techy climbs and sprint exits."

The 30 EM Mixed Mullet Wheelset with I9 Hydra hubs is engineered for riders who demand confident handling, all-day durability, and high-speed responsiveness. Built with FusionFiber carbon, the 30 EM soaks up vibrations and trail chatter for a smoother, more planted ride over harsh terrain. A 30mm internal width pairs perfectly with 2.3–2.6" aggressive trail and enduro tires, optimizing support and traction without sacrificing rolling speed.

The I9 Hydra hubs set a new standard with 690 points of engagement, delivering near-instant pedal response for tight technical sections and sprint efforts. Paired with Radial Crossply carbon layup and a mixed 29/27.5" wheel setup, the 30 EM maximizes the advantages of a larger front wheel for stability and a smaller rear wheel for agile handling.

From race-ready enduro lines to rugged backcountry adventures, this handbuilt wheelset offers the compliance, strength, and precision needed to thrive on the toughest trails—all backed by lifetime crash protection and made sustainably in the USA.
