Synthesis 2 Enduro 29in Alloy Boost Wheelset

We like the Synthesis 2 Enduro Alloy Wheelset because it's optimized to address specific requirements for mountain biking performance. It mixes the right amount of compliance with maximized grip and control in turns. With this wheel, we're seeing a wide inner rim width that accommodates wider tires, plus a tubeless setup that allows us to run lower tire pressures. The front wheel is laced with 28 spokes and is slightly wider, which allows for slightly more compliance and vibration damping for our ride. The rear wheel is laced with 32 spokes and is a tad narrower for a bit more durability and greater tracking at speed.
