Conquer technical trails with the 30 EM Mixed Mullet Wheelset built on I9 Hydra hubs

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve been running the 30 EM with I9 Hydra hubs on my enduro bike, and it’s everything I want from a mullet setup—snappy acceleration from the rear, buttery compliance up front, and a build that feels absolutely bulletproof when charging through rough lines."

The 30 EM Mixed Mullet Wheelset with I9 Hydra hubs gives us the confidence to push harder on the steepest, roughest trails. Using advanced FusionFiber carbon construction, these wheels deliver a uniquely damped ride that smooths out brutal terrain while staying lively when we need to pop and carve.

Built around the ultra-quick engagement of I9 Hydra hubs, the 30 EM keeps us locked in through techy climbs and ready to hammer out of every corner. The mullet design—with a 29-inch front and a 27.5-inch rear—offers the perfect blend of rollover speed and nimble handling. From big enduro days to park laps, this wheelset is ready to rip whatever we throw at it.
