For eMTB riders who refuse to compromise on wheel quality, the DT Swiss FR541 on Hope Pro 5e hubs is the definitive freeride eMTB wheelset. The Pro 5e rear hub is Hope's eMTB-specific variant — its freehub is engineered for the unique stresses that electric drivetrains place on the rear hub, while the FR541 rim handles the additional weight and terrain demands of eMTB riding.

  • Hope Pro 5e eMTB rear hub — freehub specifically designed for electric bike torque and load demands
  • 108 POE, zero-drag labyrinth seals — near-instant engagement, no drag when coasting
  • DT Swiss FR541 alloy rims — 30mm internal, reinforced for impact resistance and pinch flat protection
  • Hope Pro 5 front hub — zero-drag labyrinth seal, Boost 15x110mm
  • DT Competition spokes and Squorx Prolock nipples — thread-locked for lasting tension

The Pro 5e rear hub uses an eMTB-specific freehub body designed to handle the higher torque transmitted by mid-drive motors. Combined with the FR541 rim's freeride-specific alloy profile and wide 30mm internal width, the result is a wheelset that keeps up with gravity terrain without compromising the reliability required of an electric mountain bike.

Fits Boost-spaced eMTB frames (12x148mm rear / 15x110mm front). Contact Tune Cycles for freehub body and rotor mount options before ordering.
