Lighter than the original Fortus 30 but just as strong, the Hope Fortus 30 Single Cavity is a 29in trail and enduro rear wheel built on a black Pro 5 hub with a SRAM XD freehub body – machine built and hand finished in Barnoldswick, England.

Highlights

• Single-cavity 30mm rim – a lighter take on the Fortus 30 for trail and enduro
• Pro 5 hub with 108 points of engagement from an offset 6-pawl design
• 142 x 12mm wheel supplied with a 148mm Boost conversion kit (distributor bundle)
• SRAM XD freehub body to suit SRAM XD-driver cassettes
• Tubeless ready – 32mm tape, valve and wipe included

Single Cavity rim

The welded 6061-T6 aluminium rim keeps the 30mm internal (35mm external) width that supports 2.4"–2.8" tyres, but drops to a 20mm profile to save weight. Eyelets reinforce the spoke bed, and 32 black Sapim Race double-butted stainless spokes with silver brass nipples are laced J-bend.

Pro 5 hub

Engagement jumps from 44 to 108 points with an offset 6-pawl freehub, riding on stainless steel sealed cartridge bearings. A zero-drag labyrinth seal keeps dirt out, and the hub is fully serviceable.

Compatibility & fit

Ships ready for 142 x 12mm rear spacing, with a conversion kit to run it on a 148 x 12mm Boost frame. Needs a 6-bolt disc rotor and SRAM XD-driver cassettes. Converting spacing is best done in the workshop so the wheel is set up correctly for your frame – fitting is a separate service, book a workshop service.
