Taking the hits
The Atlas rim is built from 6069 alloy with a dent and flat resistant bead design, to stand up to all the gravity-fed mayhem you can throw at it. Offset spoke beds are laced with burly double-butted straight-pull spokes for a race weekend's worth of stiffness, balance and hassle-free riding.
A hub above
The Vault hub has a stiff oversized shell, a wide bearing stance and 3-degree engagement, for lightning-fast pickup.
Compatibility & fit
Two axle families are offered. 12x148mm Boost versions come with a Shimano Microspline or SRAM XD freehub. 12x150/157mm versions come with a Shimano HG or SRAM XD freehub; Race Face installs the endcaps for 12x157 and includes 12x150 endcaps as spares. The hub takes a 6-bolt disc rotor. This is a single wheel; tyre, disc rotor and cassette aren't included. Fitting isn't included. Our Marrickville workshop can fit the wheel, set it up tubeless and move your rotor and cassette across as a separate service.

Every option is a black 30mm Atlas rear wheel on the Vault hub.
