Era eMTB strikes a balance of weight efficiency, strength and traction-inducing compliance for e-bike riders and heavy hitters after burly carbon wheels. The rear wheel is intentionally overbuilt for the torque and heavier impacts of modern e-bikes, yet keeps the carbon snap-back you want out of corners.

Highlights

  • Carbon rim, 30mm internal and 37.2mm external width
  • 22.6mm-deep rear rim laced with 32 larger-gauge spokes
  • Vault J424 hub with 3-degree engagement and a reinforced steel axle
  • Anvil Edge bead wall for added tyre protection
  • Rated for 130Nm of drive-assist torque and a 150kg system weight
  • Tubeless ready, supplied taped with a valve
  • Backed by Race Face's Lifetime Warranty, crashes included

Built for boosting

Race Face laces 32 larger-gauge spokes to a 22.6mm-deep rim profile and a heavy-duty Vault hub with 3-degree engagement and a reinforced steel axle. Each wheel has the Anvil Edge bead wall for added tyre protection.

Playful under pressure

Heavier bikes usually mean sluggish handling, but Era eMTB keeps the carbon snap-back you need when exiting corners, with steering precision and a lively feel that belies the weight of your bike.

Race Face rates Era eMTB for a maximum drive-assist torque of 130Nm and a maximum system weight (rider, bike and gear) of 150kg.

Compatibility & fit

This rear wheel uses a 12x148mm Boost axle and a 6-bolt rotor mount. Choose 27.5in or 29in and the freehub that matches your cassette (Shimano Microspline or SRAM XD). 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.

Sizes & options

Every option is a black Era eMTB carbon rear wheel with a 6-bolt rotor mount.

Race Face Lifetime Warranty, crashes included. Race Face covers its wheels for their expected usable life of regular riding, including damage from crashes while you're riding, whether the wheel came on a new bike or was bought as an upgrade. It doesn't cover normal wear and tear such as hub bearings or dings and flat spots in alloy rims, intentional damage, or damage that doesn't happen while riding (a roof-rack strike, for example). For warranty support, return the product to Tune Cycles and we'll manage the claim with Ride Fox Australia, Race Face's Australian distributor.
