Trusted to take the big(ger) hits
The strength of a wheel begins with the rim, so Race Face took its proven Turbine rim profiles and beefed them up to handle the increased weight and heavier impacts of full-power eMTBs.
Laced up for fight night
The rear wheel laces 32 larger-gauge Sapim J-bend spokes to a Vault hub (J424 for 12x148mm Boost, J422 for 12x157mm Super Boost) with 3-degree engagement and a steel axle for worry-free sends.
Compatibility & fit
Race Face rates Turbine eMTB for a maximum drive-assist torque of 130Nm and a maximum system weight (rider, bike and gear) of 150kg. Choose the axle that matches your frame and the freehub that matches your cassette (Shimano HG, Shimano Microspline or SRAM XD). 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.
Sizes & options
Every option is a black 30mm Turbine eMTB rear wheel with a 6-bolt rotor mount.
