  • Rated for up to 130Nm of drive-assist torque and a 150kg system weight
  • Vault hub with 3-degree engagement and a steel axle
  • Tubeless ready, supplied taped with a valve
  • Backed by Race Face's Lifetime Warranty, crashes included

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.

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.
