The Shimano SLX WH-MT600 is a trail-ready 27.5" tubeless-compatible front wheel built for riders who want proven Shimano reliability in a modern Boost format. Designed for aggressive trail and enduro riding, it pairs a wide-profile aluminium rim with a stiff 110x15mm Boost hub, delivering the lateral stiffness and tyre support that demanding terrain demands.

Highlights

• Wide 24mm internal rim: Supports 2.0–2.4" tyres at lower pressures for improved traction and comfort on rough terrain.
• Tubeless-compatible: Rim tape included — set up tubeless for reduced puncture risk and the ability to run lower tyre pressures.
• Boost 110x15mm thru-axle hub: Wider hub flange spacing increases spoke bracing angle for a stiffer, more responsive wheel.
• Centrelock disc mount: Splined rotor interface provides fast, precise rotor installation with a single lock ring — improves braking consistency and rigidity.
• 24-hole double-butted spokes: Straight-pull alloy double-butted spokes with aluminium nipples balance strength and weight.
• Welded aluminium rim: 21mm tall welded rim profile keeps weight down while providing a solid tubeless bead seat.

Construction & Design

The WH-MT600 rim is built from welded aluminium with a 21mm height, 24mm internal width, and 28.8mm external width. The wide internal profile keeps larger-volume tyres properly supported, reducing sidewall roll during cornering. Laced with 24 straight-pull double-butted spokes to aluminium nipples, the wheel is built to handle repeated hard impacts without sacrificing everyday durability.

Compatibility & Fit

Front axle: 110x15mm Boost thru-axle (O.L.D. 110mm). Brake mount: Centrelock disc only — a Centrelock-compatible rotor and lock ring are required (sold separately). Compatible with 9, 10, and 11-speed drivetrains via standard HG freehub body (front wheel — no freehub). Recommended tyre width: 2.0–2.4". Supplied with rim tape for tubeless setup. This is the front wheel only.
