ethirteen Sylvan Race Carbon All Mountain Rim Info

Sylvan Race Carbon All Mountain Rim marks e*thirteen’s first step into asymmetric carbon rim design, delivering a ride feel that is light, responsive, and confidence-inspiring when the trail turns rough. Built for aggressive trail and all-mountain bikes, this rim balances everyday efficiency with the durability needed for fast descents and hard hits.

The asymmetric profile is engineered to create near-equal spoke tension between drive and non-drive sides, resulting in a stronger wheel with more consistent handling characteristics. A 30mm internal width supports modern tire profiles from 2.3” to 2.6”, enhancing cornering stability, traction, and control across varied terrain.

A relatively low rim height increases vertical compliance, allowing the rim to absorb trail chatter and impacts more effectively. This design reduces rider fatigue, improves grip on technical terrain, and delivers a more lively, controlled ride feel compared to taller, stiffer profiles.

The Sylvan Race Carbon All Mountain Rim is tubeless compatible with a hookless bead and features a dedicated valve dock interface to ensure a reliable seal with tubeless valves. When built with double-butted spokes and alloy nipples, the result is a wheel that feels responsive under power while remaining composed in demanding conditions.

Like all e*thirteen carbon rims, the Sylvan Race Carbon All Mountain Rim is backed by e*thirteen’s Lifetime Carbon Rim Warranty, giving riders the confidence to push harder and ride faster, knowing their equipment is built to last.
