Front-end Compliance
Synthesis Enduro Carbon front rims feature a bespoke rim profile, internal width, and carbon layup to provide lateral and vertical compliance characteristics where you need it most. Plow through rock gardens and root sections with increased directional control and reduced unwanted torsional feedback through the handlebars. And, a wider internal 31.5mm internal width allows for a large tire contact patch, resulting in more grip and confidence on the trail.
Rear-end Stability
Synthesis Enduro Carbon rear rims feature a reinforced rim profile and carbon layup to provide additional stiffness and stability when loaded hard into corners, and also results in a robust wheel with superior impact resistance. A slimmed down internal width of 29.5mm allows for a fast-rolling tire profile relative to the front rim for pedaling efficiency.
Ultra-Quick Engagement
Our 11-series Synthesis wheels feature Industry Nine's revolutionary Hydra hubs, with a near-instantaneous 0.52° engagement to tackle technical climbs and transfer power to the trail without hesitation. Produced from start to finish in Asheville, North Carolina, Hydra hub shells, axles and endcaps are machined from bar stock 7075-T6 and feature high-quality Enduro® sealed cartridge bearings. It's groundbreaking pawl-based drive system is precision crafted from hardened A2 tool steel. Finally, a gloss-black anodization process with laser-etched Crankbrothers and Industry Nine logos keep things classy.
Quality Components
All Synthesis wheels are crafted with quality J-bend spokes from Sapim that are hand-selected for each wheel system's intended riding application - in the case of our Enduro 11 wheel system, we choose Sapim's bladed CX-Ray model up front to allow for increased lateral compliance, while the slightly thicker CX-Sprint is selected for the rear wheel for added support and durability.
