Carbon wheelset for demanding All-Mountain riding & E-MTB.

The Race Face Next R 31 Carbon wheelset in 29" combines a wide, modern rim profile with robust construction and very fast hub technology. With Boost axle spacing (15x110 mm / 12x148 mm), 6-bolt disc, and a SRAM XD freehub, it is made for aggressive All-Mountain and E-MTB setups where things get serious both uphill and downhill.

The UD carbon rims with 31 mm internal width and 37 mm external width provide a stable base for wide tires and deliver excellent grip, high lateral stability in corners, and controlled, modern handling. The asymmetric rim profile improves spoke tension and therefore wheel stiffness - ideal when you want to brake hard, steer precisely, and still feel confident on rough terrain.

At the heart of the wheelset is the Race Face Vault hub with an extremely fast engagement of just 3°. This transfers your efforts directly into forward motion - whether at the start, out of tight corners, or on technical climbs. Straight-pull, double-butted spokes (2.0/1.5/2.0) are laced in a 3-cross pattern and tensioned with black aluminum nipples. Replacement spokes for the rear wheel are included for emergencies.

The wheelset is Tubeless Ready: With suitable rim tape, valves, and sealant, you can switch to tubeless operation and benefit from lower pressures, more traction, and improved puncture protection. Weighing approximately 1765 g (29" set), the Next R 31 is one of the lighter yet highly robust carbon options for All-Mountain and E-MTB use.

Highlights:

• Wide carbon rims: 31 mm internal width for voluminous tires, plenty of grip, and secure lateral support on rough terrain.
• Vault hubs: lightning-fast engagement (3°) for direct acceleration - ideal for technical climbs and sprints.
• Suitable for All-Mountain & E-MTB: robust UD carbon layup, asymmetric rims, and strong straight-pull spokes.
• Tubeless Ready: designed for tubeless use (rim tape & valves required).
• Boost standard & SRAM XD: 15x110 mm / 12x148 mm with XD freehub - suitable for modern Enduro & E-MTB frames.
