The New Width Standard: ELEI® Launches 30mm Internal Carbon MTB Wheelset Under 1225g

2026-01-20

Summary:
As mountain bike tires push beyond 2.4″, the rim’s role must evolve. ELEI® unveils its flagship carbon wheelset, defining the next-generation off-road platform with a pioneering 30mm internal width. This design not only optimally supports plus-sized tires but also achieves an unprecedented union of width and lightness, with total weight as low as 1224 grams (45mm depth).

【Tech Insight: How 30mm Internal Width Transforms Riding】

Moving beyond common 23-25mm internal widths to 30mm, when paired with modern 2.4″-2.6″ tires, delivers three key upgrades:

Optimized Tire Profile: The tire expands into a more rounded contact patch, reducing rolling resistance and dramatically improving sidewall support during cornering.
Pressure Versatility: Greater air volume allows for lower pressures without increasing pinch-flat risk, boosting traction and comfort on rough terrain.
Enhanced Structure: The wider rim itself offers increased lateral stiffness for more precise handling on aggressive trails.

Key Features:

Benchmark Internal Width: 30mm internal / 36mm external width sets a new standard for tire performance.
Full-Carbon Build: 5.2mm carbon spokes deliver exceptional stiffness and unique vibration damping at a minimal weight.
Depth Options: Choose between 45mm (lighter, responsive) and 50mm (increased lateral stiffness) rim depths.
