After years of schlepping 170mm Enduro bikes up hills efficiency is having a renaissance. Little bikes are popping up everywhere and people are riding them harder than ever. Era SL wheels are designed specifically for these riders. Those looking to bridge the gap between saving weight and prioritising durability and ride feel. A happy medium between XC race andEnduro-rated components.A new carbon breed. This is Era SL.  GET RACING GET ROWDYLight enough for the weekend XC racer who wants one pair of wheels for their one bike. Once or twice a year you might throw your hat in the ring for a mass participation event likeBC Bike Race or the Downieville Classic where pushing your bike (and your wheels) beyond the demands of a typical XC course is the norm and can make a big difference on the clock.Strong durable and compliant to throw your little bike head-first into the rough stuff without remorse or hesitation. You might be on one of your Big Dumb Rides into the alpine for a mega descent or on a trip to a riding destination renowned for rowdiness. Whatever distance vert or nature of trail Era SL will be your faithful sidekick through it all.  BUILT WIDE AND LIGHTEra SL uses the same rim for the front and rear wheels with a 22mm rim depth to keep strength up and weight down. The 29mm internal width allows up to 2.6-inch tires for all your low-pressure low rolling resistance high traction needs.The Era SL rim is the lightest ever produced by Race Face. At 385 grams it’s same weight as those used in ultralight XC racing wheelsets. Low rim weight helps keep rotational mass low allowing quick acceleration and maintaining momentum on climbs. Era SL is not the lightest wheel out there but that was not our goal. We strived for a competitive weight that upholds our reputation for durability all at a price that makes sense for more riders.  XC BIKES NEED COMPLIANCE TOOWe took the laterally compliant trail-smoothing properties of the Era wheel to your little bike without the Enduro-rated weight. Fatigue is just as much—if not more—of a concern in shorttravelapplications and Era SL wheels come with 8.6% more lateral compliance Era wheels. That makes them feel smooth on the bumps while staying lively without any negative effect onpower transfer from the pedals.  TESTED. PROVEN.
