29er Carbon DH Wheelset Wide Flat Bead – DH40

Purpose-built for Downhill (DH) abuse. The new rim uses a widened, flat-top hookless bead that increases tire–rim contact under square-edge hits and hard landings, spreading impact loads and reducing stress concentrations to markedly improve pinch-cut and bead damage resistance. Paired with DT Swiss 350 EDG Limited Edition/Formula hubs, it delivers reliable engagement and easy service for all-day park laps and race stages.

Wide, flat bead load path → larger contact area for better impact diffusion and pinch protection; holds up when things get rough.

DH-specific layup with targeted reinforcements at the bead and spoke bed for repeated drops and high-frequency impacts.

Tubeless-friendly interior: rounded edges and a smooth tire bed make setup quick and long-term sealing stable.
