Sub-1000g NOBL Ethos SL180 Claims to Be Lightest 30mm XC Wheelset in the World

"Recently, NOBL introduced the TR36 and TR38 in its Signature Series. The new wheels bucked the carbon wheel standard, opting for a layup that provides more compliance than the stiff carbon wheels we might be used to. And, now, NOBL introduces a completely new lineup of wheels-Ethos."

"NOBL built the wheels in each category to hit a specific weight, strength, and ride feel. They did this by using a new rim design, Berd Spokes, and the new Ethos Ti70 hub. And, at the very front of the Ethos mountain wheel lineup is the SL 180 wheel."

"The carbon wheelset weighs just 993g, which makes it the lightest production wheelset with a 30mm inner width in the world. But, honestly, all the weights are pretty impressive. Here's a bird's-eye view of the new wheels."

NOBL has launched the Ethos wheelset lineup, a comprehensive collection of six new wheels designed for various cycling disciplines from XC to gravity. The Ethos SL 180 wheelset claims the title of world's lightest production wheelset with 30mm inner width at just 993g, surpassing Berd's previous record. NOBL engineered each wheelset category to achieve specific weight, strength, and ride feel targets using a new rim design, Berd Spokes, and the new Ethos Ti70 hub. The lineup includes superlight options for short-track and ultralight XC racing, standard XC wheels with reinforced layup for everyday riders, and trail-oriented options, each optimized for its intended discipline.
