It seems as though every brand has their own carbon wheel nowadays. RaceFace, on the other hand, has been developing and engineering carbon wheels for the greater part of the last decade. Their latest offering, the Era wheel, is a true culmination of all those learnings and experience. Let's find out how they stack up.
With so many different types of carbon wheels and designs out there, it's refreshing to see somewhat of a no frills approach from RaceFace. They established themselves as heavy hitters in the carbon wheel world years ago and they've proven themselves once again with the Era wheel. With a tried and true hub paired with a light, durable, and compliant rim, what more could you ask for? If you're looking for a strong, great performing carbon wheel for your mountain bike with a bulletproof lifetime warranty, these are absolutely worth a go.
