GOT QUESTIONS? WE'VE GOT ANSWERS.
Wider rims are better, they provide, more tyre support, better cornering stability and increased traction.
GNARLY alloy rims are designed to match modern tyres, delivering the ideal balance of control and durability. Pipeline 30 rims are best for 2.4"–2.6" tyres. Pipeline 32 rims are best for 2.6" to 3.0" tubeless tyres.
Wider rims increase, Lateral support → for better cornering control and Torsional strength → for more precise handling.
On wider rims, the tyre holds its shape better, giving you more stability and confidence at speed.
Yes — immediately. You’ll notice more grip, better control and a more planted feel through corners. It’s one of the biggest upgrades you can make.
Low profile rims are more compliant. This means they absorb bumps instead of bouncing, maintain momentum and increase traction.
Less bounce = more speed and control on real terrain.
Yes. GNARLY alloy rims are more compliant, this means, better vibration absorption, less rider fatigue and more consistent tyre contact. This directly improves both comfort and performance.
Yes — GNARLY alloy rims are built for impact resistance and durability. They’re designed to handle, Trail riding, Enduro riding, hard impacts and rough terrain.
Alloy rims can dent and still be ridden. That means, greater ride-out reliability and less risk of complete failure. Ideal for riders who push hard in rough conditions
Yes — all of our alloy MTB rims are fully tubeless compatible. Designed for, Easy setup, Reliable sealing and Lower tyre pressures.
Yes — a big one. You’ll notice more grip, better control, a smoother ride and increased confidence when the riding gets gnarly.
There’s a limit. Wider alloy rims add weight, reduce efficiency and if they get too heavy, can affect ride performance and feel dead on the trails.
GNARLY alloy rims are designed to balance strength, weight, compliance, and stability. This is the holy grail for MTB rim design.
