Industry Nine Trail 245 27.5in Boost Wheelset

With a new name and a redesigned rim profile, the Industry Nine Trail 245 27. 5in Boost Wheelset updates Industry Nine's popular Trail series, making wheels already known for their longevity even more durable and better adapted to the modern, 27. 5in standard. Built with the same reliable construction and precise machining that Industry Nine has become known for, this version is compatible with Boost front and rear axles. Industry Nine starts with dependable aluminum rim construction for the Trail 245s, increasing the internal width to 24. 5mm and giving the rim its new Second Generation Tubeless profile.

Industry Nine's signature hubs are largely responsible for the brand's enthusiastic following, and the latest Torch hubs used in the Trail 245s don't disappoint. They're laced to the rims with Industry Nine's machined 7075 T6 aluminum spokes, which thread directly into the hubs. This distinctive choice eliminates weakness at the spokehub interface and allows for increased surface area for a stronger wheel system overall. The hubs themselves rely on Industry Nine's proprietary pawl design, which features two sets of three pawls phased three degrees from each other to provide 120 points of contact and a snappy three degrees of engagement. The rear hub was tested to withstand an excessive 700ftlbs of torque roughly what a diesel truck puts out which should put any thoughts of slippage or power l..
