KICKSTARTER ENDS IN...
Back this project now to get early adopter pricing! This might be the best offer you'll get on these wheels...
When it comes to designing products we have an internal trifecta we must hit; high quality, durability, and affordability. We took a look at the aluminum wheel market and most brands hit only one, maaaayybe two of those bullet points and we felt we could do better. Introducing the Coven AL Wheelset: Our debut into the world of mountain bike wheels. Most brands are satisfied with simply slapping their logo onto an open mold rim and calling it good. We know that’s not enough and set out to design a rim that would outperform our competition.

6069-T6 Alloy with Welded Seams
We chose 6069-T6 aluminum because it is the highest-strength alloy available for making rims and is 40% stronger than 6061-T6 in fatigue loading. Additionally, we opted to weld our rims instead of sleeving them to ensure the strongest joining method, with the added benefit of a simpler, more airtight tubeless setup.
Asymmetric Rim Profile
We chose to utilize an asymmetric rim design to make the assembled wheelset stronger. Asymmetric rims equalize the tension between the drive and disc side (on the rear wheel) and the disc and non-disc side (on the front wheel). This means the Coven wheelset will stay true longer and handle impacts better than symmetric wheels. Additionally, we made the profile shallower in order to add as much compliance as possible in the vertical direction. Lastly, a wide hookless sidewall puts material where it matters to minimize pinch flats and bent rims.
Customizable Premium Finish
Most brands reserve customization for their high end carbon wheels. Just because they are alloy shouldn’t mean that you can’t get the same high quality finish. Our Coven rims are polished and masked before final media blasting, this allows us to retain an extremely durable high end logo treatment that lends well to custom decal placement. Want to match the Tenet rim logos to your frame paint color? Not a problem.
