Engineered as a versatile crossover, the Era SL wheel transcends traditional category boundaries by delivering balanced performance across diverse terrain. Rather than compromising between lightweight XC efficiency and robust Enduro durability, this design occupies a purposeful middle ground—optimized for riders seeking genuine capability without sacrificing either speed or reliability. A thoughtfully engineered solution for those who refuse to choose between disciplines.
Get racing.
Weighing just 385 grams, the Era SL rim represents Race Face's lightest construction to date. This minimal rotational mass translates to responsive acceleration and sustained momentum during climbs, making the complete wheel ideal for competitive riders tackling technical terrain beyond conventional XC boundaries. Performance-oriented engineering for those demanding genuine speed without compromise.
Get rowdy.
The 22mm rim depth maintains structural integrity for aggressive riding, while the 29mm internal width accommodates up to 2.6-inch tires—enabling lower pressures for enhanced traction and reduced rolling resistance across variable terrain. Built to withstand demanding conditions without sacrificing the lightweight character that defines this wheel's performance envelope.
Compliance in the Vault
Paired with Race Face's dependable Vault Hub, the Era SL delivers exceptional lateral compliance that absorbs trail chatter and reduces fatigue while preserving efficient power transfer. The hub's 3-degree engagement and oversized bearings ensure longevity through sustained use, providing years of reliable performance across demanding conditions without compromising the responsive feel that defines this wheel's character.
