ENVE AM30 29" MTB Wheel - Front
The AM30 is your one-wheelset quiver for lunch laps, park laps, and backcountry epics. With a modern rim shape, compliant-yet-snappy carbon laminate, tubeless optimization, anti-pinch flat technology, a 30mm internal width, lifetime guarantee, and a balanced all-mountain ride-tune, the AM30 is ready for anything you can throw at it.
Over a decade ago, ENVE (then EDGE) released the AM, a first-of-its-kind hand-built carbon mountain bike rim, strong enough to be ridden every day, on any trail.
The AM30 pays tribute to the past, while ushering in a new era of carbon rim performance developed on the back of 13 years crafting carbon for the demands of the modern all-mountain rider.
"ENVE headed down a different route with the AM30 wheels and it paid off...
The fact that they felt great out on the trail, and held up well without any durability issues is even better." - Mike Kazimer, Pinkbike

Additional Info:
ENVE INNERDRIVE J-Bend Hubs
ENVE’s INNERDRIVE hub system refines and improves upon proven ratchet-driven technologies by increasing the diameter of the ratchets to allow for higher engagement without sacrificing durability. With options between 40, 60, 80, and 100t drive ratchet to tune the hub engagement rate to their preferences. With the highest tooth count, INNERDRIVE hubs will engage in as little as 3.6 degrees. Further benefits of the INNERDRIVE system include ENVE’s Perfect Preload system which delivers prolonged bearing life and minimal maintenance.
ALL-MOUNTAIN RIDE TUNE
Built for Speed, Built for Comfort
With a unique shape and ride-tune, the AM30 balances compliance and vibration damping for all-day comfort, while retaining quick cornering, acceleration, and gravity-rated strength. Offset spoke holes balance spoke tensions to help preserve the wheels’ quickness and the spoke’s integrity – despite the rim’s additional compliance.
PINCH FLAT PROTECTED
Wide Hookless Bead
The Wide Hookless Bead dissipates impact energy preventing the rim from slicing the tire. This means you can pick the tires, casings, and pressures you want to run, instead of letting the fear of flats dictate these important decisions for you. The AM30 helps to prevent pinch-flats and ruined rides with our proven, patent-pending Wide Hookless Bead.
EXTERNAL MOLDED SPOKE HOLES & NIPPLES
Reliability First, Serviceability Also First
We’ve expanded our patented process of molding spoke and valve stem holes to include external spoke holes and nipples. Because carbon fiber gets its strength from continuous fibers, we route the fibers around the holes without cutting them which increases the strength of each spoke hole and reduces the likelihood of frequent truing. Additionally, by molding the spoke and valve stem holes, our rims achieve a greater strength to weight ratio. Strong, light, and maintenance free.
USA MADE
It’s no secret that we at ENVE are proud of our U.S. based manufacturing capabilities. Like all our rims, the AM30 rims are handmade and assembled in our Ogden, Utah based, state-of-the-art carbon wheel manufacturing facility.
