John : Industry Nine Hydra Hubs with Recon Pro AM930 Rims. Fair price, excellent build quality, quick delivery. I've had these for 2 years now and no need to have them trued.

Dylan : 65 hours of deep snow, thick mud, swift creek crossings, sand, and grit. These were the conditions on this year’s Stagecoach 400 Ultra Endurance Bikepacking Race I just completed with my Light Bicycle AM930 carbon wheelset. During a race like this, sleep deprivation, calorie chasing, and consistent moving time are my main objectives - not worrying about components or mechanicals. This is where the AM930’s just work! They’re burly enough to handle chunky singletrack with heavy bikepacking loads, light enough to roll fast and stay nimble, and a perfect balance of flex and stiffness you only get from quality materials and expert wheel building, all for a great price and with exceptional customer service.

trying to find a wheel comaparble to an ibis s35 with industry hub, i do all mountain and weight 240 lbs. how many spokes and what type , and what rim option should i use


LightBicycle 2020/11/05

Hi Neveo, 1. Most used spokes for all-mountain wheels are 32H and 28H. If you don't plan to do anything aggressive, or jumps, drops. The 28H would be enough for you. But if you are worried about the strength of the wheels, you can go with front 28H and rear 32H. Or, even 32H for both the front and rear. 2. Do you prefer Industry Nine 1/1 or Hydra hubs? Please confirm the spoke type, rotor type, and freehub body that you want. 3. The AM930 29er all mountain is from our pro lineup, so no post-finish is applied. The rims are fixed with UD, paint-less. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Can you make the AM 930 in flyweight and 28 hole?


LightBicycle 2020/10/15

Hi Sir, Yes, we can custom a lighter version of AM930 (30mm internal) 29er all mountain bike rim. But first, I would have to ask a few questions because a lighter version will make the rims less strong. I will have to evaluate to make sure that it's ok for you to ride on a lighter version of the AM rim. 1. What's your weight? 2. What type of riding you do? Any jumps or falls? 3. How's the terrain? Thanks, Lightbicycle

I would like to know if the AM930 can be made in a flyweight version. I'm 135 pounds and race xc. I would definitely like the 30mm internal width but looking for a lighter rim if possible. Thank you!


LightBicycle 2020/08/27

Hi Thomas, Yes, we can make the AM930 a lighter version. Can you tell me more about the riding you plan to do with the lighter version of AM930 29er bike rim? Then we can check how much weight and rim strength is better for you. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Can you get DT Swiss 240 straight pull, 28 spoke hubs for your builds?


LightBicycle 2020/01/31

​Hi Jason, Yes, we can get 28H straight pull for DT Swiss 240S hubs. You have to shop on global shop. Please check below picture for your reference. If you can not find it, you can list your 29er wheels order specs here. We can work on invoice accordingly for you. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hello! What rear hub and disc mount options (6-bolt, Centerlock) do you have available for Superboost Plus 157 for Pivot Bikes? What are their weights? Thanks!


LightBicycle 2020/01/06

Hi Sir, 1. Yes, we do have Super boost 12/157mm hubs available. Hope Pro 4 (322g) and Industry Nine 1/1 (292g), which would be your pick for your 29er mountain bike wheelset? Note that the weight would be different with a different freehub. 2. The super-boost hubs are only available in 6-bolt, J-bend. Thanks, Lightbicycle

frank 2019/09/17

pricing looks wrong, just configured some 29er am930 final price is saying $1200. That has to be like $500 over what it should be can someone please get back to me


LightBicycle 2019/09/18

Hi Frank, 1. First of all, could you provide the exact specs that you configurated so I can check if the price is correct? 2. This 29er wheelset is built with our Recon Pro series rim AM930, it's different from your last order RM29C07(35mm wide, from RECON series). You can check out the Pro/non-pro rim technologies and see the reason why the price is higher. https://www.lightbicycle.com/series/mtb/rim/recon https://www.lightbicycle.com/series/mtb/rim/recon-pro 3. The Global warehouse and North America warehouse are with different pricing for the same product as the North America warehouse already covers the tax, duty, brokerage fees, and other surcharges. You can choose to place the order from Global warehouse if you like. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, I bought extralight XC rims back in 2013 and nevertheless they were finally used for bike mountaineering they are absolutely flawless ! If I want to order a rim/wheel, which is not on your stocklist, how long will the lead time be ? sincerely, Jürgen


LightBicycle 2019/08/12

Hi Juergen, ​ It is appreciated that you like our products. I found your order is RM29C06-27mm wide 29er bike rims 6 years ago. Do you like the same rim or change to AM930(30mm inner width) rim? We have AM930 32H in stock. We can ship out in 1~2 days once you place the order. ​ Thanks, Lightbicycle

Can you lay these up in ultralight you do on other rim profiles?


LightBicycle 2019/04/22

Hi Rob, May I ask what kind of riding you do? And how much weight with gear on? If you are planning on doing some aggressive or hard terrain, I won't recommend going lighter. After getting on your reply, we can check whether we can customized ligher version AM930 29er mtb rims for you. Thanks, Lightbicycle

John 2019/02/27

What is the durability difference between the AM930 and EN932, I prefer a 30mm internal width on the AM930, but I am worried about how well they will stand up to hard riding because of their lighter weight, I tend to be hard on wheels.


LightBicycle 2019/02/28

Hi John, Here's the comparison between AM930 and EN932 for your reference. You can also compare other MTB rims by using our comparison tool at https://www.lightbicycle.com/product-compare/Rim-strength-comparison-on-29ER.html. You can find the entrance on the bottom navigation of our website as well. As you can see from the below screenshot, the EN932 is stronger than AM930 in all three dimensions. If you are looking for a durable rim, EN932 29er enduro rims/wheels would be a good choice. You can build a wheelset with hubs like DT SWISS 240s to make the wheelset stronger. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, How does the vertical stiffness compare for the AM927, AM928 and AM930? Thanks, Adam


LightBicycle 2018/11/22

Hi Adam, For carbon fiber rims, vertical stiffness can not be too stiff. For lateral stiffness, stiff is better. And you will also have to look at the final impact strength. The highest is the best. We send test data compare among these three 29er bike rim to your email. All the data will be uploaded on our website soon. Thanks, Lightbicycle
