Crank Brothers Synthesis 2 Enduro 29in Alloy Wheel

Tuned Synthesis Enduro Alloy Wheels deliver front grip and rear stability

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"These wheels seriously changed how my bike handles. The softer front and stiffer rear setup makes a real difference in how planted and responsive it feels on rough terrain. Setup was super easy tubeless. Solid bang-for-buck wheels with proven durability."

We ride hard and expect our gear to do the same. That’s where the Crank Brothers Synthesis Enduro Alloy Wheelset comes in. Designed with a tuned wheel concept, these wheels are built differently—each one optimized for the unique demands of the front and rear of your bike. The front wheel features a wider inner rim and more compliant build to enhance traction and handling through corners. Out back, the rear wheel stiffens up with a narrower internal rim width and increased spoke tension for tracking stability and load support at speed.

Tubeless-ready alloy rims are welded and sleeved for added strength, while Sapim spokes keep things tight and true. Whether we’re floating through loam or hammering rock gardens, these wheels strike the perfect balance between compliance, durability, and affordability for modern enduro riders.
