Sick riding mate!

@BarryWalstead: Sorry you had such a bad experience with your 'sponsorship' but this is not how we work. Ameila is a supported rider meaning we supply her with wheels, and race entry support, plus anything else we might be able to help with over the coming year (we hope years).

Hi the Proven Carbon Race XC UD are meant for XC racing at the highest level. We have E-MTB specific wheels in our Proven carbon range and will soon be launching our new alloy E All_Mountain wheelset.

Thank you for all your comments and feedback and interacting with the information we put out there. Between the engineering team and us there has been a miscommunication, and a legend from a different set-up was added to the FEA images. For this project we mostly use linear analysis to compare different geometries, to allow us to run lots of different geometries, and see which give us a performance gain. This twinned with our experience and warranty data has allowed us to produce a rim that will improve our riders experience on the XC wide. This is the first rim that we have developed in house and is a knowledge base we will continue to build on, and we have run some no liner sims and are in the process of validating these against our impact test data. Knowing full well we are not matching the levels of FEA carried out in industry, but it has proved a really useful tool to aid in our development of ever better wheels! We have been in touch with PB editors to see if we can get the FEA images amended. Thanks

The wheel we didn't tell you about ;) https://www.pinkbike.com/photo/25061940/

We would suggest HUNT Enduro Wide V2 or maybe the soon to launch E All_Mountain (which Lachlan Blair is using for DH, but don't tell anyone)

Lachlan looking sick!!! Hope Roger is ok.
