XC Race Wheels. We took everything we learned from our World Cup Winning platform to develop the best riding, strongest XC wheelset on the market.

30|XC Wheels deliver climbing efficiency and descending performance for the needs of today’s World Cup XC racing and modern XC bikes. With steeper and more technical courses, the world’s best riders need more control and strength, without compromising on weight. 30|XC delivers on both.

Cannondale Factory Racing, one of the most exciting teams in XC, will be racing the new 30|XC on the UCI World Cup circuit this year. Follow along as Charlie Aldridge, Jolanda Neff, Luca Martin, Ana Santos and Cole Punchard push Reserve wheels to the top of the podium.

The 30|XC is available with DT Swiss 350 hubs as standard at £1599 RRP. There is also an SL version with the DT Swiss 180 hubs, carbon spokes and an even more refined SL rim at £2699.

Features 30|XC

30mm Internal Rim Width

Modern XC race bikes have wider tires, more travel and geometry that allows riders to push harder than ever before. The 30mm internal width accommodates wider tires (2.35-2.5), for better support in corners and more traction in technical sections.

28 Spokes
We increased the spoke count from 24 to 28. The new rim gives you improved strength and durability at a lower weight. 

Degree of Freedom Equipped DT 350
The DT Swiss Degree of Freedom system offers a tangible increase in performance, with no weight penalty, by reducing pedal kickback and improving suspension performance. 30|XC Wheels with the DT Swiss 250 hub include Degree of Freedom ratchets installed in the 0°position for high engagement and quick acceleration.

Features 30|XC SL

Factory Spec
Our stiffest, lightest mountain wheels. The SL version of 30|XC features carbon spokes and 30g of weight savings per rim. This is the race setup ridden by Cannondale Factory Racing.

SL Rims
A special carbon layup and greater use of high modulus fiber make our SL rims lighter and with identical strength characteristics and ride quality compared to 28|XC. 

180 Hubs

Our lightest rims are exclusively paired with the lightest hubs. DT Swiss 180s are the benchmark for lightweight, high-performance hubs, with worldwide support for driver bodies and small parts.

Carbon Spokes
Vonoa carbon spokes are 30% lighter than traditional steel spokes and deliver a stiff, responsive ride. Team riders say the carbon spokes feel very planted, and the stiffer spokes reduce spoke wind-up, which makes it feel like they can accelerate faster.
