Bontrager adds new trail and XC wheels to complete industry-leading MTB offering
Bontrager has a rich history driving innovation in the world of mountain bikes, especially when it comes to wheels. Keith Bontrager was the one of the first to bring lightweight designs to the fledgling MTB world, and we continue his legacy of innovation every day, pushing modern technology to redefine what’s possible with superior materials and design. Today, we’re even challenging Keith’s age-old adage of “Strong, Light, Cheap—Pick Two.” Nostalgia aside, Bontrager Wheelworks has been busy dreaming up, engineering, and testing the crap out of the new wheelsets below. When it comes down to it, we make best-in-class products because we love to ride them.
