What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "These wheels hit the sweet spot between weight and strength. The Solix hub’s . 59° engagement makes quick pedal inputs feel instant, and the Hollow Bead Wall rim design gives me confidence against pinch flats on rocky trails. The 20th Anniversary colorway just seals the deal—performance wheels with a finish worth showing off."Handmade in Asheville, North Carolina, the Industry Nine Solix Trail Aluminum Wheelset brings together high engagement, durability, and a look that celebrates two decades of craftsmanship. At its core is the Solix freehub system, delivering a class-leading . 59° engagement that makes powering through technical moves nearly effortless. The aluminum rims feature Hollow Bead Wall construction, engineered to resist impacts and reduce the risk of pinch flats when we push hard on rough terrain. A 24-spoke Solix M hub and spoke chassis balances stiffness with efficiency, while the direct-thread alloy spokes create a solid, flex-free junction that’s easy to service with no special tools. Finished in an exclusive 20th Anniversary colorway, this wheelset doesn’t just perform—it commemorates Industry Nine’s legacy of precision while standing out on any build.
