NOBL Launches 1386g $1,499 XC Wheelset with New Core Hub
It's fixed... one eternity later: https://shop.noblwheels.com/nobl-core-hub Weโ€™ll have some wheel spin videos coming soon. The Core hub has a moderate sound level. You can also โ€œtuneโ€ the sound level with grease vs. oil, and more frequent re-greasing of the hub internals will keep the sound more muted.

"Understated *hub* logos" - referring to the subtle outline logo iteration that we designed for the hubshells. Not into the bold rim graphics? All good: choose black or just rock the raw carbon rims themselves, with the cutie laser-engraved crown logo by the valve. All the options for all the tastes!

NOBL Launches 1386g $1,499 XC Wheelset with New Core Hub
@trillot: The "flexible bead material" (sorry about the silly term, we just can't give away the secret sauce) makes the rims significantly stronger, especially when they take a hit on one side of the bead, but not the other. Which is the most common on the trails anyways. Having the tiniest amount of give helps dissipate the forces. Carbon rims are made up of multiple types of carbon, some more flexible than others, and we use these different materials in different areas of the rim in different layers to achieve the exact ride feel, weight, and strength target we want. That's why carbon is such a cool material for wheels; you have so much control over how you tune them.

Fair enough! We don't see a lot of XC wheelsets in full 27.5" these days. Our Core Trail wheels can be built as a full 27.5" wheelset and would be a great fit for an aggressive 130mm bike like the 5010.

We have a Gravel/Road version of the NOBL Core hub launching very soon, with standard 100x12mm/142x12mm spacing. The front is convertible to 100x15mm with a neat end cap insert, too. It's not possible to convert the boost Core Mountain hubs for use on 100x12/142x12 axles, however. Just gotta go for both ;)

This is a ratchet hub with two floating ratchets. No pawls here, pal.

That's the internal dimensions of the NOBL XC front rim; the rear rim has a 3.1mm bead wall.
