e*thirteen
e*thirteen is an American mountain bike components brand that has built a loyal following in the enduro and trail riding community for making components that genuinely hold up under the abuse of aggressive riding. Their chainrings, cassettes, and wheels are designed specifically for the loads imposed by modern enduro geometry — steep descents, big impacts, and the punishing lateral forces of technical terrain at speed. What Does e*thirteen Make for Mountain Bikers? The e*thirteen TRS+ is their mountain bike cassette — a 9-50t 12-speed cassette that offers the widest-range gearing on the market, allowing riders to both climb and descend effectively on a single chainring setup without compromise. Their LG1 alloy wheels are built specifically for enduro riding — wide internal rims (30mm+), strong spoke lacing, and a weight penalty the brand consciously accepts in favour of trail durability. Their aluminium chainrings are precisely CNC-machined and available as direct replacements for worn OEM rings. Why Choose e*thirteen for Enduro and Trail? e*thirteen components are built by people who race enduro, for riders who race enduro. Their cassettes offer genuine gearing advantages over Shimano and SRAM equivalents at similar price points, and their wheels are among the most durable alloy options available for technical mountain biking. If you are breaking standard components through aggressive riding and want parts that last, e*thirteen should be on your shortlist.
