Faction - Trail Carbon Wheelset
A scalpel for your trail bike.
The best thing about trail bikes is how lightweight and playful they are, so the obvious thing to do is pair it with a set of lightweight carbon wheels. Enter the Faction, our most agile, highly accurate rim. With strength that punches well above its class, these 27mm internal width rims make your cross country/trail bike come alive.
Available in 29er Diameter Only
Factions are available as RIMS too!

DON'T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT
THESE ARE SOME TOUGH RIMS
"What sets We Are One apart from the crowd is the impressive quality of the rim and the attention to detail that goes into the wheel build itself. The result is a tough and reliable wheelset that should last for season after season of hard use."
~ Mike Kazimer, Pinkbike

Wheel FAQs
For us, tubeless is the way to go! So yes, all of our wheels are shipped tubeless ready with tape and valves already installed. All you need to do is put on a tire and add sealant before hitting the trails!
29” is 2x and 27.5” is 3x. We find with the We Are One rims these lacing patterns tend to give you the best ride quality out of our product!
CX-Rays are a great weight saving tool for your wheelset, saving approximately 100 grams per wheelset (depending on your rim and hub configuration). The spokes also provide the same ride characteristics as our standard Race spokes.
We are doing our best to get you out on the trails enjoying We Are One products as soon as we possibly can. With that being said, all wheels are made to order and lead times will vary depending on what and when you order. Typical lead times are between 2-4 weeks.
Potentially, it depends on where your order is in the queue. If your wheels are already built then unfortunately, we are unable to make any further changes.
Once your order has passed all quality checks and is packaged up, we will send you the courier tracking number.
Depending on where you are located you can expect different shipping times.
