The 25mm wide monocoque rim is already designed for wider Cross Country tires. The front wheel is available in two versions: Standard quick release or 15mm through axle and weighs only 601g. The rear wheel is only 727g.  This weigh makes them among the lightest wheels on the market up there with Stans ZTR wheelset.
