The Whisp delivers at the intersection of speed and strength.
A metaphorical jackrabbit, designed to give riders ultralight performance and nimbleness, with reinforced impact resistance when you want to take on those extra spicy lines and rock gardens. Welcome to the new era of XC performance.
Ultralight Without Compromise.
Built with localized reinforcement that eliminates unnecessary material while maximizing durability where it matters most.
Smoother, Faster, more efficient.
Optimized shape and advanced laminate tuning provide a fast, responsive, and efficient ride—ideal for XC racers or gravel riders who want to feel quick without feeling beat up.
Bottom Line ... More Riding, Less Fuss.
Convergence utilizes an articulating spoke bed technology, allowing for a more balanced, longer-lasting wheel build - meaning more riding, less wrenching.
Built with Convergence
Convergence Technology is unlike any other rim design out there. Our articulated nipple holes align the spoke and nipple at a perfect angle. This reduces fatigue on the spoke and nipple connection points and provides less stress on the rim, providing next-level confidence in durability.
