Want to tear up the singletrack in your local woodlands? Maybe undertake an off-road adventure of unimaginable proportions? Want a set of wheels that can carry you over all terrains in the remotest corners of the globe?
We've taken all the best features of our carbon Dirt Hoops and made an ALLOY Dirt Hoop that is lightweight, affordable and dependable and will be your constant guide across any landscape your adventures may take you on!
Dirt Hoops but now ALLOY!
Wide Alloy
A 30mm internal width can accommodate a wide range of your favourite off-road tyres from 2.2–3.0" will fit with confidence.
Tubeless Ready
Tubeless is now a given on all our rims, so all Dirt Hoops Alloy wheelsets arrive tubeless-ready, with tape and tubeless valves. Simply install tubeless-ready tyres, sealant and inflate (In most cases a compressor is unnecessary). Then go ride!
DT 350 hubs
We chose DT Swiss 350 hubs for their performance, durability and serviceability. The combination of DT Swiss hubs and Sapim spokes has proven itself time and again under the harshest conditions and treatment we can throw at it.
Optional Dynamo Power
Charge your adventures with a power generating front dynamo hub. You have the option to upgrade your front hub to the super reliable SP Dynamo PD-8X so you can self-power your lights, navigation and other electronics.

As with all our products, the Dirt Hoops Alloy went through an intense real world testing procedure. In 2019, they were subject to thousands of kilometres of loaded outback abuse under the hands of Jesse & Sarah on their Tent is the New Rent tour. It also copped plenty of MTB abuse as we tested our DownRock hardtail frame.
WELL TESTED?
In test by the best, Dirt Hoops alloy toured the Outback on the first GMX+ bikes

FAQs
| What Tyres Can I Run? | So many choices! A 30mm internal rim typically works well within a range of tyres from 2.2" - 3.0" Some narrower tyres on wider rims will square off too much, and some wider tyres on narrower rims will fold and squirm due to lack of sidewall support. This is more common at the extremes and varies from tyre model to model. |
| Why only 28h? | We believe 28H is ideal for most off-road applications, as we've seen from our real world testing from XC racing to off-road touring. |
| Can I Customise the Build? | Definitely. Dirt Hoops Alloy are available as rim only. You can then configure your wheels any way you want, as long as your hubs of choice are 28h. Get in touch to discuss your options. |
