Shimano MT500 29´´ MTB rear wheel

Q: Is the hole suitable for a car valve? Best regards

No, my friend, it´s a Presta valve wheel, which means it´s thin.

Q: Is this wheel compatible with a Sunrace 12v cassette? Thank you.

The characteristics indicate that it is up to 11V.

Q: I need a nine millimeter by 135 mm axle and a Shimano sprocket. Is it compatible?

Hi, it won´t work for a 9mm axle.

Q: Hello. I need to mount it on an ebike. The wheel I have now has the Shimano FH-MT400-B CL/Boost 12x148mm.center lock hub. Is this wheel compatible? 2.60 tires

As I write this answer, there are only 135mm and 142mm width axles available, so it won´t work for 148mm wide Boost frames. 12x148mm HG is that one: https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/es/shimano-rueda-trasera-de-mtb-mt500-29/136626103/p Regards

Q: Hello, is this rim a disc brake?

Yes, the hub is prepared to mount 6-hole brake discs

Q: I currently have a Shimano FH-MT401 bottom bracket, QR, Centerlock with Shimano Deore CS-M6100 cassette, 10-51T 12-speed, is this wheel compatible?

Without problems, I have installed a Shunsine 10-51 centerlock sprocket compatible with yours from Shimano on this same wheel.

Q: Dear seller, The rim in the image has a 9mmx135mm stud. In the description it happens to be 12x142. Please confirm if the image or description is correct. Thank you

The image is correct 9x135. It always depends on what you choose in the drop-down menu on the right. You can also choose 12 X 142 mm.

Q: Can a disc brake be fitted to this? It says rim, but i dont think this is correct.

Yes, the one I bought has a disc brake, centerlock!

Q: I needed to know if this rim is Boost for Shimano 12v cassette and 30mm center lock disc ;)

It´s boost, it´s center lock, but it´s not for shimano 12v!

Q: Hello, I need you to confirm if you can use this wheel with the Shimano hyperglide vlasic hub for 11 speeds thanks

Hola, esta rueda será compatible con los bujes Shimano HG. Se pueden montar casetes de 11 velocidades. Saludos.

What our customers are saying about Shimano MT500 29´´ MTB rear wheel

This Shimano MTB rear wheel is praised for its excellent value and quality for the price. It features a solid, well-finished design that gives confidence. Buyers frequently inquire about compatibility with specific components. Common questions focus on fitting 10, 11, and 12-speed Shimano or SRAM cassettes, with some noting issues with 12-speed fitment. Compatibility with various axle sizes and its suitability for Centerlock disc brakes and tubeless tires are also key considerations for purchasers. A great budget wheel, but verify your specs

Product as described, very well packaged and received quickly. Small drawback: to mount it tubeless, you need to change the rim tape, otherwise the air escapes through the two small water drainage holes on the side of the rim (which are useless)

Four stars? The wheel seems to be in place. I just got it on 7/18/23. Why only 4 stars? The delivery was promised to me 7 days earlier. If I had known that the goods came from Spain, I could have imagined that it couldn't be the early delivery. Because of the distance, greetings Rudolf

Hello. I need to mount it on an ebike. The wheel I have now has the Shimano FH-MT400-B CL/Boost 12x148mm.center lock hub. Is this wheel compatible? 2.60 tires

As I write this answer, there are only 135mm and 142mm width axles available, so it won´t work for 148mm wide Boost frames. 12x148mm HG is that one: https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/es/shimano-rueda-trasera-de-mtb-mt500-29/136626103/p Regards

I currently have a Shimano FH-MT401 bottom bracket, QR, Centerlock with Shimano Deore CS-M6100 cassette, 10-51T 12-speed, is this wheel compatible?

Answer of Alfonso

Without problems, I have installed a Shunsine 10-51 centerlock sprocket compatible with yours from Shimano on this same wheel.

Answer of David

That cassette needs a Microspline core. You will have to find out if the wheel is compatible with that hub. The bottom bracket is irrelevant
