What riders are saying.
“After a month of 1800–2000 watt sprints, these feel stiffer than my 55mm wheels. Zero hesitation.”
"The true N+1 killer. Climbs easily, rock-solid descents, fast enough to outsprint riders on deeper wheels."
"The strength, weight, and responsiveness are exactly what I was looking for."
How we got to 1130g without cutting corners.
1 - Performance Targets First
Stiffness, impact resistance, and fatigue life are locked in before any gram-chasing begins.
2 - Rim architecture
Strength from shape. Spoke bed structure, bead walls, and reinforcement for real-world hits.
3 - Carbon layup strategy
Every ply has a job. Aerospace-grade carbon where loads live, removed where they don't.
4 - Dimensional control + QC
Bead seat, ERD, and critical interfaces inspected so every build starts true.5 - Spoke & tension plan
Chosen for long-term stability, not just the lightest spec sheet.
6 - Handbuilt, stress-relieved
Multiple tension cycles, stress relief, final balance checks. Stays true.
7 - Validation testing
Impact, fatigue, tire pressure testing. Plus real riding on rough roads.8 - Final inspection
Runout, dish, tension balance, hub function, tubeless check. Then ships.
Every part earns its place.
