Description

BSD XLT Rim

Trust BSD to bring out the goods! This brand new rim is just shy of 500g making it light weight but still incredibly strong! These rims are also deigned to utilise a cross lacing pattern with the spokes that pulls everything super tight resulting in an even stronger design! An added bonus is that this rim has a braking surface which means that you can run it with front or rear brakes! Bring back the nosepicks!

If you’re trying to lighten your bike then rims and tires can make a big difference to how the bike handles due to the reduction of rotational mass. The XLT is BSD's new lightweight rim, designed around an X-section for increased stiffness, the rim has an aero style shape which further triangulates the design. With other proven features such as tapered sidewalls and patented cross over lacing this rim is light while remaining strong.
