Description

Looking to build the ultimate race bike? Then there's no doubt that you will be running carbon rims and here are their options for your mini, junior or expert bike. Available with a braking service and without (non-braking) surface, these rims are not only super strong and stiff, they are light!

We've built hundreds of BMX race wheels with carbon rims and we very rarely ever see them fail, or buckle. Their ability to take big hits astounds us, and offsets the higher initial investment as they can take a case that would see you throwing away a alloy rims and fully rebuilding a wheel.

Answer BMX have led the carbon revolution in BMX racing with their Dagger forks being on the scene for over a decade. They know what it takes to build a dependable, performance orientated carbon BMX component.

Features

451mm carbon, 28 hole. Built on a 451mm bead diameter with 28 spoke holes, so it laces into a mini, junior or expert race wheel.
Light at 272g. Front and rear both weigh 272g, which takes real rotating weight out of the wheel for gate starts.
Takes big hits. We have built hundreds of carbon race wheels and rarely see them fail or buckle, even after a case that would end an alloy rim.
Braked or non braked. Choose the version with a braking surface or the non braking rim, depending on whether you run a brake.
Presta valve, 420mm ERD. Drilled for a Presta valve with a 420mm ERD, so you can work out spoke lengths before you build.
