Designed for riders whose primary objective is achieving the lowest possible wheel weight. Ideal for lightweight performance builds, climbing and riders who prioritise minimum weight over the more substantial construction of the Race or Heavy Duty versions. Please note: The lightest rim is not automatically the best choice for every rider. Rider weight, power, riding style, road conditions and personal preference should all be considered when selecting a rim layup.<br> Race — Balanced Performance Load limit: 120kg A performance-focused layup providing an excellent balance between low weight, stiffness, strength and durability. Ideal for racing, fast group riding and performance-focused everyday use. A good all-round choice for riders who want a lightweight wheelset without making absolute minimum weight the main priority.<br> Heavy Duty — Maximum Strength &amp; Durability Load limit: 130kg Our most robust rim layup, designed for riders who prioritise maximum strength, stiffness and long-term durability. Recommended for heavier or powerful riders, demanding road conditions, high-mileage use, and riders who simply prefer a more substantial wheelset. It can also be a good choice for racing where the rider prioritises stiffness, stability and durability rather than achieving the absolute lowest wheel weight.
