TECH

The Flyweight rim targeted specifically towards racers who seek every possible edge on the race course. Our goal was to produce the lightest possible rim without sacrificing performance.

Drawing on our engineers’ years of experience and countless revisions in each step of the manufacturing process, we are able to produce a strong and stiff gravel rim while dramatically reducing the weight.

Construction: We used a special uni-directional pre-preg with a very low fiber areal weight. This is an exclusive process to our Flyweight rims. To further reduce the weight we used a blend of Toray T700 and T800 specific layups. We opted for a new subtle ultralight waterslide graphic in glossy black with a matte finish overtop in the spirit of keeping these as funny cyclocross cross riding oriented rims.

Ben : Dear Lightbicycle, I just wanted to say thank you. I have recently installed my LB wheels on my gravel bike (my third set of LB wheels) and rode them today. They are fantastic. In quality, rideability and fun, they are the best I could hope for. I would not change a thing. I should add that the tubeless preparation you did was perfect. I was able to install Maxxis Rambler tires easily with a floor pump! Please keep being awesome. 加油! Ben Sallanches, France

Olaf : i just finished the Bike for mi wife. It is incredibly light and accelerates the very light bike extremely quickly. Especially gravel paths and wading paths with 1.5 bar air pressure are a dream to drive. At the front there is a 2.3 Specialized Fast Track tire and at the rear there is a 2.2 Specialized Renegade. The whole bike only weighs 7.5kg thanks to your super light wheels I am planing the next project, so will write you soon again.

Kevin : Hi, I’ve built up the bike. Here’s a pic: Very happy with the quality and service! U make it so easy to customise a wheel. The “stealth decals” looked too white and obvious, so I removed them for a more subdued look. Thanks very much! Kevin

What is the highest PSI these rims can take? looking for a set for my road bike


LightBicycle 2020/04/07

Hi Cristian, For AR24 road bike disc rims, the max tire pressure in lab test is 60PSI. How many tire pressure will you use?For hookless, it is better to make sure it is lower than 60PSI while riding. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Is the "lab test" a tire-blowoff test to find the limit of the rim profile?


LightBicycle 2020/12/14

Hi Steve, What tire pressure and tire model that you plan to run with AR24 (27mm wide) road disc? The max we recommend to run is 50psi because of the hookless rim bead design. Thanks, Lightbicycle
