TECH

The 38mm wheels are very popular amongst riders looking for a strong and wide carbon wheel. The 31.6mm internal width works well with high volume tires and the wide bead seat helps to prevent tire burping on tubeless setups. These imposing rims have a 32mm depth so you will get a very responsive wheel that can hold it’s line through rough terrain.

For really aggressive riders or those using the bike park from time to time, we have an HD version. The HD version receives an extra wrap of 3k carbon fiber for additional wall thickness and reinforcement so they can handle G-outs better than the normal version.

Hello, Wondering if you can do the new graphic decal in a special order color to match my frame color. I'm looking to match YT Industries new "Storm Grey" frame color. How much extra is a special order color and how much is shipping for a wheelset to Hong Kong?


LightBicycle 2018/05/07

Hi Jamie, Could you kindly provide the color code for us so we can make the closest decal? It's very hard for us to make a correct color only by photos. Pantone color code would be great!

Hi Franco, We can build WM29C14 wheel with 12*157mm rear hub, however, we can only get Hope 12*157mm rear hub. Is it okay for you?

Would it be possible to order a wheelset of the 29C14 with the following specs: Front Wheel: Axle: 15/110 Boost Brake: 6 bolt Holes: 32 Spoke: J-end Hub: DT Swiss 350 Version: All Mountain Spoke: DT Swiss Comp Race Nipples: Brass Black Finish: Matte Weave: UD Decal: Black Add Valve Stem & Tubeless Tape Rear Wheel: Axle: 12 / 148 Boost Freehub: Sram XX1 Brake: 6 bolt Holes: 32 Spoke: J-end Hub: DT Swiss 350 Version: HEAVY DUTY Spoke: DT Swiss Comp Race Nipples: Brass Black Finish: Matte Weave: UD Decal: Black Add Valve Stem & Tubeless Tape I want the front in All Mountain version and the rear in HD. Is that possible? I didn't see an option to mix & match the version on your online order form. Thanks, Scott


LightBicycle 2017/04/20

Hello Scott, Thanks for your inquiry. The max weight limit for WM29C14 all mountain wheels is 140g. Don’t worry, the weight limit is just an approximate estimation. If you take normal all mountain & enduro riding, the AM version is strong enough for your riding. If you ride aggressively (with lots of big jumps), please go with HD version. The HD version has extra layers for increased stiffness and sidewall reinforcement. Ideal for large and aggressive riders. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, Considering purchasing a built up set of your 29C14. The weight limit you have on that wheel's description page is 140KG. Is that the weight limit for the standard all mountain build? Or is that the weight limit with the heavy duty build? My riding weight (with gear/camelbak etc) is 92kg. So I just want to be sure which is the right build for me. Thanks.

Joe 2016/10/22

I wish to get these wheels.Black everything, but I'm not sure what kind of spoke to get, I prefer strength over weight, I a heavy rider that is influenced by the downhill racers so I"m after strength. I want straight pull hubs, but I don't know what the strongest spokes to buy? can you help me out in that regard?


Light-Bicycle 2016/10/24

Hello Joe, We are able to build the 29er wheels with black hubs/ spokes/ nipples. If you ride quite aggressively, then go with the 38mm wide HD version and DT competition straight pull spokes. The HD version has extra layers for increased stiffness and sidewall reinforcement. Ideal for large and aggressive riders. Thanks, Light-bicycle

Can you build the 38mm 29er wheels on Hadley Boost Hubs? 15x110 in the front, 148x12 in the back?


Light-Bicycle 2016/10/24

Hello Alex, Thanks for your inquiry. Currently, only Hope and DT Swiss boost hubs are available, not Hadley Boost Hubs. Does it work for you? Thanks, Light-bicycle

Leon 2016/06/19

Hi, I'm ordering a wheelset 29C14 38mm rims, front QR/100mm and rear QR135mm. 6 bolt brake, shimano Freehub, DT spokes. The only DT option the web site ordering is giving is DT 240s Hubs. Can I order with DT350 hubs in that configuration instead? What is the price difference?


Light-Bicycle 2016/06/20

Hello Leon, Thanks for your continued support. Sorry, the DT 350 QR for front & rear are always out of stock, and it is difficult for us to stock the QR options. That is why we won’t upload this option on our website. But we can order from DT Swiss China agent. If you would like to place an order, please confirm the full order details (weave, finish, hole count, decal requirements), then I can create the purchasing link for you. Thanks, Light-bicycle
