Bead type This is a required option.

Brake System This is a required option.

Road-Rim-High-TG-Surface-Grooved-Graphene-Surface

Non Disc - High TG Surface: Rim Brake 700C road rims use an advanced High TG resin system with a layer of graphene to help dissipate heat. The braking power and reliability is significantly improved over a basalt braking surface.

Non Disc - Grooved Graphene Surface: Our new resin system and construction method, combined with the 3k rim track, withstands over 280°C, dissipates heat, and lowers rim temperatures faster in between braking efforts. Gain confidence-inspiring brake performance on the steepest descents and wettest conditions with our matching brake pads. Also, graphene added to the rim brake track allows for greater resistance to overheating with improved heat dissipation and reduced temperature accumulation during heavy braking. The grooved track helps evacuate trapped moisture between pad and rim in wet conditions, and brings more resistance and force at the lever when conditions are dry.

Full Custom: This option (if provided here to choose) offers custom braking track in other various weaves (UD/12K/3K twill etc) with 1-2 weeks LONGER on manufacture and extra $10USD/rim only as a start (with High TG Surface by default). If you select this option and LEAVE YOUR TAILORED REQUIREMENT IN THE NOTES AT CHECKOUT, we will reach out to you once the order is placed.

Disc: The disc version does not have a rim brake track and features a unique disc specific layup process. Our new layup is about 10g ~30g lighter by reducing the unnecessary material and utilizing elements of our Flyweight construction method.

Non Disc - High TG Surface

Non Disc - Grooved Graphene Surface USD +30

Full Custom USD +10

Hole Count This is a required option.

Please note that our valves are drilled for presta and spoke holes are made for external nipples by default.

Full Custom: This option (if provided here to choose) offers custom drilling for any other hole counts or special drilling (e.g G3/ 2:1 etc), most of which are at no extra charge. If you select this option and LEAVE YOUR TAILORED REQUIREMENT IN THE NOTES AT CHECKOUT, we will reach out to you once the order is placed.

Finish This is a required option.

Matte is slightly lighter and a more subtle finish (most popular). Glossy has a shine to it.

Full Custom: This option (if provided here to choose) offers custom finish such as Satin/Raw etc at no extra charge but subject to rim models with 3-5 days LONGER on manufacture. And custom color painting is also available with added 15g/rim and extra $20USD/rim as a start. If you select this option and LEAVE YOUR TAILORED REQUIREMENT IN THE NOTES AT CHECKOUT, we will reach out to you once the order is placed.

Weave This is a required option.

The layup schedule is predetermined for each model, but you can choose the outer layer for cosmetic appearence.

The rim strength & weight is virtually identical.

Matte UD is the most popular and has a subtle look.

The futuristic Hexa-Comb and Braided UD are smooth and looks great on deep rims.

Full Custom: This option (if provided here to choose) offers custom weaves such as 3k twill vertical/ horizontal/ Braided UD etc with extra charge of $15USD/rim as a start but subject to rim models with 3~5 days LONGER on manufacture.

Center Channel Hole This is a required option.

With Access Holes: This is the traditional method. Spoke access holes are drilled in the center channel to allow the nipples to easily be fed through the rim. Tubeless tape is required to seal the rim.

No Access Holes: No spoke access holes are drilled in the center channel. Feeding the nipples through the rim is more challenging, but it allows for a tubeless setup without the need for tape. This kind of system is known as "road tubeless" and was made popular by Mavic. Some companies still refer to it as "UST style", however, UST is actually a specific interface between the tire and rim which was developed by a partnership between Mavic, Michelin, and Hutchinson.

Currently, rims with 'No Access Holes' do not work with our carbon spokes.

With Access Holes

No Access Holes

Drain Hole This is a required option.

The two small drain holes located 90° to the valve hole effectively help evacuate both the water trapped inside the rim and the air leaking into the rim chamber caused by nonperfect tubeless tape sealing handwork that may risk rim explosure in an aggressive tire inflating.

It is the small reinforced layer prelaminated on the area where the drain hole is drilled later that makes the rim strength fairly ensured without any compromise of weight added.

Riders who ride in wet areas are suggested to order rims with drain holes.
More info about holes >>

With Drain Holes

Decal This is a required option.

Road rims use super light waterslide decals (matte colors). The decal is very thin and applied under a clearcoat so they are non-removeable.

If you want custom graphic, Please email us, we will design for you. There will be extra cost for custom graphic on rims.

Valve Stem This is a required option.

We use a lightweight black alloy anodized valves with an oversized concave collar for easy gripping. A rubber o-ring goes in between the rim and the collar to help seal the rim and match the contour of the rim profile. The valve core is removable so you can add sealant without removing your tire.
Link to tubeless valve instructions

None

Add Valve Stem USD +7 each

Tubeless Tape This is a required option.

Add Tubeless Tape: A roll of 10-yard-long tape is provided separately as parts to do the favor for those who treasure the dirt in the hand and are passionate in DIY stuff.
Information of tubeless rim tape

Apply Tubeless Tape: In Light Bicycle, a proprietary taping aid works with our wheel builders to guarantee that a solid taping craft at industrial-level is well implemented in order for you to ride carefree tubeless at any conditions.

You do NOT have to use any tubeless tape to run tubeless if you have chosen "No Access Holes" on the rim center channel.

None

Add Tubeless Tape USD +6 each

Brake Pads This is a required option.

By default, Shimano type is offered only (Contact us if you want Campagnolo type). 4 pads will be included. These high performance brake pads are designed for carbon bike rims only and offer excellent stopping power even in the wet.

COMMENTS

Olivier 2020/09/22

Hi, I would like to know if a rim like the FALCON rim R65 Road could be with disc brakes or would i need to go with a cx/gravel rim? Would i lose speed? Also, are these rims compatible with straight pull hubs and spokes (since i would like to install a PowerTap g3 disc). Thanks in advance

LightBicycle 2020/09/22

Hi Olivier, Thanks for your inquiry!May i know your tire width please? Then we can check whether R65 disc is okay or not.Yes, our rims are okay for straight pull hubs and spokes. We use straight pull hubs and spokes for wheelbuilding also. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Marc 2020/07/24

Hello LB, I am after a wheelset for my fixed gear bike, running 100mm front / 120mm rear axle length. The R65 would be a perfect rim but I see you do not offer a fixie/track build option in your menu. Is there a LB track hub as a build option? Thank you and regards, Marc.

Hi Marc, Have you checked out our hub list? Let me know which hub you prefer and I will send you the quote for R65 track wheelset 700C. https://www.lightbicycle.com/newsletter/Light-Bicycle-Bike-Hub-List-of-2020.html Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi Luuk, Yes, we do have some tires tested on 700C road bike wheels. Which tire do you have? You can check out the actual tire weight on this page https://www.lightbicycle.com/newsletter/Claimed-Weight-vs-Actual-Weight-of-Bike-Tires.html.

Hey, are the 700c 622mm or larger?

LightBicycle 2020/03/13

Hi Stefan, Yes, the 700c rims' BSD is 622mm (ISO standard). So you should match a 700c-622 tire to the rim 65mm deep 700C. Thanks, Lightbicycle

LightBicycle 2019/12/31

Hi Alex, Yes, we can build a mixed depth combo 700C wheels road rim brake for you. The single wheel option is not available online currently, so I will create an invoice for you for this order. What hubs do you want to build with? DT Swiss 240S or 350 hubs? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi there. Can you do drilling for internal nipples on these? So a 2 or 2.5mm hole? Thanks, Lance

LightBicycle 2019/09/17

Hi Lance, Yes, we can make these wide gravel bike rims drilled for internal nipples (no extra charges added). For internal nipples, it is with smaller holes to make the nipples not visible. The diameter of the holes is 2.5mm. Which I can create the order for you (internal nipple option is currently not available online). Or you can leave a message on the order when you place the order through our website. We will double check with you to make sure everything is correct. Thanks, Lightbicycle

LightBicycle 2019/07/17

Hi Meta, As nearly all of our orders are highly customized, we stock very few rims with us in the warehouse, and we need to make the 65mm road bike rims 700C with full hand-made which requires about 12 days plus 5 days for DHL shipping Two weeks are too tight for us. Turnaround 20 days is much more practical. Is it okay for you? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hello. I want to build a wheelset for my disc road bike. Does disc brake version rim has rim brake track? What I want is a seamless, smooth and continuous rim surface.

LightBicycle 2017/10/23

Hi Mathew, Thanks for your inquiry! Sorry for the late reply. It was weekends last two days. For disc break, there will be no brake track. The rims are smooth and continous rim surface. There is no any step at the rim edge. Please find attached rim pictures for your reference. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, Are you able to do custom spoke drilling for these rims? I require it as a 21h Josh

LightBicycle 2017/10/16

Hi Josh, Thanks for your inquiry! We can manufacture RRU65C02 rims with 21H as you require, but we need to check your weight and see if 21H is strong enough for you. What about your tire width? Then we can check which rim is better for you. Do you want to space spokes in 2:1? For 21H(2:1), are they all evenly spaced? If yes, we have two choice for evenly spaced(as attached), and they are different in the valve hole position. Please tell us which spoking way you like. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Joel 2017/08/05

I have one sets of DuraAce WH-7900, 16/20 H hubs that i will use for my wheel build for your 65mm Clinchers, but im not shore what Aero spokes i need, what can you recommend for those ? Is the Sapim Cx_Ray maybe to weak ? DT Swish also have one model called "DT Aero Comp" that i think is little stronger but there is more spokes on the market, my weight is 87kg Best Regards Joel

LightBicycle 2017/08/07

Hi Joel, Thanks for your inquiry! Actually, sapim cx-ray bladed spokes are really durable. Most of our customers use it for mtb riding also. We haven't heard of sapim cx-ray bladed spokes broken. For your weight, it is okay to use sapim cx-ray bladed spokes on U65mm clincher wheelset. Sapim cx-ray bladed spokes are really durable and well-known. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hello Tom, Thanks for your inquiry. The recommend tires width for U65mm brake rims are 25C ~ 32C. But most of our customers use 25C and 28C, you can have a try. Thanks, Lightbicycle
