Ratchet This is a required option.

DT Swiss hubs use star ratchets and are available in 4 different models with varying points of engagement.
18T - Deepest teeth, slowest engagement, least amount of maintenance, suitable for powerful riders.
36T - Happy medium, doubles the engagement points.
54T - Super fast engagement, but shallow teeth require more careful re-greasing and the thru-axle should be checked every ride.
24T - Made out of hardened steel as e-bike specific.
EXP 36 - With only a single spring, making the hubs faster and lighter. More precise contact makes a longer lifespan.
EXP 54 - Upgraded from EXP 36 to gain incredibly faster engagement.

DT Competition Race - All Mountain and XC spoke used by the Chinese location as a substitue for the D-Light (depending on availability)
Pillar PSR X-TRA 1420 - An inexpensive bladed spoke, great for road and cyclocross riding.
Pillar Wing 20 - Pillar patented highest level of aerodynamic bladed spoke reducing potential weak spots and twisting during tensioning. Currently, they are offered in oil slick color only with increased wear and corrosion resistance.

Finish This is a required option.

Paintless: The "Finish" relates to how the rim is coated or painted such as matte or glossy for the most common applications. Our Recon Pro and Falcon Pro rims feature BlackTek and come out of molds as a completed product, with a scratch resistant and near flawless finish, eliminating the need for coating or painting. We name this kind of superior finish the paintless.
Crystal Painting: A fantastic painting effect designed by Light Bicycle.
Full Custom: This option 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 REQUIREMENT IN QUOTES IN THE NOTES AT CHECKOUT, we will reach out to you once the order is placed to finalize the details.

Full Custom
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.
More info about Weave >>
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. 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.

Braided UD USD +15
Rim Warranty This is a required option.

For Recon Pro Series ( MTB rim), Falcon Pro (road rim) and Drift Pro (fatbike rim), 5-year warranty is set as standard, and optional Lifetime Premium Warranty are kindly offered to purchase with minimum charge respectively.
5 Years
Lifetime USD +100/rim
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
No Drain Holes
Decal This is a required option.

1. Grey Laser Engraving (Falcon Pro) - Our laser engraving technology is eco-friendly and adds a snappy, polished aesthetic to your new rims.
Please note: Contrary to rims with any coated/painted finishes (matte, glossy and satin) as well as Crystal Painting, laser engraving could work with paintless rims only.
2. Full Custom - Add some additional personalization and go full custom with your rim graphics! Laser engraving is available in one colour (light grey) and starts at $5 USD per rim. If you select this option, LEAVE YOUR REQUEST IN QUOTES IN THE NOTES AT CHECKOUT. For example: "I need my personalized logo printed" or "Just text 'ABC racing' ". We will reach out to you once the order is placed to finalize the details of custom graphics.
Full Custom (Laser only) USD +5

Michael : 2018 Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Disc with 25mm tires in the front, 32mm tires in the rear. AR465 X-Flow wheelset with internal nipples, oil slick Bitex hubes, and spokes. Had 0 issues in the 2+ years I rode them on the road. They performed and looked great in all conditions, including 20 MPH+ 90 degree perpendicular crosswinds. Custom decals also looked great. I recently sold this bike but the wheels looked as they did when new. 25mm GP5000 S TR in the front measured at 26.7mm, 32mm measured to a bit over 33mm. I never had issues installing, removing, or inflating tires. I suspect I may have needed a single tire lever, but it wasn't difficult otherwise.

Nick : After riding the AR375 for over a year I decided to get a Pair of the AR465, this time opting for the Flyweight option. This was actually my very first wheelset I built on my own, lacing the Rims on a Set of DT Swiss 180 EXP Hubs. They feel ever so slightly faster than the shallower AR375 but still stable in crosswinds. I took these to Mallorca earlier this year and can confirm that these are well capable of go fast up and downhill.

Desmond : I am impressed that LB allows customization for every order to suits their customers expectations while maintaining cost effectiveness. Most importantly, they produced rims which also cater for heavy riders like me. Hence, I customised my AR465 standard version to suit my weight with my preferred design. During the manufacturing process, I asked LB whether am I able to choose rim decal as an option to put up on my rim as laser engraving is the only option which a little too dull for me. As such, their sales representative, Koko, engaged me that she will throw in a few pieces of LB logo valve decal in my order based on my color selection. When I held the rim for the first time, it was very well built at its top notch quality in every details. In term of weight, it is lighter than my original rims.
Once I rebuilt my wheelset and brought out for my first ride, I experienced several bumps on the road, the rim still stay as trued as it should. Asthetically, it makes my road bike stands out than before.
Thanks to LB for making such great rims and I truly satisfied with my purchase. Thumbs up.

Hi. I like these wheels with the dt swiss 350 hub would be great how much is that? Also if I dont specify a hub which hub comes as standard for the price quoted. It says 700c / 29. But thought 700c was 28? I have a canyon Grizl and it says 700c is 28 inch?? I am confused.

LightBicycle 2025/07/17
Hi James, We just sent AR465 road wheelset with DT Swiss 350 road disc hub quotation to your email. Please check. ETRTO / ISO bead-seat diameter • 700 C and 29er both use 622 mm as the actual rim-seat diameter. • That 622 mm is the only number that matters when you’re buying tyres or rims. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, if I orde/customize a wheelset, is it possible to select "silver"-spokes? Could not see this option. I assume stsandard colour of spokes is black. Thanks. Best Regards. Andreas

LightBicycle 2025/02/21
Hi Andreas, We have a small amount of silver Sapim cx-ray spokes in stock now. Please share your road disc wheelset details and I will calculate the spoke length for you first and then check if we have them in stock. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hello LightBicycle team, I would like a rim brake version of the AR465 or AR565 wheel assembled with carbon spokes (special edition). How much would it cost to buy these as a front and rear set? Best regards.

I'm looking to buy a wheelset for my gravel bike with disc brakes. I am going to be going tubeless for the first time and do almost all road riding, and hope to run 32mm tires as we have a lot of chip seal and want comfort and speed. Recommendations?

LightBicycle 2024/04/30
Hi Jim, Thanks for reaching out! We have sent an email to you regarding the inquiry. Please check and let me know if you have any further questions. Best regards, Light Bicycle

Hi LB team! I missed the boat on the Black Friday sale and one of the wheels I've shortlisted is a pair of AR465s. Do you think I can get a promo code to help me make this decision easier? :)

Good morning Lightbike team, I wish to order a Falcon Pro WHEELSET AR465 DISC or AR375 DISC made to order (full custom). While I can see that you offer Onyx Vesper hub model as an option in the wheel specs, this hub is missing from the hub model menu in your custom build form. Are you able to build a set with the Vesper hubs? If so, can you send me a quote for one pair of 24h Vesper hubs, please? Thanks! Petr

LightBicycle 2023/12/23
Hi Petr, Yes, of course. We can build Onyx Vesper hubs with AR465 road disc wheels for you. We just emailed you the quotation. Please check. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Todd 2021/11/11
I'm getting ready to order a pair of Falcon Pro AR465 discs. If I order from North America there is no choice regarding spoke holes. Does that mean the rims will come with spoke holes? Thanks

LightBicycle 2021/11/12
Hi Todd, Actually, when you finish choosing the hubs color, the spoke count is in the next option. We only have front 24H and rear 24H for AR465 disc wheelset 700C now. Thanks, Lightbicycle
