Ratchet This is a required option.

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.

EXP 36 - With only a singlel spring, making the hubs faster and lighter, more complete engagement of the 36 ratchet teeth for more precise contact, and therefore a longer lifespan.

EXP 54 - Upgraded from EXP 36 to gain incredibly faster engagement.

Sapim D-Light – The best all-around and most popular spoke for carbon wheels. Lightweight but incredibly strong.
Sapim Race – Our strongest and stiffest spoke. These spokes are suitable for heavy or extremely aggressive riders who need a stiffer wheel.
Sapim CX-Ray – The lightest spoke in our lineup is still quite strong due to the elasticity and amazing fatigue life.

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.

Sapim CX Sprint-Rear drive side/ CX Ray-Other sides - This customized combo increases the rear drive side power transmition efficiency significantly while grabs superior light-weight and aero performance.

Oil slick J-bend - They are made by a qualified manufacturer in Taiwan with custom design by Light Bicycle. They are J-bend only so do not order these spokes for SP hubs you configured in the previous step.

Finish This is a required option.

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.

Weave This is a required option.

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 +50/rim

Center Channel Hole This is a required option.

WITH HOLES: This is the traditional method. 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.

WITHOUT HOLES: No 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.

Decal This is a required option.

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.

Tubeless Tape This is a required option.

One 10 yard roll of tape will be included. It is typically covers 2 rims with two laps each or 4 rims with one lap each.The high tensile tubeless tape features a natural rubber adhesive that does not leave a residue on the rims. On mountain bike rims, one layer of 18mm width tape is strong enough to seal the access holes which makes for the lightest tubeless setup.

Hello, I'm interested in the 45 clincher model. Are all of them for disc? Do you have any model specific for rim brakes? Thank you so much

LightBicycle 2020/05/30

Hi Amram, We don't have the rim brake version at the moment. It will be ready around one month later. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi Bernie, Yes, we can build the road disc wheelset AR45 with the hubs you want. But, the 6-bolt hubs are not in stock, so it will take a few weeks to get them. We are on Chinese New Year vacation recently, will be back on Feb 16th. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Having a wheelset built by you, are you able to build it with internal nipples? Falcon Pro Ar 45 is the model.

LightBicycle 2020/08/24

Hi Marcus, Did you order the internal option when you first placed the order Falcon pro AR45 pro road disc and wheelset? The internal nipple hole is smaller than the external holes to fit the nipples. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Matt 2020/08/31

I believe Marcus is asking if you can make the rim with the nipples INSIDE of the rim, so they are not showing, thus improving aerodynamics. He is not asking about center channel holes. I would also like to know the answer to Marcus' question.

LightBicycle 2020/09/01

Hi Matt, Of course, we can custom made the nipple as internal for all bike rims. The internal nipple is one of the many options that we haven't listed online. There's too much customization that we can do, so the wheel builder will turn out loading really slow if we put all options online. You can order the custom options by email. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Request for quote. Seeking for a set of carbon road wheels, black matt in color, 45-50cm. These will be going on my wife’s low power e-bike 240 watt. She is not a racer, we just want a nice looking aero wheelset. The e-bike has 160cm disk brakes, center lock , thru axle, and has boosted sizing so the hubs need to be 12 X 110 & 12 X 148. This is the set up for the Specialized Turbo Carbon Creo. What would be best price for these wheels keeping in mind that we are NOT seeking for super strength, or ultra light race wheels. Thank you.

LightBicycle 2020/05/30

Hi George, I will get back to you on the 12/110mm hub when I confirm the details from DT SWISS. We only have the standard boost 240 EXP hubs in our hands at the moment. Thanks, Lightbicycle
