TECH

Is it possible to get fatter and lose weight at the same time? Thanks to a lightweight single wall design, the FS680 rims save a pound of rotational weight compared to most alloy wheelsets, all while adding lateral stiffness. Weighing in at just 500g per rim, you’ll drop a significant amount of rotational weight from your fatbike without compromising strength or stiffness.

Example Wheelset Build: ONLY 1700G! Rims: FS680 Hubs: Tune Fat King/Fat Kong Spokes: Sapim CX-RAY Nipples: Sapim Polyax Secure Lock

Each wheel from Light Bicycle is built using the best industry practices by professional builders, ensuring your investment stands the test of time.

Tech Notes: 1. Bladed spokes or Sapim D-Light's are recommended for the FS680 wheelset. DT Swiss Comp Race or Revolution spokes stretch out too easily and would cause a poor wheel build with a single wall rim. 2. Use nipples with a standard head or Sapim Hex nipples only. Nipples with a tall head will cause an issue with the tubeless tape. 3. DO NOT use tire levers to install a tire or to unseat a tire on FS680 rims. The wall thickness is quite thin just past where your tire sits, and you may damage this area by prying on it!

Is it possible to get 177 rear spacing?


LightBicycle 2024/01/25

Hi Lynn, Thanks for reaching out. Yes, we can supply the Onyx 12*177mm rear hub. Do you like Hope or DT Swiss 350 or Onyx fat bike hubs for fat bike wheels? Thanks, Lightbicycle

I would like to have a wheel built using the FS680 rim, but i would like to have it built with Onyx hubs. Is this a possibility? Thanks


LightBicycle 2019/05/05

Hi Nathan, Yes, Onyx fat hubs are available. Which size are you looking for? Do you like fat bike wheelset with front 15*150mm/rear 12*197mm? Thanks, Lightbicycle

When will this size be available in 27.5? Several bike companies are moving to that wheel size.


LightBicycle 2018/11/16

Hi Marc, In fact, we do have future plans for making a 650b fat bike rim version of this rim (single wall profile). But I am afraid that have to wait till we got the result from our market analyzing. We need to see if there's a market demand on this. Thank you for bringing this to us. I will let you know when this is settled. You can also follow our on social media to get the fresh news. Thanks, Lightbicycle
