Pillar PSR X-TRA 1420 - An inexpensive bladed spoke, great for road and cyclocross riding.

RIM SPECS
Is it possible to get fatter and lose weight at the same time? Maybe not for you, but for your Fatbike it sure is! At only 580g, the 85mm fat bike wheelset will save you the better part of a pound of your bike when compared to alloy wheelsets all while adding far more lateral stiffness than that heavier aluminum rim.
The FAT680 80mm inner width is perfect for all-conditions fat bike riding. It's wide enough to tackle deep snow and sand, but still nimble enough to be fun to ride on tight single track. An 80mm diameter also means that you can run anything from a standard 4.3″ fatbike tire to the massive 5.0″ tires that are starting to become more and more popular.
Hookless Design: Our hookless design has consistent carbon compaction and there are no voids in the layup, providing the rim with a greater capability to withstand sharp impacts.
Manufacturing process: Our air bladders are made from a special material which produces smoother walls, result in a lighter rim, and are completely removed without harsh chemicals. They are removed through the valve hole with a unique process so that the rim does not have to be patched like traditional manufacturers use. This significantly improves the strength of the rims. Read More about our process
T700: Constructed with premium Toray T700 carbon fiber. The best strength to weight ratio with no expense spared.
Double-wall: Double-wall construction makes fat bike rim with better stiffness and ride handling.
Fast tire installtion: deeper tire bead channel provides easy tire mounting & dismounting for fat bike wheels.
Precise layup: Each rim carries its own layup schedule documents which are followed meticulously by the layup workers. Our Engineering team creates a unique fiber orientation which amplifies the desired riding characteristics for a given rim.
Bead lock: The small ridges on either side of the drop channel help secure tubeless tires in place. The bead lock makes it easier to seal up tubeless tires with a floor pump, and they are incredibly hard to burp.
For Non-Pro Series Rims: From the date of purchase, 3-year Standard Warranty.
For Pro Series Rims: From the date of purchase, 5-year Pro Warranty as standard and an upgraded optional lifetime Premium Warranty with minimum charge.
Crash Replacement: It is applicable with the same period as the warranty time range that you purchased for the rims with 10% /25% discount for Non-Pro series /Pro series.
