TECH

Our swiss army knife of mountain bike rims: technical XC race, light enduro, endurance, or just good plain mountain biking! The AM927’s are really light, fast, compliant, and can create a quiver-killer wheelset.

A sensible 27mm internal width keeps things modern, but doesn’t overkill in the stiffness or width department. Want to run 2.1” tires for an XC race one day, 2.3’s for an all day epic, then burly 2.4’s for some double black trails the next? No problem! The AM927’s are a great choice for riders wanting a versatile lightweight rim that feels at home on a wide range of terrain.

Jared : I have two sets of Light rims. One on my mountain bike, one on my road bike. Laced to White Industry's, I have a beautiful set of Custom R45 Hex-comb rims. They absolutely changed the appearance and ride of the bike overall! I opted for the grooved braking surface which makes a massive difference in braking power. overall excellent quality rim and super happy!! I also laced a set of of Recon Pro for my 29" FS mountain bike to Hadley Hubs, I am a big rider....6'3" 240Lb. and these have been taking a beating so far. Super happy again with the level of durability and performance. Add that Light has given me outstanding customer service, I have zero reason to buy any other wheel or rim. Thank you!!

Jeremy : I bought 2 sets, 29 recon pro and 27.5+ wheelsets with I9 1/1 hubs. They have both been absolutely amazing wheels and have been transferred through multiple bike builds. I doubt I'll ever sell them.

Hi I interested in your am927. How much it cost to ship to Singapore? And if I want a complete wheelset. What avaliable hub do you have?


LightBicycle 2021/01/06

Hi Alan, 1. Yes, we can ship to Singapore. The cost will be USD75 for one 29er wheelset by EMS plus delivery. 2. You can go to the wheelset page to find out what's optional. https://www.lightbicycle.com/Hand-built-AM927-asymmetric-rim-profile-carbon-fiber-mtb-29er-wheels.html 3. If what you want is not listed, we also have lots of customization options that we can do for you. From finish to decals, spoke holes, etc. Hub list for your ref in case you like to know. https://www.lightbicycle.com/newsletter/Light-Bicycle-Bike-Hub-List-of-2020.html Thanks, Lightbicycle

Enrique 2021/01/03

Hi Good day! I was wondering if I can run a 43mm tyre (Panaracer gravel king sk) with these rims. I read about the rim WR38 with 25mm inner width accepting 32mm tyres without problems, so I guess a 27mm inner width won't be a problem for a 43mm tyres. am I right? Thank you very much in advance Cheers


LightBicycle 2021/01/04

Hi Enrique, The AM927 is an All Mountain specific MTB rim 29er , while WR38 is a gravel rim 700C. Theoretically, a road tire with 43c width (around 1.7") will be ok to mount. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Mike 2020/09/10

hi there - two questions: 1) can you make a flyweight version of the AM927 at about 330g? Weight limit would be 55kg for a very light woman. I will not ask for a warranty rim. 2) do you offer bicycle industry discounts/


LightBicycle 2020/09/11

Hi Mike, Yes, we can make an ultra-light version of AM927 29er bike rim. But the lightest we can get is 340g. For safety reasons, we cannot make the AM927 anything lighter. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Gio 2018/11/23

Hello, I purchased in the past some of your rims. I'm interested in your model AM927, with inner channel 27mm. I do XC racing and I already use other Chinese carbon rims, significatively lighter at 320-330gr inner cahnndl 27mm, T800. Is there a way to produce your AM927 in version flyweight, below 310gr or lighter? Thank you Best regards, G.Cristini


LightBicycle 2018/11/24

Hi Gristini, Thanks for your continuous support! If you like flyweight rims, we have XC925 29er XC rims as below. https://www.lightbicycle.com/XC925-asymmetric-rim-profile-carbon-29-inch-carbon-rims-mtb.html Thanks, Lightbicycle

Thomas 2019/01/09

Can you make this rim in a flyweight? I'm looking for 27mm internal, not the 25mm that you already make in flyweight.


LightBicycle 2019/01/09

Hi Thomas, If you like customized AM927 to be with lighter version, it can be around 35g~40g lighter. Is that okay for you? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Alexi 2019/05/08

Hi, Lightbicycle! Please confirm if you offer AM927 rim in light version. If you have had same experience, what weght could I expect? I would like to order. Thanks


LightBicycle 2019/05/10

Hi Alexi, do you like to customized lighter version for AM927 29er bike rim? We can manufacture 340g+/-15 version, but for customized lighter weight, it will need extra cost USD12 each. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Jay 2020/01/24

I'd be interested in how the custom "light weight" AM927 rims came out. Are they as durable? Are the dimensions different? Is the warranty different?


LightBicycle 2020/01/25

Hi Jay, Thanks for your reaching out!If you like customized lighter version of AM927 29 inch rims, we can make them around 20g~30g lighter. Does it work for you? The warranty is the same, still 5 years.Why do you need lighter version? May i know your weight and riding style? Do you ride aggressively? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, I'm interested in a pair of AM927 rims. I already have the Hope Pro 4 Boost (F+R, 32 holes) hubs. Do you guys also sell matching spokes? Could I please have a quote for the rims, spokes and nipples (black brass) posted to UK? Thanks!

Paul 2019/10/26

Hi team, I'm about to upgrade my bike to a HB 130. The rear hub is 130mm x17mm as Hope believe a symmetrical rear wheel is better. Is it possible to order one of these rims in symmetrical drilling?


LightBicycle 2019/10/26

Hi Paul, If you choose symmetric 29er rim, we have below RM29C07 35mm wide 29er bike rim. Does it work for you?https://www.lightbicycle.com/35mm-wide-29er-rims-beadless-for-bicycle-trail-or-mountain-bike-enduro-with-tubeless-compatibility.html  Thanks, Lightbicycle
