Hole Count This is a required option.

Please note that our valves are drilled for presta and spoke holes are made for external nipples by default.

Full Custom: This option (if provided here to choose) offers custom drilling for any other hole counts or special drilling (e.g G3/ 2:1 etc), most of which are at no extra charge. 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.

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.

Paintless

Glossy Crystal Painting (silver) USD +20

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.

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

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

Decal This is a required option.

1. Grey Laser Engraving (Recon 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.

Grey Laser Engraving (Recon Pro)

Blank (No decal)

Full Custom (Laser only) USD +5

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.

Our new wide format All Mountain rim is a show stopper with its new scratch resistant BlackTek finish. Run all your favourite high volume tires and enjoy the benefits of our modern asymmetric profile.

Our goal with this iteration was to produce the lightest possible rim set without sacrificing performance and reliability. The ultralight front rim utilizes a blend of Toray T700 and T800 carbon fiber and receives our spoke hole patching treatment which maximizes weight savings. The 30mm internal width has become one of the most popular widths in recent years, and for good reason! With the advancement of lightweight wide carbon rims, you get the traction and high volume benefits of a wide rim without all of the added weight. The AM930’s will give you a more reliable tubeless fit, increased stiffness, and significantly lower weight over a stock wheelset. Breath new life into your bike!

Dylan : 65 hours of deep snow, thick mud, swift creek crossings, sand, and grit. These were the conditions on this year’s Stagecoach 400 Ultra Endurance Bikepacking Race I just completed with my Light Bicycle AM930 carbon wheelset. During a race like this, sleep deprivation, calorie chasing, and consistent moving time are my main objectives - not worrying about components or mechanicals. This is where the AM930’s just work! They’re burly enough to handle chunky singletrack with heavy bikepacking loads, light enough to roll fast and stay nimble, and a perfect balance of flex and stiffness you only get from quality materials and expert wheel building, all for a great price and with exceptional customer service.

Matt 2021/06/29

Hi, would like to do a custom wheel build w/ AM930 rims and DT 240 EXP boost hubs. I have a couple questions for your North American warehouse before ordering: 1) can you build this wheelset with *Silver* CX-Ray spokes, and gold Sapim nipples? 2) can you build with 2x (two-cross) lacing on both wheels? 3) how long would it take to build and ship these wheels to California? Seriously interested, Matt

LightBicycle 2021/06/30

Hi Matt, Please check our reply as below. 1. We do not have silver spokes available here. We have gold aluminum sapim nipples. 2. It is okay to lace both front and rear 29er wheels in 2-cross 3. It takes around 20 days to build this wheelset AM930, and another 10~15 days for delivery. Does it work for you? We have 32H UD in stock, they can be shipped in 3 days if you order 32H wheelset 29er AM930. Thanks, Lightbicycle
