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.

Full Custom: This option (if provided here to choose) offers custom finish such as Satin/Raw etc at no extra charge but subject to rim models with 1-2 weeks 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 TAILORED REQUIREMENT IN THE NOTES AT CHECKOUT, we will reach out to you once the order is placed.

Weave This is a required option.

Drain Hole This is a required option.

The two small drain holes located 90° to the valve hole help evacuate the water trapped inside the rim, using the centrifugal force of rolling wheels.

It is the small reinforced patch prelaminated on the area where the drain hole is drilled later that makes the rim strength fairly ensured without any compromise of weight rise.

Riders who ride in wet areas are suggested to order rims with drain holes.

Rufus: Here’s my Yeti ARC, it’s very much been a dream build. Built with LB AM930 Rims, DT Swiss 240 Hubs. 140mm Suspension up front on my Hardtail, this bike is built for ripping. Super strong, but light too. The LB wheels are the perfect compliment for this bike. Scalpel like handling, climbs like a goat, and descends like a rocket. Love my LB Rims. Great service too.

COMMENTS

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
