Sapim D-Light – The best all-around and most popular spoke for carbon wheels. Lightweight but incredibly strong.
Sapim Race – Our strongest and stiffest spoke. These spokes are suitable for heavy or extremely aggressive riders who need a stiffer wheel.
Sapim CX-Ray – The lightest spoke in our lineup is still quite strong due to the elasticity and amazing fatigue life.
DT Competition Race - All Mountain and XC spoke used by the Chinese location as a substitue for the D-Light (depending on availability)
Pillar PSR X-TRA 1420 - An inexpensive bladed spoke, great for road and cyclocross riding.
Pillar Wing 20 - Pillar patented highest level of aerodynamic bladed spoke reducing potential weak spots and twisting during tensioning. Currently, they are offered in oil slick color only with increased wear and corrosion resistance.
Sapim CX Sprint-Rear drive side/ CX Ray-Other sides - This customized combo increases the rear drive side power transmition efficiency significantly while grabs superior light-weight and aero performance.
Oil slick J-bend - They are made by a qualified manufacturer in Taiwan with custom design by Light Bicycle. They are J-bend only so do not order these spokes for SP hubs you configured in the previous step.
LB Thrust-4 Carbon - The Thrust-4 Carbon spokes are designed to boost high tensile strength. The 4mm all-road profile ensures great crosswind stability.
Berd PolyLight >> - It is constructed from an advanced polymer called ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and are widely considered to be the lightest bicycle spoke option in the world.

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.

With a stable 27mm inner width, U-shaped profile, and strong hookless design, the AM627 (WM26C03) provides an incredibly durable platform.

Versatility is the name of the game. The wheels mount 2.1” to 2.5” tires and tackles a huge range of terrain - all with the playfulness that only a 26” bike can provide. The EN layup has an extra wrap of 3k carbon fiber around the nipple bed, reinforced sidewalls to support G-out forces, and increased wheels stiffness, increasing suitability for aggressive riders over 200 pounds. The AM627 (WM26C03) features our new U-shaped profile, bead seat bumps, and a tubeless ready setup that is up for whatever the mountain brings.

Kurt : I’m a long time mtb fan, but have been expanding into other disciplines over the last few years. On the 13th May 2023 I raced at the Seven Gravel Race in Nannup, Western Australia, and placing 17 out of 99 finishers in my category (male; 40-44). Cool thing is I did it on a 26 mtb!
