TECH

The wheels use an easy to set up tubeless system complete with bead retention that still allows for quick tire changes. Of course you can still use tubes as required.


From all day epics and marathon events to hard charging short track XC racing, these wheels have a huge performance edge over wheelsets in this weight and price category. To achieve this kind of weight with an alloy wheelset, you have to make sacrifices to rim strength or width, stiffness, and build strength.

WARRANTY

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.

Les : I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how much I have been enjoying my Light Bicycle wheelset - they are awesome! I have a season of hard riding on them, and they are holding up great! They are light, stiff and fast! Everything I was hoping for! They also look AMAZING! The stickers matched up very well with my bike - I love my Light Bicycle wheels! I will be in the market next year for a set of Cyclocross wheels, and I am definitely coming to Light Bicycle for them!

But we can declare the value lower, then you do not have to pay high tax cost. Please let us know the value you expect us to declare, then we will do accordingly. It is okay to ship to Guangdong China. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Tony 2017/12/08

Hi,what type of carbon wheel set would you suggest for me I race in cross country events in new zealand.

LightBicycle 2017/12/09

Hello Tony, Thanks for your inquiry！ We have 29er 27mm wide standard/flyweight rim and 28mm wide asymmetric rim for XC riding. May I know your weight? Do you ride aggressively? Then we will do some recommendations. DT 240S hubs and Sapim cx-ray spokes are the lightest hubs and spokes we have here. Does that work for you? What hubs axle size for front and rear? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Jeff 2016/12/09

I don't see your rim's specifications that would be necessary for me to order the right spokes. What is this rim's ERD? (diameter measured from the nipple seat) And since the rim design is asymmetrical, how much does that change the spoke lengths? Perhaps you could just do the spoke length calculations for me? I would like to use these rims with DTSwiss 350 hubs, 28 hole, straight pull, IS disc and using 100x15mm thru axle front with 12x142 thru axle rear. I believe that is all the detail you need. Thanks.

LightBicycle 2016/12/10

Hello Jeff, The XC923 rim ERD is 593mm (not including nipple head dimension). Below are the spokes length for your reference. Due to the complexity and variations with calculating spoke lengths, we cannot guarantee the spokes will be the perfect length for your wheels. So, it is best to confirm the spokes length with your own builder. -Wheelset: XC923 built with DT 350 straight pull 28H hubs -Lacing pattern: 3 cross for front and rear -Front wheel: 300mm-NDS, 302mm-DS -Rear wheel: 302mm-NDS, 300mm-DS Thanks, Lightbicycle

Clint 2016/11/29

I have DT240s center lock 32H hubs and would like to know you can sell the same? Or do you only have them 28H and if so why?

LightBicycle 2016/11/30

Hello Clint, Thanks for your inquiry. Recently, only 28H for DT 240S straight pull center lock hubs in stock. For DT 240 J-bend center lock 32H hubs, they are out of stock and will be available around 1.5 months later. What hubs axle size do you like for front and rear? With freehub body Shimano or Sram?

29er 2016/11/11

Hi LB, I am 89 kg and ride XC. I would like to get a wheelset that is light for my races, yet strong enough to support my weight. Would you recommend the XC923 rim and will a 28H or 32H be better? I intend to use DT Swiss 240s center lock if possible. And how much is the shipment to Singapore for the wheelset?

LightBicycle 2016/11/12

Hello Faisal, Thanks for your inquiry. According to your info, I think our XC923 is strong enough for your riding. Normally, we recommend 32H wheles. More spokes give the rim greater strength and rigidity. But only 28H for DT 240S straight pull center lock hubs are available, does that work for you? Thanks, Lightbicycle
