MTB carbon rim profile

TECH

Our new generation of Flyweight XC rims are updated with a wider profile and a front/rear specific layup. They are targeted towards cross country racers who seek every possible edge on the course.

Our goal with this iteration was to produce the lightest possible rim-set without sacrificing performance or 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 reduction. The rear rim uses a continuous spoke bed and a stiffer reinforced layup design to create a balanced feel between the front and rear wheels.

Now with a wider profile, increased resistance to impacts, as well as a tailored front/rear design, the XC925' build the ultimate XC race wheelset.

Garret: Mounting was easier than what I have experienced with 26-inch wheels. I could not get the tubeless valve to seal, so I mounted the tire ghetto style with the inner half of a tube as a liner that lays between the rim and tire, with its own valve stem. I have only done tubeless this way in the past, so its a familiar situation for me that has worked quite well.

If Rider + bike is 80 kls, this wheelset will be ok?

LightBicycle 2020/12/21

Hi Alex, The 90kg weight limit for XC925 refers to the rider weight, so your weight would be ok. However, if you plan to do some aggressive riding from time to time. I would suggest going standard on the back wheel 29er, or 32H for wheelset. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi team do you have a rim I could use as a direct replacement for my Enve M50 29er, I would like to be able to reuse my current spokes and nipples.

LightBicycle 2020/10/02

Hi Bryan, Thanks for your inquiry! Normally, when you place the rim, the spokes will have to be changed. The spoke length has to be different for different rims. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi. I’m looking at the XC925 wheelset for my Lefty (2.0). What hub options do you have available, prefer the DT Swiss 350 rear hub. Which hub options should I select to get a price? Can you ship to South Africa? Regards Bernard

LightBicycle 2019/09/20

Hi Bernard, We have Powerway front lefty hub and rear DT 350 hub. Is it rear 12*142mm or 12*148mm boost for this 29er XC wheelset? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, I’m looking at building a wheel set with the new onyx vesper hubs and wondering if you know when they will be available in non boost rear, rs-1 boost front with center lock disc mounting? Thanks, Will

LightBicycle 2019/09/07

Hi Will, The Onyx Vesper hubs that you wanted is available for order now, the front MTB Boost Center lock, RS-1 15*110mm thru-axle, and the rear 12/142mm. Do you like XC925 with Onyx hubs and sapim cx-ray bladed spokes? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Ricardo 2019/06/06

What is a 15-110 RS-1 front axle and difference from regular boost? Thanks!

LightBicycle 2019/06/06

Hi Ricardo, The RS-1 Fork's larger than usually closed dropouts and the Torque Tube hub that houses a pair of massive sealed bearings. There's one bearing on each side, with them sitting on a 27mm diameter axle that spans the hub, and a 15mm Maxle Ultimate runs through the center of all of this to compress the left and right dropouts together onto the matching hub-ends that fit into the dropouts. You can learn more about SRAM RS-1 hubs at https://www.pinkbike.com/news/rockshox-rs-1-review.html Are you order 29er XC wheelset with standard 15*110mm boost or 15*110mm PS for RS-1 fork? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Andrew 2019/05/20

Interested in purchasing a single speed wheel set with i9 Hydra 142x12 SS rear and 100x15 front. Do you stock these hubs in North America? If so, which colors? What is the lead time in building wheels with these hubs and XC925 rims?

LightBicycle 2019/05/21

Hi Andrew, Sorry that we don' t have the Industry Nine Hydra single speed wheelset in stock at the moment. Are you in a rush or plan to run the wheelset for a race? If so, when are you expect the wheelset to your hands? The hubs will take about 2-3 weeks to ship from NA warehouse. Is this ok with you? If yes, we can quote the price for XC925 29er XC wheelset accordingly. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, I am interested in the XC925 wheel set with i9 101 hubs, boost front and rear, 32hole - what is the lead time on a full build?

LightBicycle 2019/05/13

Hi Alex, Do you have requests for the lead time Are you attending any race? It would be helpful for order arrangement if you can let me know. Since you are in the US, it would be faster to purchase the XC925 29er wheelset from the North America warehouse. Here's the share link from my cart. https://www.lightbicycle.com/site/share-cart?id=391 Is this the setup you like to have? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Ken 2019/03/24

I am looking to buy XC925 wheels, using DT 350 hubs, 12x100 front and 12x142 rear, SRAM XD, J-bend spokes, Centre lock brakes and 28 spokes. Are you out of stock of these hubs in 28 hole? If I choose 6-bolt brakes I have the option of both 28 and 32 spokes, but with Centre-lock only 32? I don't really want to use straight pull spokes, though might be persuaded. Presumably you can supply 12mm axle end caps in place of 15mm?

LightBicycle 2019/03/25

Hi Ken, We do not have DT 350 J-bend 28H center lock hubs in stock. We only have DT Swiss 240S 28H J-bend center lock in stock. Or DT Swiss 350 28H straight pull center lock is okay for you? We only stock DT Swiss straight pull 28H hubs here. Is it XC925 29er XC wheelset with 28H hub okay for you? Thanks, Lightbicycle
