Frequently Asked Questions

Can I build a wheel with this rim?
Yes, the rim has a standard spoke hole count (28/32) and is compatible with most DH hubs. You'll need proper spokes and nipples.
Does the carbon rim have a warranty?
Crankbrothers offers a 2-year warranty on carbon rims, covering manufacturing defects. The lifetime rim warranty applies to alloy rims only.

Carbon rim dreams
Finally got a carbon rim without breaking the bank. It's incredibly light and stiff. I mounted it for downhill riding and it handled everything I threw at it. The price was unbeatable.

Great but be careful with tire mounting
The rim is superb – great finish, solid. But mounting tires was a pain; it's very tight. Once done, it rides beautifully. For the discount, it's a no-brainer.

Solid DH wheel rim
I built this into a front wheel and it's been true after several hard rides. The carbon layup seems strong. However, I wish it came with rim tape and valves. Still, a great deal.

Incredible value for carbon
I've ridden carbon wheels before, and this one feels just as good as expensive ones. The rim is wide, which improves tire stability. At $99, it's a steal. I'm tempted to buy another for the rear.

Nice but shipping took ages
The rim is fine, but it took forever to arrive. Also, I expected a tubeless-ready rim but it wasn't. I had to tape it. Otherwise, it looks and rides good.

Perfect for my DH build
I paired this with a DT Swiss hub and it's been flawless. The carbon is high quality, and the rim bed is strong. I've had no issues with impacts. Great product at an amazing price.

Good rim, but check width before buying
Make sure your tire and bike fit this rim width. It's a bit narrower than I expected, but it works fine. Quality is top-notch, and the price is fair.
