The 25mm inner width and U-shape profile are engineered for tubeless tyre fitment. A tubeless-ready rim tape and valve are required and sold separately. Q: Should I choose 35mm or 40mm height for gravel riding? A: 35mm is recommended for technical or mixed-surface gravel where vertical compliance and handling agility are priorities.

Q: What is the weight difference between Superlight and Ultralight versions? A: The Superlight weighs 410±10g per rim; the Ultralight weighs 360±10g per rim — a nominal 50g difference per rim, or approximately 100g for a full wheelset build. Q: What tyre widths are compatible with the 25mm inner width? A: A 25mm inner width is compatible with tyres from approximately 28c to 50c.
