◂ Spokes ▸
The popular Pillar PSR AERO 1423 spokes are used.
The spokes are manufactured using Pillar's patented cold forging technology, increasing strength by up to 20%.
Featuring an aerodynamic streamlined design, they offer excellent elasticity and a low drag coefficient.

Carbon Fiber Material Our carbon gravel rims are manufactured using premium Toray T700 carbon fiber, combined with a stable resin system to ensure consistent quality and a lightweight structure for off-road cycling. |  |
Light Weight Design A carefully engineered lay-up structure using Toray T700 carbon prepreg enables a lightweight gravel carbon rims. Excess material is minimized to reduce weight, while reinforcement around the spoke holes ensures structural strength. The result is low weight without compromising strength or stiffness. |
 |
Wider Inner Width With widened 26mm internal width, these gravel rims are optimized for modern 700×40C–50C tires and remain compatible with even wider tires. The increased width provides better tire support, simplifies installation and removal, and enhances traction and cornering stability. |  |
Aero U-Shape Profile The wide U-shaped rim profile offers improved aerodynamic efficiency compared to traditional V-shaped designs, helping to reduce drag at higher speeds. It also enhances airflow stability in crosswinds, while contributing to increased stiffness and overall structural strength. |
 |
Bead Lock Design Subtle ridges along both sides of the carbon rim channel—known as bead locks—help facilitate easier tubeless tire inflation. Combined with a hooked bead design, they ensure a secure tire fit and reduce the risk of blowouts. |  |
Tubeless Ready Tubeless setups are mainstream in for gravel bike wheelset due to improved grip, lower rolling resistance, and enhanced comfort. All of our gravel carbon rims are tubeless compatible while still supporting standard inner tubes. An optimized anti-burp profile ensures straightforward tire installation, removal, and inflation. |
