Description

The Zolder rim was designed to fill one of the largest gaps in that market, the disc-specific CX race-worthy rim designed around modern tubular tires. To accomplish this, we created a lightweight disc-specific full carbon tubular rim with a gluing surface with our all new CXT contoured rim bed. This design is a unique “C” shaped contour (versus the “V” you find on most rims) and it fits the tire perfectly, ensuring that gluing is optimized and that the tires are secure no matter how crazy the course gets. Let’s face it, disc brakes are the future of CX, so we made the rim disc brake specific, giving us more freedom to optimize the rim for weight and strength while including our trademark asymmetrical offset to equalize spoke tension and build into a stronger and stiffer wheel. You’ll notice the rim shape sheds mud and course debris to keep the wheel as light as possible during races.

The Zolder Disc takes advantage of the UniWeave™ layup, and the Nox patent-pending CXT contoured rim bed. The rim weight is 325 grams, with a wide 23mm gluing surface, 26mm outer width, a disc-specific mud-shedding 27mm profile and asymmetrical spoke offset of 2.6mm. Available with multiple drilling options and we can build your dream wheels using a wide selection of top-shelf hub options.

Our wheelsets are hand built right here in Tennessee using only the best components and techniques; Sapim CX-Ray or Race spokes and premium hard anodized alloy or brass nipples. Wheel builds come ready to be used with a tubeless tire setup including our TPP tape and black alloy tubeless valves installed. All custom wheelsets are built to order and it may take 2-3 weeks before wheelsets ship.
