Kitsuma Custom Wheelset

Description

When you’re staring down a fall line psyching yourself up for riding at your limit, these are the times when a rim like the Kitsuma belongs on your bike. When you put properly sized 2.6-3.0″ tires on this rim, get ready to experience grip and lateral holding forces like you didn’t think were possible on a mountain bike. The wide rims provide a combination of stiffness, stability, compliance, low rolling resistance and raw grip are game changing. Note: If you are planning to run 2.1-2.35″ tires, you will be better served with one of our narrower rims.

The Kitsuma gets all of our latest technology, including UniWeave construction, the Anti-Burp Bump, the strongest RockGuard Hookless bead lip we’ve ever made and of course our asymmetric offset design which improves spoke tension equality by more than 15%.

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.
