The Alpine rim is brand new to the Stans line up. Think of it as a light weight baby brother to the Olympic. Saving more grams over the Olympic yet retaining most of it’s strength, it also features improved BST – Bead Socket Technology – to give improved sealing, easier inflation and banish ‘burping’. Weighing in at only 330g this rim is as light as leading manufacturers carbon rims at a fraction of the price.
All our wheels are handbuilt here on site by our pair of master wheelbuilders who have over 30 years of wheelbuilding experience between them. We build all our wheels using 3 cross lacing with 32 hole hubs and rims. We can also build radial, 4 cross and crow’s foot but we draw the line at snowflakes!
If the rim, hub, spoke or lacing combination you require is not listed here please contact us and we will happily help you
We realise that rotational weight makes a big difference to the way a bike rides, so we’ve listed weights below to assist you in having the right wheel or wheelset (These component weights are as stated in various manufacturers documentation and we will not be held to any inaccuracies).
