BMC : The rims have been with me since February 2015 and still hold true form. Great to be on tour within the Ironman 70.2 circuit knowing their quality.

Douglas 2018/07/27

I was wondering if you have a version of this 88mm deep tubular rim without the braking track? I need to build up a wheel set that will be used only on the Velodrome and will not need a brake track. Also, any rims deep than 88mm? Thanks for your time. Douglas

LightBicycle 2018/07/28

Hi Douglas, Hi Douglas, Do you like 88mm tubular disc wheelset? If yes, please check below link. You can pick disc hubs first, please find picture 01 for your reference. https://www.lightbicycle.com/carbon-88mm-wheels-road-bicycle-700c-tubular.html Or do you like full disc wheelset(no spokes) like the picture i sent in last emails? Thanks, Lightbicycle

matthew 2016/12/08

Hello, can you do custom spoke hole count? I need a 21 hole rim in ~88m Tubular. This is a strange type, but I am replacing a current rim and have photos to show that it is 21 holes. Thanks.

LightBicycle 2016/12/09

Hello Matthew, Thanks for your inquiry. Sure. We can manufacture the 88mm tubular rim in 21H. Is 21H drilled evenly on the rim? If not, please help to show us some pictures of the spoke hole drilling pattern. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Adam 2016/06/22

Hello, I wanted a 16H, 88mm tubular rim for a TT bike but the only one you have is described as a "cyclo-cross" rim. Do you have a suitable rim for a front wheel of a TT bike with those specs?

Light-Bicycle 2016/06/23

Hello Adam, Thanks for your inquiry. Our 88mm rim is able for time trial bike also. Currently, we have new U shape 88mm tubular rim. It is with special material and New high TG resin, it will provide better braking surface performance than basalt braking surface. Would you like to have a try? Rim profile attached for reference. It is okay to manufacture 16H for rims. Thanks, Light-bicycle
