Description

Wheels ready to go for when you need them fast. Options below will be greyed-out (unavailable) when not in stock – anything available to buy should be in stock.

High performance lightweight road wheelset based around our lightest hubs including stainless bearings, laced to our 25mm wide (20mm internal), tubeless compatible road rim.

The Lark rim features a 20mm internal width to support tyres of any width from 25mm upwards and improve handling and air flow over the rim for faster riding. The rear wheel is built with a 2:1 lacing pattern with 16 spokes on the drive side and 8 on the non-drive-side for maximum strength and even spoke tensions.

We recommend the Lark Light J-bend wheelset for riders up to 85kg. If you are looking for stronger wheels for touring or commuting try our Lark strong wheels with higher spoke counts and no rider weight limits.

During the building process all components are bedded in, stretched, and tensioned repeatedly so the wheels won’t go out of true. We inspect, check and finish every wheel with equal care.
