  • The newest line of rims from We Are One.
    Made in Kamloops, Canada, this mountain bike rim design places the spoke holes on beveled surfaces to better distribute force, allowing for a rim that gives where you need it and not where you don't.

    There are so many different designs now,riders really need a comparison across many different manufacturers to help understand the ride feel. Also spoke comparisons would be great.

    NOBL’s premium rims also have a unique shape to them. I believe they call it sine curve shape.

    • @FanatikBikeCo
      @FanatikBikeCo  Год назад +5

      I have seen the NOBL rims. Their rim shape is more of a bump at each nipple hole which they claim is for better lateral stiffness and not necessarily spoke articulation like the wave on these WA1 rims. Definitely cool seeing carbon manufactures try out some unique and innovative shapes to give you a better ride. Pretty stoked on how these new WA1 rims ride. We'll have a video out soon with a little side by side ride comparison with the "old" WA1 rims

    • @BuffiestFluff
      @BuffiestFluff Год назад

      Theirs seem more like reinforcement on the nipples, VS an entirely different wheel shape. Crankbrothers have a cool one where the entire bed seems to pop out a little bit too.

    • @cccpkingu
      @cccpkingu Год назад

      I think it is more bringing offset angled spokes to a rim with symmetrical holes.
      Any other way of doing it something has to not work as intended or to capacity, so you really get a lot for free with this design.

    Nice! Almost the same as the rims WAO did for Berd's Hawk series, 18mm rim depth. This is good because I want the 27.5 and Hawk series only has 29 option. When will the 27.5 be available? Thanks!

      Like we mentioned only the 30mm internal rim width option will be available in 27.5. Its the Triad rim. We have them on order and should see them in stock in the next couple weeks

    Oh not to mention it’s looks like your wheels are 🌮 when spinning, to bad this design isn’t below the traditional rim shape with an outer layer.
