RIMS
BWT wheels use both genuine T800 and T1000 Toray carbon fiber. Both types of fibers have different properties and strengths. The number of layers, type of carbon fiber, location as well as their direction have all been carefully chosen. The result of this design and complex manufacture is an exceptionally strong and lightweight wheel.
BWT’s is specifically designed to be aerodynamic. The design has another benefit, which is to reduce the effect of crosswinds, giving the wheelset increased stability. Riders can feel confident in windy conditions like never before. The BWT DISC45’s 28mm outer rim width reduces rolling resistance, as tires on a wider rim roll faster.
The rim’s outer width of 28mm can accomodate a variety of tires ranging from 700*23C to 700*33C.
HUB
The front and rear hubs are made of 7075 aluminum which is known for it’s high strength. The lightweight freehub uses a 36t ratchet system.
The front and rear hubs use Taiwanese TPI bearings. They are both quick release and thru-axle compatible. Both Shimano and SRAM XDR freebodys are available.
SPOKES
The wheels are handbuilt and come with Sapim CX-Ray spokes as standard. Each wheel is stress relieved 16 times and retrued twice. These extra steps allow for each wheel to stay within 0.2mm of true.
Each pair of BWT wheels comes with a pair of skewers, tubeless valves, as well as tubeless rim tape.

Awesome Wheelset. Look better in real life and build quality was very good. Light and roll really well while holding speed easily
came ready to roll with tubeless tape and valves installed which is a great inclusion. Looking forward to putting a lot more kms on them. .
