Velocity USA

At 800g per rim, the B43 was a triple-walled rim we did indeed manufacture in the mid-late 2000s. We wanted something stronger and stiffer than the Deep V. Weight? Who cared. Would we do it again? Ehhhh. The support on the inside of the join was necessary for added strength, but it made rolling it more difficult. Although nothing bad ever happened with its namesake... maybe not the bar we'd want for a product name today. As Mitch suggested, "if we made that rim today, it'd probably be a little taller so we could name it the B-52s." 🎶 Alternatively, we still do manufacture the Deep V and the Chukker rims, if you're after something tall and sturdy.

We had plans to introduce our new DEEPEST and DEEPER rims in the Deep V line up today designed for aerodynamic 19mm to 38mm width tires for April Fool's, but we got nervous someone *might* actually want these rims & they would be a NIGHTMARE to roll on the roller. 🤣

Well, dang. Our cast has changed a bit over the years, but one face you could count on seeing in the wheel department from time to time was the world's best wheel builder, Bill Mould. Trading an Air Force career for bike mechanics, he invested a great deal of time toward understanding the physics and engineering of bicycle wheels. He loved visiting and presenting the science behind wheel building to our crew. He always checked in with us, graciously shared his knowledge of rims and wheel building, and enjoyed catching up and sharing a beer or two with Matt. RIP to a legend. We know you're still building, researching, and conducting experiments somewhere up there.
