We are now a Dealer of BST Rims. These things are damn sweet.
What's so great about BST Carbon Fiber wheels?
BST wheels are 40-60% lighter than stock wheels and will reduce a bike's Moment of Inertia (ie. less energy is required to start or stop the bike) and reduce the gyroscopic effect of the wheels. Carbon fiber wheels are also stronger than traditional wheels. This means that:
Faster acceleration
Faster braking
Easier cornering and manueverability
Ultra-high tolerance to damage
Low corrosion susceptibility
A very cool 3D appearance
The lightest, stronger motorcycle wheel available
How light is a BST carbon fiber rim? A Suzuki GSXR 1000 2005-2006 front wheel is 5.8 lbs, the rear wheel is 8.8 lbs and the sprocket carrier is 2.0 lbs! To contrast, a set of forged aluminum rims can be over 24.0 lbs, nearly 8.0 lbs more!
