MEET THE BSD CRBN-XLT CARBON RIM

Introducing the all-new BSD CRBN-XLT carbon fibre rim — engineered specifically to handle the demands of modern BMX street and park riding. Constructed from premium Toray T700 carbon fibre, the CRBN-XLT delivers exceptional rigidity while weighing just 340g (12oz), providing an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio. The significant reduction in rotating mass transforms the way your bike feels, making hopping and spinning feel much easier and giving a more responsive ride. Designed with ultra thick sidewalls and spoke seats and aligned cross-over lacing to enhance spoke durability, it’s available in both brakeless and brake-specific versions with a brake pad ready surface on the sidewall.

Extensively tested over five years by the BSD team - including Alex Donnachie, Kriss Kyle, Gaspar Guendulain, Andriy Podoba and Guy Scroggie - the CRBN-XLT strikes the perfect balance between lightweight design and heavy-duty performance.

KEY FEATURES
