The secret to going fast is to give yourself every competitive advantage -- train hard, eat right, sleep right and ride the best and lightest components. Buying the right wheelset is quite possibly the fastest and easiest way to get faster -- and the Industry Nine Ultralite Wheelset answers every call. To create the Industry Nine UL Wheelset, Industry Nine takes their already lightweight, super durable All-Mountain wheelset and intelligently trims any fat possible.
About the only visible difference between the Industry Nine Ultralite Wheelset and the Industry Nine All-Mountain Wheelset is the Stan's No Tubes 355 rim featured in the UL version. The Industry Nine Ultralite Wheelset uses Industry Nine Ultralite spokes, machined from 7075-T6 aluminum to .090" instead of the standard .100" diameter. These are laced to their proprietary hubs featuring 3 degrees of engagement -- ideal for quick starts and technical climbs. Instead of the standard 17-4 Stainless Steel endcaps, the UL wheelset receives alloy endcaps, sacrificing a bit of durability for another 40 or so precious grams -- every little bit counts.
The stock Industry Nine Ultralite Wheelset is available with matching spokes and hubs in anodized silver, red or black laced to a Stan's No Tubes 355 rim. Simply make your selection below. If these options aren't what you had in mind, give us a ring or drop us a line as Industry Nine can customize a wheelset in most any color combination on any rim -- it will require a wait of 6-8 weeks though. And, those of you that are looking to save another 30 grams can do so by special ordering the Industry Nine Ultralite Wheelset with a 3 pawl engagement mechanism, which provides 6 degrees of engagement -- no upcharge here, but there is a wait. Skewers are not included. 1440g
