Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: DFS Carbon Wheels
« on: January 06, 2026, 04:07:06 PM »Ideally, I’d prefer a wider internal width (24–25mm). DFS rims are 25mm, and they’ve now introduced a SUXL rim using the same profile as their other models. When I asked how they managed to achieve a lighter rim with the same profile, they explained these rims use T1100 carbon vs T1000. The rims are rated for 90kg rider weight (not system load limit) and have passed 95J impact testing.
238g hubs (20/20H) carbon spokes 3.2mm, This setup comes in at 982g total weight , which is impressive.
And they do hidden carbon spoke nipples I like!
In total agreement with you. Any price quote on this build yet? I wonder if we'll see a Lunar New Year discount next month.
