What are the best performance bike wheels for riders over 100kg? And what about those annoyingly light riders who happen to push out huge watts?

Lightweight high performance carbon bike wheels and riders who weigh more than 100kg are too often not a good match. And high power riders put just about the same extra demands on a set of wheels as much heavier riders developing less power.

All our carbon wheels are relatively light, and offer top line performance that everyone can enjoy, and the good news is that we can make them specifically for the demands of the super powerful and the heavy. That's why you'll find a "Your Weight" button when ordering from our webstore. If you've ever called us up to talk wheels then you'll already know that this is one of the first questions I ask along with what type of rider are you and what type of riding you do.

The secret to choosing the best wheels to suit you and the way you ride is understanding the factors that determine stiffness and strength. Your wheels need to handle not only your weight at a standstill, but also the dynamic loads under full power and also when cornering and braking to the extreme. As with many of our FAQ series answers, when it comes to the Fat Boy wheels we make, rim depth rather than adding a few extra spokes is the key.
