Berd HAWK27 Carbon 29" MTB Wheelset

Description

More Speed Over Rough Terrain

Ideal for cross country and trail racing and riding, Berd HAWK27 Carbon MTB wheels combine lightweight and vibration damping Berd spokes with 27 mm internal carbon rims.

HAWK27 rims are only 18 mm deep, which are the lowest profile 27 mm internal double-wall carbon rims ever made. This unique design yields engineered radial compliance and high lateral stiffness. The combination of vibration damping Berd spokes and the radial compliant rim means more speed over rough terrain and less rider fatigue.

With a wide 3.75 mm rim lip, Berd's rims spread out tire/rim impacts across a larger surface area to prevent tire and rim damage during acute impacts.

Berd spokes are made from an advanced polymer called ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) that has 12 times the strength-to-weight ratio of steel and floats on water. Berd spokes have an improved fatigue life compared to steel and are impervious to the elements.

Bringing it All Together

At the center of the Hawk wheels are the Berd Talon hubs. Berd TALON hubs feature a clean spoke interface designed to work exclusively with Berd spokes. The TALON hubs also include removable end caps for easy serviceability, centerlock brake mounts, and a durable black anodized finish.

The dual-sprung 54 tooth ratchet mechanism is designed to be easy to service and offers excellent reliability.

HAWK27 Carbon wheels are the product of a partnership between Berd and We Are One Composites to deliver spokes and rims made entirely in North America. We Are One is located in Kamloops British Columbia, Canada, and Berd is located in Hopkins, MN.
