Nextie Supreme Alpha carbon wheelset
A complete wheelset built around the Supreme Alpha rim. Nextie laces a pair of Supreme Alpha rims to its own Rollingstar II Road or Rollingstar III Road hubs with Sapim spokes and black alloy nipples, in 3 sizes (45-55mm deep), tensions and trues both wheels in its Xiamen factory and ships the pair complete.
ProWheelBuilder is an independent wheel builder in Georgia and a Nextie dealer, not the manufacturer: we sell the wheelset and check your axle, freehub and size choices before the order goes in.
Building your pair
Every Nextie Supreme Alpha wheelset is sold as a front and rear pair, and the two wheels do not have to match. Pick the front depth and the rear depth separately: a shallower front for crosswinds with a deeper rear for speed is the common choice, and a matched pair is one click. The front is never deeper than the rear, so a deeper front with a shallower rear is not built. The rear follows the front until you choose a different one. Both wheels share the hub set, so they share the drilling; a depth that is not made in the drilling you picked is struck through.
Sizes, wheelset weights and prices
Wheelset weight is the complete pair as built: both rims, spokes, nipples and the hub set, from the lightest spoke and hub choice to the heaviest. Prices are for a matched pair on the least expensive hub; mixed front and rear pairs are priced from the two rims you choose.

The rim
The Alpha is the rim Nextie sends to the UCI lab. It is Nextie's Supreme edition at its most focused: a T800, T1100 and M46J layup, roundness and flatness within 0.15mm, and a five-year factory warranty.
Supreme is Nextie's top edition: a T800 and ultra-light T1000 carbon blend, the Advanced Single-Point independent spoke-bed mold, roundness and flatness held within 0.15mm, and a 5-year factory warranty - the lowest weight Nextie can reach with the highest impact resistance. Nextie holds UCI wheel approvals on its Supreme road and gravel rims. Nextie rates these rims for a maximum system weight of 158 to 166 kg (rider plus bike and gear). The Nextie Supreme Alpha rim page carries Nextie's published lab results, test videos and certificates in full.
Hubs, spokes and drive
Hub choices: Nextie Rollingstar II Road 12x100 / 12x142 24H, Centerlock rotor mount; Nextie Rollingstar III Road 12x100 / 12x142 24H, Centerlock rotor mount. The hub sets the drilling, 24H, and both wheels use the same set.
Spokes are Sapim: the round Race (2.0/1.8mm double-butted) for durability, or the bladed CX-Ray for less weight and drag, both with black alloy nipples. Freehub bodies: Shimano Road (HG), Shimano Micro Spline Road 12S, SRAM XDR, Campagnolo N3W 13S.
Finish: matte or glossy carbon. Decals: None, Glossy Black. Bead: Hooked or Hookless.

Ordering and lead time
Nextie builds each wheelset to order in Xiamen, so allow roughly two weeks for the build plus transit. The price at the top of the page is the complete wheelset as configured. Want a single wheel, a different hub, other spokes, or a wheel laced here in Georgia? Build it in the Custom Wheel Program, which opens with the Nextie Supreme Alpha rim already selected.
Warranty
Manufacturer's warranty. Nextie warrants this product against defects in materials and workmanship. The duration, conditions and claim process are set by Nextie and can change without notice, so ask us and we will confirm the current terms before you buy.
ProWheelBuilder. Because this wheelset comes assembled from its maker, the warranty that applies is theirs, set out above; ProWheelBuilder's one-year wheel warranty is for wheels we build here. Either way, a claim goes through us and we will manage it.
Full terms are on our Policies & Warranty page.
Nextie Supreme Alpha wheelset questions
Can I run a different depth front and rear on the Nextie Supreme Alpha wheelset?
Yes. Pick the front and rear size separately; the price is the two rims you chose plus the build, and a matched pair costs exactly what it always has. Both wheels share one drilling because they share the hub set.
Can I buy one Supreme Alpha wheel on its own?
Not from this page: the factory-built wheelset is sold as a pair. A single front or rear wheel on this rim can be built in the Custom Wheel Program.
Which hub should I choose?
Rollingstar II is the value choice; Rollingstar III is the lighter hub set, about 60 grams lighter for the pair. Each hub is drilled one way, so the drilling and the hub are chosen together.
Is ProWheelBuilder the manufacturer of the Nextie Supreme Alpha?
No. Nextie designs and manufactures the rims and hubs and builds this wheelset in Xiamen. ProWheelBuilder is an independent wheel builder in Georgia and a Nextie dealer: we sell it, check your choices before the order goes in and handle any warranty claim.
