Boyd Wheels with White Industries Hubs
Custom Boyd Wheels on White Industries Hubs
Pick a Boyd rim we carry, put it on a White Industries hub, and we lace and true the wheel by hand in our Georgia shop.
Why build Boyd rims on White Industries hubs:
- American made and matched: Boyd rims from Boyd's own South Carolina plants on White Industries hubs machined, assembled and inspected in Petaluma, California
- Offset spoke beds on Boyd's Podium disc rims even out rear spoke tension, so the wheel stays true longer
- White Industries stocks parts for older hubs and gives a five-year warranty
- More than 100 Boyd wheels on White Industries hubs in our build records since 2009
- In depth below: GVL gravel · Altamont road and gravel · Bracken mountain · 44 Carbon road

Gravel in depth
Boyd GVL gravel wheels on White Industries CLD hubs
The Boyd gravel rim we build most often, on White Industries' Centerlock hub. The GVL is 25mm inside, 30mm outside and 24mm deep, tubeless-ready, for 32 to 60mm tires, about 520 grams in 700c and 505 in 650b.
- Support in hard corners. Boyd shaped the GVL to hold the tire sidewall through hard cornering.
- A light Centerlock hub. White Industries' CLD rear is about 280 grams, machined in Petaluma, California, and converts between 10x135 quick release and 12x142 thru-axle; the front between 5x100, 12x100 and 15x100.
- Three pawls, 48 points. Three heat-treated steel pawls catch a 48-tooth steel drive ring threaded into the shell, so the hub picks up every 7.5 degrees, on a 6/4 titanium freehub.

Boyd Altamont wheels on White Industries CLD hubs
Boyd's alloy disc road rim on White Industries' Centerlock hub. The Altamont is 21mm inside, welded, tubeless-ready and about 420 grams, for 25mm road to 40mm gravel tires.
- A 2.8mm offset bed. The spoke holes sit 2.8mm off center, narrowing the gap between drive- and non-drive-side tension so a rear wheel stays true longer.
- Any drivetrain, 13-speed Ekar too. Freehub bodies for Shimano Hyperglide 8 to 12 speed, Micro Spline, SRAM XD/XDR and Campagnolo, including 13-speed Ekar.
- Built to be rebuilt. Bearing preload is adjustable, White Industries says the freehub and axle need no special tools, and it stocks parts for hubs it made decades ago.

Mountain in depth
Boyd Bracken wheels on White Industries XMR hubs
Boyd's shallow alloy trail rim on White Industries' 6-bolt mountain hub. The Bracken is 30mm inside, 34mm outside and 19mm deep, tubeless-ready, about 490 grams in 29 inch, for 2.2 to 2.6 inch tires.
- Offset for even tension. A 3mm offset spoke bed evens tension across the wheel.
- Boost or standard. Build the XMR+ Boost (15x110 front, 12x148 rear) for a modern trail bike, or the XMR, which swaps between 9x100, 12x100 and 15x100 front and 10x135 or 12x142 rear.
- Four bearings in the rear. Two Enduro bearings in the shell and two in the titanium freehub.
- Built to be rebuilt. Bearing preload is adjustable, White Industries says the freehub and axle need no special tools, and it stocks parts for hubs it made decades ago.

Road in depth
Boyd 44 Carbon wheels on White Industries T11 hubs
Boyd's 44mm carbon rim-brake rim on White Industries' light road hub, one of our most-built Boyd and White Industries pairs. It is one of the few deep carbon rim-brake rims still made, with a wide, hooked, tubeless-ready bed.
- 44mm deep. Boyd chose the depth to balance aero, weight and crosswind stability.
- A carbon brake track. It runs the carbon-specific pads we supply with the wheel.
- A light rim-brake hub. The T11 is about 92 grams front and 248 grams rear, quick release: 9x100mm front, 10x130mm or 10x135mm rear.
- Three pawls, 48 points. Three heat-treated steel pawls catch a 48-tooth steel drive ring threaded into the shell, so the hub picks up every 7.5 degrees, on a 6/4 titanium freehub.

Questions about these builds
Which White Industries hub should I put under a Boyd rim?
Match the brake and the bike. The Boyd 44 Carbon is a rim-brake rim: build it on the T11 (92 and 248 grams). Boyd's alloy disc rims go on the CLD for Centerlock rotors or the XMR for 6-bolt; for a Boost mountain bike, the XMR+ Boost. All use the same 48-point titanium freehub.
GVL or Altamont for gravel?
The Altamont is 21mm inside for 25mm road to 40mm gravel tires, about 420 grams. The GVL is 25mm inside for 32 to 60mm tires, about 520 grams in 700c: the one for bigger tires and rougher roads.

Why the pairing, specs and FAQ
Custom hand built Boyd wheels on White Industries hubs
Our order records show more than 100 Boyd wheels laced to White Industries hubs since 2009. We lace each wheel by hand in our Georgia shop: tensioned evenly, trued flat and round, and stress-relieved before it ships. Spoke lengths are calculated from the measured dimensions of your exact rim and hub.
What Boyd rims and White Industries hubs each bring
- Boyd makes its own rims. Boyd opened Olive Manufacturing Group in 2022 to make aluminum rims, in a Greenville, South Carolina facility. In 2024 it bought German maker Munich Composites and moved the equipment to Landrum, South Carolina, where carbon rim production began in 2025.
- Offset rim beds. On Podium disc rims, the nipples sit away from the rim's center, which widens the drive-side bracing angle. Boyd says non-drive spokes then run at about 65 to 70 percent of drive-side tension, up from 50 to 55 percent, and that steadier tension means fewer loose nipples and broken spokes.
- Hooked for road, hookless for dirt. Boyd keeps a hook on road rims, because a pothole can spike the pressure in a small, hard tire and the hook holds the bead. On carbon gravel and mountain rims, which run at low pressure, it drops the hook to allow a wider rim without extra material.
- Titanium freehub bodies. The T11, CLD, XMR and MI5 rear hubs use a 6/4 titanium freehub body. On the CLD, XMR and MI5, two of the four Enduro cartridge bearings sit in the freehub and two in the 6061-T6 aluminum shell, which White Industries says gives smooth rolling and long life.
- Three pawls and a threaded drive ring. Three heat-treated steel pawls on stainless steel leaf springs catch a 48-tooth steel drive ring threaded into the hub shell, for 48 points of engagement, or 7.5 degrees. White Industries says the whole hub is easy to service and rebuild.
- A design with a long record. These hubs descend from the Ti Cassette rear hub of 1992, which White Industries says was the lightest on the market at the time. It says that cassette hub design has stayed basically unchanged for 30 years.
Check before you order
- Tires. The 44 Carbon, Altamont, CCC, 36 Road Carbon, Rouleur, 55 Carbon, GVL and Reiver Carbon are hooked; every other Boyd rim on this page is hookless, so choose a tire its maker rates for hookless rims.
Boyd and White Industries custom wheel questions
Which White Industries hub fits my Boyd rim?
The cards on this page start on the White Industries hub our customers build with each rim most often (White Industries T11, White Industries CLD). The builder lists every White Industries hub that fits your rim, in the drillings and brake types that match.
Do you build Boyd rims on other hubs?
Yes. See our Boyd custom wheel page for every hub that fits each Boyd rim, or our White Industries custom wheel page for every rim on a White Industries hub.
Can you build with a White Industries hub or Boyd rim I already own?
Yes. Choose the supply-your-own option in the configurator, ship it to us, and we will lace it into a new wheel with new spokes cut to the right length. You pay for the parts you need and the build labor.
How long will my wheel take?
Build time comes down to parts availability rather than bench time. Your estimated ship date is shown in the configurator before you check out, so you know the date before you pay.
Not sure what to pick? Email info@prowheelbuilder.com (fastest) or leave a voicemail on 470-253-0929. You will be talking to the people who build the wheels.
