Chromag Wheels with White Industries Hubs
Custom Chromag Wheels on White Industries Hubs
Pick a Chromag 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 Chromag rims on White Industries hubs:
- Made by specialists: White Industries hubs machined, assembled and inspected in Petaluma, California
- Proven: Chromag says the BA30 v2 takes 20 percent more impact than the original at the same weight; White Industries' cassette hub design has stayed basically unchanged since 1992
- Built to last: White Industries stocks parts for older hubs and gives a five-year warranty; Chromag welds and grinds the seam so the joint is the strongest part of the rim
- Laced and trued by hand, one wheel at a time, in our Georgia shop
- In depth below: BA30 V2 mountain

Mountain in depth
Chromag BA30 V2 wheels on White Industries CLD hubs
Our mountain pick from the Chromag and White Industries parts we build with. The Chromag BA30 V2 is a hooked aluminum rim, 30mm inside, 19mm deep, about 640 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.3 to 2.6 inch tires. We lace it to White Industries CLD hubs in 32 hole.
- A bead wall built for rock strikes. Chromag concentrates material in the bead wall, where impacts land, and rounds the outer edge to reduce tire damage under compression. The aim is better dent resistance and tire retention, and fewer pinch flats.
- 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.

Why the pairing, specs and FAQ
Custom hand built Chromag wheels on White Industries hubs
Every pair on this page is in our builder today, with a rim and hub that fit each other. 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 Chromag rims and White Industries hubs each bring
- A bead wall built for rock strikes. Chromag concentrates material in the bead wall, where impacts land, and rounds the outer edge to reduce tire damage under compression. The aim is better dent resistance and tire retention, and fewer pinch flats.
- A welded and ground seam. Both rims are fusion welded at the joint and then ground smooth, and Chromag says that makes the seam the strongest part of the rim. A full weld also keeps the joint airtight for tubeless.
- Nipple beds angled to the spoke. Chromag's oriented bed lines up each nipple seat with the angle of its spoke. Chromag says this reduces stress on the nipple and spoke, which makes for a stronger wheel.
- 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.
Chromag and White Industries custom wheel questions
Which White Industries hub fits my Chromag rim?
The cards on this page start on the White Industries hub our customers build with each rim most often (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 Chromag rims on other hubs?
Yes. See our Chromag custom wheel page for every hub that fits each Chromag 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 Chromag 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.
