Derby Wheels with Velocity Hubs

Gravel in depth

Derby Carbon BX 25i wheels on Velocity Standard Atb hubs

Our gravel pick from the Derby and Velocity parts we build with. The Derby Carbon BX 25i is a hookless carbon rim, 25mm inside, 32.5mm deep, about 415 grams in 650b, sized for about 35 to 50mm tires. We lace it to Velocity Standard Atb hubs in 32 hole.

• Ridges that hold the bead. A retention ridge forms a channel for the tire bead, which Derby says secures tubed and tubeless tires and prevents burping. A deep center channel eases mounting, and Derby says tubeless tires air up with a floor pump.
• Extra sealing on the Race hubs. Velocity designed the Race line with cyclocross in mind and gave it improved double-bearing seals for added protection, which suits wheels that spend their lives in mud.

Derby Carbon DH 40i wheels on Velocity Race Centerlock hubs

Our mountain pick from the Derby and Velocity parts we build with. The Derby Carbon DH 40i is a hookless carbon rim, 39.5mm inside, 31mm deep, about 565 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.8 to 3.0 inch plus tires. We lace it to Velocity Race Centerlock hubs in 32 hole.

• The same shape in different layups. The 29 x 35i comes in a trail layup at about 515 grams with a 225 pound rider limit, and a downhill layup at about 630 grams with a 300 pound limit. You choose how much strength to carry for how you ride.
• Fronts made for radial lacing. Velocity designs its front hubs so they can be laced radially where the wheel allows it. It says radial spokes add lateral rigidity and save a little weight.
