Industry Nine Wheels with Velo Orange Hubs
Custom Industry Nine Wheels on Velo Orange Hubs
Pick an Industry Nine rim we carry, put it on a Velo Orange hub, and we lace and true the wheel by hand in our Georgia shop.
Why build Industry Nine rims on Velo Orange hubs:
- Proven: Industry Nine says its downhill and freeride athletes have proven the Grade 300
- Built to last: Velo Orange Chronos rears come apart with no tools, so a broken spoke on tour does not end the trip; Industry Nine gives its rims a hollow bead wall for impact resistance
- Laced and trued by hand, one wheel at a time, in our Georgia shop
- In depth below: Grade 300 Aluminum mountain

Mountain in depth
Industry Nine Grade 300 Aluminum wheels on Velo Orange Chronos Disc hubs
Our mountain pick from the Industry Nine and Velo Orange parts we build with. The Industry Nine Grade 300 Aluminum is a hookless aluminum rim, 30mm inside, 21.5mm deep, about 620 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.3 to 2.6 inch tires. We lace it to Velo Orange Chronos Disc hubs in 32 hole.
- A profile shaped to resist dents. Industry Nine gives the Grade 300 a proprietary profile meant to keep dents at bay and a bead shelf suited to tubeless tires. It says its downhill and freeride athletes have proven the rim.
- A ratchet in place of pawls. Chronos rears use a floating ratchet, which Velo Orange says gives good engagement and handles high torque loads. A 36-tooth ratchet is stock, and Velo Orange sells a 54-tooth replacement for more engagement on technical off-road riding.

Why the pairing, specs and FAQ
Custom hand built Industry Nine wheels on Velo Orange 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 Industry Nine rims and Velo Orange hubs each bring
- Hollow bead walls. The Sector and Triad are extruded from 6069 aluminum, and all three rims use a hollow bead wall, the part that takes the hit from a rock. Industry Nine says that adds pinch flat protection and impact resistance.
- A profile shaped to resist dents. Industry Nine gives the Grade 300 a proprietary profile meant to keep dents at bay and a bead shelf suited to tubeless tires. It says its downhill and freeride athletes have proven the rim.
- One rim for each kind of riding. The Sector is the trail rim at 28.5mm wide inside, the Triad is the enduro rim at 30mm, and the Grade 300 is the downhill and freeride rim at 30mm. All three stay close to 21mm deep, so the choice comes down to how hard you ride.
- A ratchet in place of pawls. Chronos rears use a floating ratchet, which Velo Orange says gives good engagement and handles high torque loads. A 36-tooth ratchet is stock, and Velo Orange sells a 54-tooth replacement for more engagement on technical off-road riding.
- Service with no tools. On the Chronos rears the end caps and freehub body come off by hand, so a broken drive side spoke on a long tour does not have to end the trip.
- High flanges that make room for big bearings. The 58mm flanges leave space for large sealed cartridge bearings. Velo Orange chose this layout for long tours and commuting through grit and rain.

Industry Nine and Velo Orange custom wheel questions
Which Velo Orange hub fits my Industry Nine rim?
The cards on this page start on the Velo Orange hub our customers build with each rim most often (Velo Orange Chronos Disc). The builder lists every Velo Orange hub that fits your rim, in the drillings and brake types that match.
Do you build Industry Nine rims on other hubs?
Yes. See our Industry Nine custom wheel page for every hub that fits each Industry Nine rim, or our Velo Orange custom wheel page for every rim on a Velo Orange hub.
Can you build with a Velo Orange hub or Industry Nine 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.
