Nextie Wheels with Boyd Hubs

The ProWheelBuilder workshop

Custom Nextie Wheels on Boyd Hubs

Pick a Nextie rim we carry, put it on a Boyd hub, and we lace and true the wheel by hand in our Georgia shop.

Why build Nextie rims on Boyd hubs:

  • Proven: Nextie measures every rim and ships it with a card showing its flatness and roundness; Boyd's 36-tooth hubs engage every 5 degrees
  • Built to last: Boyd hubs change freehubs by hand and spin on Enduro ABEC-5 bearings; Nextie warranties its rims for up to five years, by edition
  • Laced and trued by hand, one wheel at a time, in our Georgia shop
  • In depth below: ARX-W 35 gravel · AM 40 mountain · CRX 33 road

Or pick one of the 49 ready-made pairs below: each opens our custom wheel builder with the Nextie rim and Boyd hub already chosen.

Gravel in depth

Nextie ARX-W 35 wheels on Boyd Quest hubs

Our gravel pick from the Nextie and Boyd parts we build with. The Nextie ARX-W 35 is a hooked carbon rim, 25mm inside, 35mm deep, about 350 grams in 700c, sized for about 35 to 50mm tires. We lace it to Boyd Quest hubs (front wheel) in 24 hole.

  • Test results in public. Nextie publishes lab figures for some rims, including stiffness tables and a spoke hole test. On the Ocean 45G it reports 300 kgf at the spoke holes with no cracks or deformation.
  • Centerlock rotors on the Quest. One central lockring holds the rotor instead of six small bolts. Boyd chose it because the rotor goes on faster and there are no bolts to torque one by one.

Mountain in depth

Nextie AM 40 wheels on Boyd Quest hubs

Our mountain pick from the Nextie and Boyd parts we build with. The Nextie AM 40 is a hookless carbon rim, 34mm inside, 32mm deep, about 475 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.4 to 2.8 inch tires. We lace it to Boyd Quest hubs in 28 hole.

  • Carbon and coverage that step up by edition. Standard rims are all T700 with a 2-year warranty, Premium adds T800 with 3 years, and Supreme adds fibers like T1000 with 5 years. Nextie says it tuned these mixes over rounds of testing for impact resistance.
  • Five degrees of engagement. The 85 Road and the Quest both turn on 36 teeth and engage every 5 degrees. That cuts the dead spot before the drive catches when you start pedaling again, such as coming out of a corner.

Road in depth

Nextie CRX 33 wheels on Boyd Quest hubs

Our road pick from the Nextie and Boyd parts we build with. The Nextie CRX 33 is a hooked carbon rim, 21mm inside, 33mm deep, about 335 grams in 700c, sized for about 28 to 38mm tires. We lace it to Boyd Quest hubs in 24/28 hole.

  • Tool-free changes. Quest end caps and freehub bodies swap by hand, and the 85 Road offers tool-free service with a swappable freehub. A new frame, axle standard or groupset does not have to mean a new hub.

More about Nextie and Boyd wheels

Why the pairing, specs and FAQ

Custom hand built Nextie wheels on Boyd 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 Nextie rims and Boyd hubs each bring

  • A measured card with each rim. Nextie attaches a card showing each rim's flatness and roundness, and holds Supreme to +/-0.15mm, Premium to +/-0.2mm and Standard to +/-0.25mm, not counting fat bike rims. Nextie says the tighter numbers make a wheel easier to tune as it comes up to tension.
  • A separate mold for the spoke bed. On Premium and Supreme rims, Nextie forms the spoke bed wall in its own mold. The channel comes out flatter, the wall is the same thickness at every spoke hole, and Nextie says the carbon loop around each hole is kept from shifting.
  • Carbon and coverage that step up by edition. Standard rims are all T700 with a 2-year warranty, Premium adds T800 with 3 years, and Supreme adds fibers like T1000 with 5 years. Nextie says it tuned these mixes over rounds of testing for impact resistance.
  • Five degrees of engagement. The 85 Road and the Quest both turn on 36 teeth and engage every 5 degrees. That cuts the dead spot before the drive catches when you start pedaling again, such as coming out of a corner.
  • Three pawls at a time on the Quest. The Quest has six pawls working in two sets of three on its 36-tooth ring, so three pawls carry the load at each engagement.
  • Tool-free changes. Quest end caps and freehub bodies swap by hand, and the 85 Road offers tool-free service with a swappable freehub. A new frame, axle standard or groupset does not have to mean a new hub.

Check before you order

  • Tires. The ARX-W 35, ARX-W 45, ARX-W 65, Alpha 45G, Alpha 50, Alpha 55G, CGX 35, CGX 45, CGX 60, CRX 33, CRX 45, CRX 55, CRX 70, CRX-W 45, CRX-W 60, Ocean 45G, RX 35, RX 40, RX 45, RX 50, RX 60, Ripple 40 and Ripple 50 are hooked; every other Nextie rim on this page is hookless, so choose a tire its maker rates for hookless rims.

Nextie and Boyd custom wheel questions

Which Boyd hub fits my Nextie rim?

The cards on this page start on the Boyd hub our customers build with each rim most often (Boyd Quest). The builder lists every Boyd hub that fits your rim, in the drillings and brake types that match.

Do you build Nextie rims on other hubs?

Yes. See our Nextie custom wheel page for every hub that fits each Nextie rim, or our Boyd custom wheel page for every rim on a Boyd hub.

Can you build with a Boyd hub or Nextie 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.
