Nextie Wheels with Shimano Hubs

Gravel in depth

Nextie CGX 35 wheels on Shimano 105 R7070 hubs

Our gravel pick from the Nextie and Shimano parts we build with. The Nextie CGX 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 Shimano 105 R7070 hubs in 32 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.
• Cup and cone on the road hubs. Shimano says this construction lets a mechanic fine-tune the bearing and stays smooth under cornering and sprint loads, and that Dura-Ace uses it on purpose. The 105 hubs add internal O-rings and a grease sleeve for durability.

Nextie AM 40 wheels on Shimano XT M8210 B hubs

Our mountain pick from the Nextie and Shimano 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 Shimano XT M8210 B hubs in 32 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.
• Quick engagement off the line. The XT and XTR rears engage within 3.5 degrees. Shimano says that helps you get moving quickly, while the seal design and smooth bearings mean less drag when you coast.
