Velo Orange Wheels with Wolf Tooth Hubs
Custom Velo Orange Wheels on Wolf Tooth Hubs
Pick a Velo Orange rim we carry, put it on a Wolf Tooth hub, and we lace and true the wheel by hand in our Georgia shop.
Why build Velo Orange rims on Wolf Tooth hubs:
- Proven: Velo Orange publishes the spoke tension limits for its rims; Wolf Tooth drives through ENVE's 42mm INNERDRIVE steel ratchet
- Built to last: Wolf Tooth sells every hub part separately and sets bearing preload automatically
- Laced and trued by hand, one wheel at a time, in our Georgia shop
- In depth below: Orbital mountain

Mountain in depth
Velo Orange Orbital wheels on Wolf Tooth Mountain hubs
Our mountain pick from the Velo Orange and Wolf Tooth parts we build with. The Velo Orange Orbital is a hooked aluminum rim, 27mm inside, 19mm deep, about 447 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.3 to 2.6 inch tires. We lace it to Wolf Tooth Mountain hubs in 28 hole.
- The Orbital for big tires. A 27mm internal width supports 45mm to 2.5 inch tires, and Velo Orange says that lets you run lower pressures without tire squirm. It is disc only and comes in sizes from 20 inch to 32 inch.
- Engagement you can change. Wolf Tooth sells drive rings with 60, 80 and 100 teeth, which work out to 6, 4.5 and 3.6 degrees of travel before the hub picks up. Fewer teeth favor lower drag, more teeth favor quicker pickup, and the rings swap without special tools.

Why the pairing, specs and FAQ
Custom hand built Velo Orange wheels on Wolf Tooth 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 Velo Orange rims and Wolf Tooth hubs each bring
- A polished box section. The Voyager and Enterprise use a classic box section shape with a high polish, which suits a traditional bike.
- One rim for rim or disc brakes. The double wall Voyager is rated for both and takes 38mm to 2.4 inch tires, so a tourer or commuter does not have to commit to one brake type.
- Tubeless with a tire note. The Voyager is tubeless compatible, but its tight tolerances mean Velo Orange recommends folding bead tires only. The Enterprise is not tubeless, so it runs a tube.
- A 42mm steel ratchet. Wolf Tooth tried several drive systems and settled on ENVE's INNERDRIVE. It says the large ring diameter lowers the stress on each tooth, so the hub can run more teeth without giving up durability.
- Engagement you can change. Wolf Tooth sells drive rings with 60, 80 and 100 teeth, which work out to 6, 4.5 and 3.6 degrees of travel before the hub picks up. Fewer teeth favor lower drag, more teeth favor quicker pickup, and the rings swap without special tools.
- A low-drag 40T ring for road and gravel. Only the road and gravel hubs take the 40T PRO ring, at 9 degrees. Wolf Tooth reduces its diameter, mills out more material and fits a lighter spring to cut ratchet drag and weight.
Velo Orange and Wolf Tooth custom wheel questions
Which Wolf Tooth hub fits my Velo Orange rim?
The cards on this page start on the Wolf Tooth hub our customers build with each rim most often (Wolf Tooth Mountain). The builder lists every Wolf Tooth hub that fits your rim, in the drillings and brake types that match.
Do you build Velo Orange rims on other hubs?
Yes. See our Velo Orange custom wheel page for every hub that fits each Velo Orange rim, or our Wolf Tooth custom wheel page for every rim on a Wolf Tooth hub.
Can you build with a Wolf Tooth hub or Velo Orange 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.
