Hard to beat the Original

A few months back we did a post on some of our stellar replacement rims: the Twin Hollow, Glider and Triple V. These are excellent choices for single-wall replacements to get you going that have the same precision and quality you expect from us.

But it's no secret or surprise that some of us are looking for a stronger and beefier option for a replacement. It's hard to beat the original and ours is the Aero rim. These rounded profile, double-wall rim handbuilt with our replacement hubs, 14g spokes make for a replacement wheelset that serves as another great option for riders who are looking for a s to get their commuter, cruiser, or spare bike going.

These are available in silver in a number of different replacement options:

- 27" in 32, 36 and 40 hole drillings
- 700c in just 32 and 36 hole drillings

Both can be built up on our replacement quick release hubs that are available in:

- Road [130mm spacing] in a 8/9 Cassette [Shimano] or Freewheel options
- Mountain [135mm spacing] in a 8/9 Cassette or freewheel options

Let's not forget that matching front wheels are also available. These wheels will sell for around $100 each at your local bike shop. If you're in the LA area, Orange 20 Bikes just ordered a few and will have them next week, stop in and check them out.

Replacement but not Replaceable.

When things are working right, you rarely hear any thing. When some thing goes wrong, you had better believe you had better be quick to fix it.

Flashbacks of my shop days are quickly flooding my mind, as spring approaches so do the tacoed rims on all sorts of makes and models. Your local bike shop knows the drill and are ready. Hopefully that day never come for you but if it does we have your back here at Velocity.

We offer plenty of different options to upgrade and customize your bike; but some times, you just want a quality rim or wheel that will take care of you but won't break the bank. Today, we're highlighting a few rims that often get overlooked, we consider them our replacement rims: the Twin Hollow, Glider and Triple V. These moderately priced rims are given the same attention to detail and quality you come to expect from all of our rims. Made from the same 6061-T6 series aluminum, these rims are also available as replacement wheel or wheelsets at your local bike shops.

The Glider is available in 700c and is ideal for hybrid bikes. The Twin Hollow comes in 700c and 27" to satisfy either need. Our 26" Triple V is an excellent way to get your mountain bike rolling again. As with any Velocity rim or Velocity built wheel, 100% customer satisfaction guaranteed!
