Following the resounding success of our groundbreaking D32 series, we are proud to unveil the next evolution in our gravel-specific carbon rim lineup: the D35/36H series. While the D32 redefined aerodynamic efficiency for gravel racing, the new D35/36H series shifts focus towards maximizing tire compatibility, volume, and control for the modern gravel adventurer.

Recap: The foundation of speed (The D32 series)

Launched earlier this year, the D32 series represented a quantum leap in gravel technology. Specifically engineered for elite riders and performance enthusiasts chasing marginal gains, the D32 combined an innovative 32mm internal width with deep profiles ranging from 39mm to 64mm.

By minimizing erratic air movement at the rim-tire interface, the D32 series allows air to flow seamlessly over the tire and rim, delivering unparalleled aerodynamic advantages previously reserved for road cycling. Whether conquering high-stakes races in the Midwest or embarking on month-long backpacking adventures, the D32 proved that gravel riders no longer have to sacrifice speed for stability.

The next generation: control meets volume (The D35/36H Series)

As gravel cycling continues to evolve, so do tire technologies and rider demands. The new D35/36H series answers the call for higher volume and more versatile setups. We are introducing two distinct rim profiles—the Versatile Clincher (35mm) and the Modern Hookless (36mm)—designed to push the boundaries of what your gravel bike can handle.

1. The Versatile Clincher (35mm Internal, Hooked)

Designed for the purists and adventurers who demand maximum flexibility, the 35mm hooked version offers a secure bead seat for a wide range of tires. It provides a robust, reliable setup whether you are running high-pressure clinchers for racing or lower-pressure setups for rough terrain.

2. The Modern Hookless (36mm Internal, Hookless)

Optimized specifically for high-volume tubeless tires, the 36mm hookless profile ensures superior air retention and a smoother ride quality. By eliminating the hook, we improve impact resistance, making it the perfect choice for tackling the roughest, most technical terrain on the planet.

Tailored Performance

Both the D35 and D36H rims are currently available in 50mm and 60mm depths. This allows riders to fine-tune their setup:

50mm: Prioritize agile handling and low weight for steep climbs and technical courses.
60mm: Maximize aerodynamic efficiency and stability for high-speed racing and long-distance hauls.

From the aerodynamic precision of the D32 to the volume and versatility of the D35/36H, our mission remains the same: to provide the perfect balance of speed, stability, and durability. Upgrade your ride today and experience the future of gravel.
