Make your wheels better than new by rebuilding your existing wheels with Berd spokes. Your wheels will lose 100 – 200 g of rotational weight, which will help you accelerate faster and ascend easier. You will ride with ease over rough terrain with 200% better vibration damping than steel spokes.

• Significantly less expensive than buying new wheels
• Also applies to new hubs and rims
• Current lead time for most wheelsets: 3-4 weeks from the time that parts arrive at Berd
• Current lead time for 24" and smaller wheelsets: Up to 12 weeks from the time that parts arrive at Berd


Options:

• Choose what to (re)build:  wheelset or single wheel 
• Choose the number of total spokes for your wheelset (44, 48, 52, 56, 60, or 64) or single wheel (20, 24, 28, 32, 36)
• Choose spoke color: white or black
• Default spoke nipples are Sapim's aluminum 16mm Double Square Polyax with Secure Lock in black


- Shipping: Find a box and pay for shipping your wheels, hubs, or rims to Berd. Please indicate order number on package when shipping. Ensure all loose components including tires, disc brake rotors, valves, tape, cassette, etc. are removed prior to shipping. Do not remove freehub body or end caps from the hubs, as these are necessary for proper wheel building.

Disclaimers:

  • Hubs that are not J-bend or standard tangential straight pull must be pre-approved by Berd prior to sending.
  • All rims must have access holes (centered over spoke holes) that allow tensioning from the tire side of the rim.
  • We are unable to rebuild many "system" wheelsets with proprietary spoke/hub/rim systems, along with all wheels that use radially laced, straight pull hubs.
  • Some rims are front and/or rear specific. Please notify us of these situations before the build is started to ensure that the wheels are built correctly.
  • Some hubs require modifying the hub flange, which may void the warranty of your hub manufacturer.
  • Please contact us with any questions about these situations or if you need something that  is not listed.
  • On single wall or shallow rims, the spokes & nipples have a chance of protruding into the rim bed, which can lead to tire/tube failure. Please ensure that there is proper clearance between the rim bed and spoke bed before ordering.

Backed by Berd's 5-Year Limited Warranty

TECHNOLOGY
Berd spokes are made from an advanced polymer called ultra high molecular weight polyethylene that has 12 times the strength-to-weight ratio of steel and floats on water. It also has a significantly improved fatigue life and is impervious to the elements.

64 ro 60

I wanted a two wheel 64 spoke set up.
After sending in my rims and hubs I was told that Berd would not build a front wheel with one side radially laced. (Which is stated in the website.)
I mailed in a 28hole rim and hub. I was charged for 64 spokes but recieved 60. It would have been nice to have been sent 4 replacement spokes. I was not sent spokes or refunded for four spokes.

Gravel Wheel Perfection!

I sent a set Industry Nine Solix hubs and a set of Trek Paradigm carbon rims up to Berd. Approximately 3 weeks later I received super sweet wheel set back. 1200 grams of goodness. The Berd spokes really make a difference in both weight and ride comfort. 5 stars!

3rd set of wheels with Berd spokes!

I just got my 3rd set of wheels built with Berd spokes and I can’t see myself using a different spoke on my next set of wheels. Thanks Berd!

The Juice is Worth the Squeeze!

After hearing some local MTB friends talk about the amazing ride quality of BERD spokes, I had my Ibis Carbon rims re-laced with these lightweight white Dyneema beauties. Saving 150 grams of rotational weight is awesome, but the compliant ride is really what impresses me most. At 140 pounds, I often feel beat up when riding carbon wheels with traditional steel spokes over Midwest rocks and roots. BERD spokes have transformed my wheels, offering a smooth glide over the harshest of conditions. I’m not getting any younger, so I appreciate the added comfort BERD spokes provide, allowing me to ride harder and longer without the wrist and hand fatigue that often comes from repeated blunt force impacts while shredding summer singletrack. If you want to transform your off-road riding experience, look no further than BERD spoke technology!
