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.
  • If wheels are sent with metal spokes installed those spokes will be removed and disposed of. Metal spokes are not returned with the completed wheels.
  • 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.

Smooth process excellent customer service

I think this is my six or seventh wheel set. I've ordered ones directly from them. They've all performed really well. I've also had quite a few custom built and all of them have come out great zero issues my oldest I believe is four years old with no issues whatsoever, I have them on my Enduro bike all the way to my ultra lightweight cross country bike under 1000 g wheel set.

BMX experiment

The build now complete and riding and competing in the 6-year-old expert girls class. The first competition she won all 3 rounds and times were better than her old bike that being said she has a national event on the 13-15 of June in Rockford IL.

Not what I expected… They’re way better!

Berd replaced the steel spokes in my Enve wheels with Berd Spokes. Turn around time and workmanship were great. The ride difference was unexpected. First thing I noticed was how quiet the wheels were. The second thing I noticed was the ride felt like my tires were slightly under inflated when I would hit rocks and roots. There was a softness to the ride that was subtle and very enjoyable.

These are Great!!

Carbon hard tail plus Berd Spoke wheels are so perfect for flow trails, long gravel or even rougher trail days that I should likely ride the trail/enduro rig on.

All my bikes will have these in the future.
