Your Parts + Our Spokes = Dream Build
Custom Wheel Building
Make your wheels better than new by rebuilding your existing wheels with Berd spokes. Your wheels will lose 100–200 g of rotational weight, helping you accelerate faster and ascend easier.
Gold Medal Winning Spokes
With two Olympic gold medals, two Olympic bronze medals, and 50+ XC World Cup podiums in the last 2 seasons, Berd spokes are the most decorated MTB XC spokes in the world. Light, strong, vibration-damping. "If you're not riding Berd spokes for MTB, you're at a disadvantage."†
Features
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 your order number on the package when shipping. Ensure all loose components including tires, disc brake rotors, valves, tape, cassette, etc. are removed prior to shipping. Do not remove the 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.

Awesome as always , they are going on a Nate Zukus Ti gravel bike I plan to always have
These were my 3rd sets of wheels relaced by Berd. The weight reduction is noticeable during spin up. They relaced 2 sets of Bontrager KOVEE XX, XC wheels, and a set of Zipp 303 Firecrest wheels that I use for cross. The added vertical compliance and small bump damping on the Zipps will be great for Cross! Love them all! I will be sending a second set of the 303's to complete my wheel/tire quiver for Cross this season. Thanks for a easy and seamless process from the order to shipping!
The best an more useful component i have in my bike it makes the ride 100 times better for me, thank you guys.
This is my 4th or 5th set of Berd spiked rims and I wouldn’t keep coming back unless the wheels were properly built and the spokes made a difference in the ride of the bike.
They're fantastic!
