Boyd Cycling Road Disc Carbon Front

The hooked rim design gives you significantly more freedom with tire selection and inflation pressures. Unlike hookless rims, which have strict compatibility requirements, this design ensures your tires stay securely seated, eliminating concerns about blowoffs.

While optimized for road disc bikes, the 36mm depth and 22mm internal width make it a capable all-rounder. It performs reliably on mixed terrains, though it is primarily designed for road and light all-road applications rather than dedicated gravel racing.

This wheel uses a Center Lock interface for disc brake rotors. You will need to ensure your rotors are compatible with the Center Lock standard rather than the 6-bolt mounting system.

This wheel is built for a 12mm thru-axle, which is the standard for almost all modern disc brake road bikes. If you are running a quick-release or a different axle diameter, you will need to verify if your frame is compatible or if adapters are available.

The 36mm depth is considered a shallow-to-mid profile, which is specifically chosen to minimize the surface area affected by crosswinds. You will find it much more stable and predictable in gusty conditions compared to deeper, aero-focused rims.
