Alienation Vandal Rim

The Vandal is built specifically for jump, park, and street riding. Its construction prioritizes durability and impact resistance, making it a reliable choice for riders who put their wheels through heavy abuse.

Yes, the Vandal features Alienation's TCS (Tubeless Compatible System), making it fully tubeless-ready right out of the box. This allows you to run lower tire pressures for better grip and pinch-flat protection.

The rim features a specialized coating designed to improve braking performance. It offers stopping power similar to chrome rims but without the extra weight or environmental concerns associated with traditional chrome plating.

The 4D drilling process optimizes the angle at which the spoke enters the rim. This reduces binding at the nipple and spoke interface, which helps prevent spoke breakage and creates a stronger, more reliable wheel build.

This rim is specifically engineered for 3-cross lacing. We recommend sticking to this pattern to ensure the structural integrity and longevity of your wheel build.

Yes, the welded joint construction is significantly stronger and more consistent than a pinned or sleeved joint. It creates a seamless, unified structure that is less likely to develop cracks or weak points under the stress of hard landings.
