Our Philosophy

With our in-house developed Tailwind carbon rims, we go beyond where most manufacturers stop for the sake of cost reduction. Often, the most advanced carbon rim technologies are not readily available or are simply too expensive for mass production. With our innovative brand Tailwind, we now make these available to everyone. With Tailwind, we are able to offer customised solutions perfectly tailored to individual needs, with a clearly distinctive level of precision and quality.

Idea

The best overall package. We give new meaning to Keith Bontrager's famous adage ‘Strong, light, cheap - pick two’, thanks to an acclaimed, unrivalled weight-stiffness ratio, making our rims among the lightest on the market and at a fair price!

Design

Tailwind rims have been developed using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques, optimising each shape for minimal drag.
