BST Carbon Wheels

[Coop]

Any body no much about Carbon wheels ? how strong they are or how much HP they will handle, weight they will handle? I have a set on my RS Aprilia project bike but if it doesn't all come together l might put them on the ZRX, but l no nothing about them except they look great and are light as. Any idea's????????

I would imagine that they would be fine, been thinking about a set for my ZX10 track bike.
Read a bit about them, AMCN put a set on a big hp blade they did up a little while ago. heard stories that their stronger than OEM orginal's.
Try googling BST wheels, would prob give u the imfo.
There's a guy on this forum that has them on his ZX10 track bike. and their not shy on hp,

Sounds good thank's, could be the go then, they would look great on the REX........

Maxumis has them on his 12R, which is a heavy-arsed barge that puts out a crap-tonne of torque. I think many other 12 riders have used em, and I've never heard of one getting damaged via spirited riding... Extra care does need to be taken when changing tyres is all. (don't do it manually, use the proper machine)

I'll get a set one day for my 12R, after I get rich.

Ive only heard good things about them as well....... mmmm i gather u keep a close eye on them when ur getting ur tyres changed some shops just dont get it.. i allways take my wheels in, and fit them myself... i got a trust problem.....seen to many things happen.

Let us know how u go with them, when u get them fitted..
Im a little away yet for them... im chasing more HP first, lots more.. then some wheels,
