Overview
The next generation of materials in the rim game
Lighter, stronger, made in America and 100% recyclable. The new Revel wheels just flipped the script. The same bike nerds who brought you Revel Bikes are proud to present Revel Wheels. These rims are made from the brand new Fusion-Fiber™ technology developed and manufactured in an aerospace facility in southern Utah.
There’s no environmentally harmful or brittle epoxy in this thermoplastic carbon- it is a toughened, high performance composite polymer that makes for a significantly more durable, lighter, and better riding wheel with a nice damped feel. Demo a set of RW30s today or read the reviews below and see for yourself.

Fusion-Fiber™ is the name for this technology, which encompasses the material and the process. And it's unlike any composite material the bicycle world has ever seen.

The wheels do seem to do a good job of damping trail chatter, especially at high speeds, and there is something unique about the way they ride compared to other carbon wheels that I've been on. Read more...
The RW30 rims shrug off impacts from roots and rocks quietly and confidentlyand don’t let out a stomach-turning clack that I’ve experienced with other carbon rims. After a solid year of riding with next to no maintenance, the rims continue to roll smoothly and dead straight, which is all you can really ask for. Read more...
They’ll give you that extra level of support and deft handling that everyone loves about carbon hoops, but without the harshness or loss of control that comes along with most. They’re compliant enough to really notice an improvement in ride quality and cornering control, but not so stiff that they’d knock me off line. That combination makes for the sensation of cornering like you’re on rails. Read more...
Bottom line: the material properties of Fusion-Fiber™, in concert with quieter Hydra hubs, make for a very quiet ride thus far. Read more...
