The 650b trend is no longer confined to trail/enduro long travel bikes. More and more riders are moving to this wheelsize for gravel bikes and pure XC riding and racing, and that's what this rim is designed for. Internally called the "no holds barred" rim, this rim is the result of almost a year of R&D efforts to push the limits of weight, stiffness and durability available in a carbon rim. What our engineers came up with delivers an abundance of lateral stiffness, our trademarked asymmetric design, a generous 23mm inner width and a continued refinement of our Rockguard Hookless bead designed to provide best in the industry durability to rock strikes or other direct rim impacts. In short, if you are looking for speed on a 650b, this is the best upgrade you can make for your bike.
We offer the Skyline 275 as a single rim or a complete wheelset. Our wheelsets are handbuilt right here in Tennessee using only the best components; Sapim CX-Ray bladed or double butted spokes and DT Swiss alloy Pro Lock nipples. Hub choices include Chris King, Industry Nine, Hope, DT Swiss, White Industries and Project 321. To see a comparison of all our hubs check out the hub comparison chart. Wheel builds come with our TPP tape and tubeless valves installed. Any cancelled complete wheelset orders are subject to a cancellation fee as high as 20% depending on if the wheel has been built. Custom wheel builds take 4 weeks or more depending upon hub availability.

"One of my new wheels wouldn't seal up. Turns out there is a pin hole in the rim tape. Nox communicated with me over email on a Sunday and is shipping a roll of a tape asap. That's how you service customers! Never change." -F. Murphy
