BST - CARBON FIBER RIMS

Blackstone Tek (BST) is the world's premium manufacturer of carbon fiber motorcycle wheels. Carbon fiber wheels are the lightest and strongest wheels available. Installing BST wheels on your motorcycle is the single most effective modification you can perform.

What's so great about BST Carbon Fiber wheels?

BST wheels are 40-60% lighter than stock wheels and will reduce a bike's Moment of Inertia (ie. less energy is required to start or stop the bike) and reduce the gyroscopic effect of the wheels. Carbon fiber wheels are also stronger than traditional wheels. This means that:

  • Faster acceleration
  • Faster braking
  • Easier cornering and manueverability
  • Ultra-high tolerance to damage
  • Low corrosion susceptibility
  • A very cool 3D appearance
The lightest, stronger motorcycle wheel available

How light is a BST carbon fiber rim? A Suzuki GSXR 1000 2005-2006 front wheel is 5.8 lbs, the rear wheel is 8.8 lbs and the sprocket carrier is 2.0 lbs! To contrast, a set of forged aluminum rims can be over 24.0 lbs, nearly 8.0 lbs more!

Are BST Carbon Fiber wheels safe to use?

Despite the many internet myths, BST carbon fiber wheels are completely safe for the street or the track. Carbon fiber is an extremely robust material - even if you somehow succeed in damaging the wheel, the damage will not propogate while riding. To demonstrate the strength of a BST carbon fiber wheel, Race Applications Monaco (RAM) applied a 10,000 Newton stress test - that's enough energy to move 22,000 lbs about 3 ft. in a second. You can see from RAM's BST Stress Test results that the wheel was hardly damaged.
