Mad Duck and Mad Fiber, combine that with your Mad Skills and you have a winner! Mad Duck is now a Mad Fiber dealer! You gotta get a pair! Super light, durable, aero and fast, never need truing, what more could would ask for?

How about the details:

• Instead of building the carbon rim to mimic the shape and properties of an extruded aluminum rim, Mad Fiber builds the rim by joining three separately constructed pieces (two sidewalls and the tire seat). The cool dudes at Mad Fiber say it’s lighter and stronger this way.
• Instead of drilling the rim to accommodate metal spokes, Mad Fiber bonds wide carbon spokes to both the rim walls and hub flanges. Again, this preserves the integrity of the rim and makes it stronger at a lower weight.
• To tension the wheel, the carbon spokes are assembled to length and fixed to the flanges at the hub center. Then a fixture precisely moves the flanges to their correct position on the hub shell before they’re affixed in place. Spreading the flanges with the spokes already attached to both the flanges and rim creates spoke tension.
• The wheels are handmade in Seattle (USA USA USA!!!) and carry no rider weight restrictions.

• Mad Fiber says they meet and exceed multiple fatigue and durability tests, including DIN and CEN standardized tests plus a battery of tests of their own invention. They carry a four-year warranty and crash replacement program. The titanium freehub body is made by White Industries and sports three-pawl/24-tooth engagement and a 15mm chromoly axle. Oh..the weight, did I forget that part? Lets talk about the depth first! 60mm from and 66mm rear..ok, now the weight.. 1085 grams per set! Wow!

• Available for Shimano, SRAM and Campy, with or without Ceramic Bearings, they ship with lightweight quick release skewers, cork brake pads, wheel bags, and valve extenders.
