Hard Anodized Wheels
The Hazard Cassette wheelset has only come with black hubs/spokes and a chrome rim, until now. An all black wheel? No, we are not the first, but we wouldn't offer a built wheel with anything less than the best we can do, for a price you can afford. With the vast improvment in braking and wear of the Hard Anodized rim vs. regular black anodize, we are now able to offer an All Black wheel we can be stand behind.
2005 Hazard Cassette wheel set is the 2005 hub, which is improved over last years model and all the poser hubs out there, with either Chrome or Hard Black Hazard Lite rims. You can't buy a better built wheel (or find as good a price for that matter).
These wheels will start shipping soon, so contact your favorite shop or mailorder in case you want one.
Posted by Jim B at May 5, 2005 06:00 PMDo they have G-Sport spokes or are they just cheap Primo-ish spokes?
Posted by: Aleks at May 5, 2005 06:04 PMDude, thats sick, major props
Posted by: Nick at May 5, 2005 07:12 PMVery nice.
When will the G-sport range be available through your distros? Specificaly in Australia.
Cool wheels! to bad I have the hazard lites already props though Odyssey blows the competition out of the water!! Hard wheels rule!!!
Posted by: BIKER ON ODYSSEY at May 5, 2005 09:57 PMwhen will you guys be making complete wheels with the g sport hubs?
Posted by: paul at May 5, 2005 10:22 PMis the finish gonna be duralectra or some other kind of anodizing process?
Posted by: courtney at May 5, 2005 11:17 PMOdyssey doesn't use generic Primo spokes. They are not DT quality, but they're not generic either.
Posted by: Ben at May 6, 2005 12:31 AMHey Jim or Nuno, when will Albes get theirs hard anodized wheels because I just ordered a bike and I thought I was going to have to settle for a chrome back wheel, they wont fill it till at least monday so mght Ables get it in some time next week?
Thanks,
p.s. i will have odyssey vandero wheel,05 cassette wheel, race fork,civillian bars, elemnetary stem, dirtpath & path tires, banton grips, 41 thermal cranks, vermont sprocket, liner cable, evolver brakes, and a monolever small, all on a fit s2i press-fit frame.
So there is a hard anodized hazard lite?? That is sick...when wioll it be available for individual sale??
Posted by: mark at May 6, 2005 08:36 AMIs there a warrantee on them duralectra rims ? i bought a custom wheelset from albes with the duralectra rims and the back rim's anodize came off within the first month. I been riding it for 4 months ,it still brakes good. But the purpose of the rim was to stay back(not forever, but at least longer than a month), . I'm a big fan of the odyssey brand, thats all i buy prety much , but i'm really dissapointed with the rim. Not mensioning i spend 170$ for 2 of them.
Posted by: Dave Campo at May 6, 2005 09:10 AMChris- I think G-Sport Stuff will be in oz in winter
Posted by: Mitch at May 6, 2005 10:09 AMThe spokes are not generic spokes, they are the same quality as the ones we have been offering in wheels for a few years.
Odyssey and GSPORT spokes sets are in the works right now.
The Hard Black Anodize is on all new Seven K-A, Midway and Hazard lites now. It is not Duralectra unless it says that specifically(only available as loose rims).
Dave Campo, if you think you have warranty issues, email nunoo@odysseybmx.com
Posted by: Jim at May 6, 2005 12:31 PMMr. Jim I must ask you why are you demolishing the weight of all your products. Why am I not able to find any Jim Beams anymore?
Posted by: FATGUY at May 6, 2005 12:59 PMI've been waiting for something like this to come out. Good job...
Posted by: pat ellis at May 6, 2005 01:00 PMIt was hard to see it go, but the Jim's Beam is gone.
It is over built for most applications, so we stopped making it. But that was very recently, there should still be some out there.
If you can make your bike lighter, while keeping it strong, it makes your riding more efficient, you can ride longer and have more fun.

Posted by: bradan at May 6, 2005 02:24 PMHey Fat Guy DANS COMP HAS THE JIMS BEAMS ON SALE SO STOCK UP!
Posted by: LOS FLY BIKES at May 6, 2005 03:00 PMYea odyssey is awesome, i just bought that flip flop hub that was on sale for 25$ like 2 weeks ago. i want to get a hazard lite chrome wheel but i cant afford it, they are really expensive and i dont have a job. I am only 15 and i am tryin everywhere to find one though. All i know is that ODYSSEY RULES!!!!
Posted by: Krany at May 6, 2005 03:26 PMsounds awesome
Posted by: fit ryder at May 7, 2005 01:23 AMHow much would you predict for Homers in Aus?
I just noticed the SKAVENGER site too.
Posted by: rob at May 7, 2005 09:46 AMor Marmosets in Canada
Posted by: dom at May 8, 2005 03:04 AMits just regular black rims on the wheelset. can u still get the back in chrome?
Posted by: jimbo at May 8, 2005 11:29 AMI wish they had that option when I bought my wheelset. cool look, but I want to see some blue and red and gold rims. Different anodize colors like they had in the eighties. I think it would be cool. especially gold. A black frame with black forks and bars, with gold components. It would look like an Old SE Trans Am. I think it would kick ass. Well, I did just get my income tax check, I think I am going to go looking for some stuff like that.
Posted by: Brad at May 8, 2005 12:12 PMwhen you said g sport stuff will be availiable in australia in winter did you mean your our winter (junish) or your winter (decemberish)
