Butted Race Spokes Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

Odyssey Race Spokes

Our new spokes use butting dimensions that are tailor-made for BMX racing, and they’re still strong enough to handle some light street riding too. You’ll save roughly an ounce per wheel on 36’s. Only the best stainless steel has been used, and the gradual butting transitions are ideal for the stresses that a 20″ wheel has to endure.

» Proprietary professional-grade stainless steel.
» BMX specific butting transition dimensions.
» 184, 186, 188, 192mm.
» Black or silver.

CHASE HAWK WHEELS ARE CUSTOM Friday, December 5th, 2008

Ever since we posted the “Custom” Chase Hawk wheels the other day, I have been getting calls/emails from people trying to order them as a stock option, which does not exist. Jim Bauer custom built them for Chase.

We know they look rad, but if you wish to run the “Chase Hawk” wheels, you will need to purchase the Hard Anodize Red Hazard lite rims, Red Vandero 2 hub and Red Odyssey after market spokes and have that hotness built up. All of which is available now.

Once you do, you will be stylin!!!!

M7 Wheel in Shops Thursday, April 20th, 2006

I am pretty excited because after 12 years the first wheel incorporating a G-Sport hub is finally in shops.

The M7 wheel is a stock front wheel, built to the highest possible standards. Based around the legendary Marmoset 36 hole front hub, into a proven Odyssey 7ka rim with Odyssey’s new top quality spokes.

Now you can get the same wheel that most of the Odyssey team use and love from any bike shop without the wait for a custom wheel build. You can also be sure that thanks to the custom box it will arrive safe and sound and will have used less of the world’s resources to get there.

Wheel Fiddling Sunday, January 1st, 2006

*This article first appeared in Ride UK (#91) and is reproduced here by kind permission of Ride UK.

This month I want to continue where I left off last time. If you remember I had just finished assembling the worlds most garish wheel, a lovely little rear 48, laced 4 cross and interlaced under the third. But there is a lot more to wheel building than just putting the parts together in the right order. Wheels are very simple, they may look a bit complex, but like all the best ideas they have been with us so long because they are simple and work. Unlike the Government (which seems to think that it makes more sense to continue to pour money into a disastrous policy of smashing apart the very building blocks of the universe to get energy rather than make a small effort to pioneer profitable technology to harvest some of the freely available energy around us in the waves, wind and sun) we can make the most of this simple technology by putting in just a little more effort.
