The benefits of this design:

Need only remove outside locking ring to adjust weight
No need to remove the tire, saving time
Adjust weight by adding or subtracting 9/16" ball bearings
Just about any type of wheel weights (other than bearings) can be used
Ball bearings will always stay at the bottom of the wheel to keep center of gravity at its lowest point
Largest ball bearing 9/16" or smaller can be used
The key to this design using any type of ball bearings is to KEEP them below center line of the wheel; if above center line it will not work as intended. If you are above center line the bearings have a tendency to flop over the top and lose the benefit of keeping the center of gravity at its lowest point
This design doesn't add a lot of weight, but what weight is there keeps the center of gravity at its most useful point (low in the wheel)
If you find yourself highcentered, we found that if enough wheel speed can be generated you create an out of balanced condition, which could help remove you from being high centered
Each wheel weight 10.3 oz complete with 4 bearings

A set includes:

Four (4) Mayhem 2.2 Competition Double Phatty Rims in Machine Finish
Four (4) Traditional rings - your choice of color (red, blue, gold, black or machine finish)
Four (4) Competition 16 Rings - your choice of color (red, blue, gold, black or machine finish)
Sixteen (16) 9/16" dia steel ball bearings
128 stainless steel button head screws
Plus engraving (within reason) on any anodized color (machine finish would be hard to see).
Shipping included within the USA (outside of USA contact us for quote)

ready for shipping the 1st week in March. Pre-orders being accepted now. Lifetime replacement warranty, excluding anodize and hardward.

We will have more mid March - so place your order

I may have missed it, but how wide is the wheel? thanks

Mayhem Eng. · 02-19-2008, 11:06 AM

With rings mounted 1.535 (38.9mm) without rings it's 1.295 (32.8mm)
