BERD SPOKES
Berd spokes are made from an advanced polymer and have 12 times the strength-to-weight ratio of steel and floats on water. Berd spokes have an improved fatigue life over steel and are impervious to the elements. This is what makes Berd spokes the lightest, strongest, and most durable spokes ever invented.
These spokes have strong vibration-damping properties in combination with the special made Flex rims. This means that shock loads are not transmitted directly to your body.
More than 50% weight saving compared to the already light DT Revolution spokes and a unique combination of Ninefold carbon layup with Berd spokes provides a perfect mix between low weight, comfort and durability.
