Constructed from premium Japanese Toray T800 and T700 carbon fiber, these rims deliver an elite combination of stiffness and low weight that serious BMX competitors will immediately notice. Precision-drilled spoke holes ensure an optimal spoke path, reducing stress on both the spoke and nipple for a wheel that stays true and strong under race and trail conditions.
Rated to handle tire pressures up to 100 psi, the Outburst carbon rims are built to perform across a wide range of BMX riding styles and tire setups. Whether you're chasing podiums on the race track or pushing your limits at the park, these rims give you the confidence that your wheels can keep up. Available in multiple widths to suit your preferred tire size and riding style, these are the rims that elevate your build.

Why You'll Love It
For BMX riders who refuse to compromise, the Outburst Carbon Rim is the upgrade that makes every other component feel more capable. The use of Toray T800 and T700 carbon - the same materials trusted in aerospace and high-performance cycling - means you're getting a rim built to an exceptionally high standard. Precision engineering at the spoke holes ensures your wheel builds up strong and stays that way, even after hard landings and repeated race-day punishment. The wide range of available widths means you can dial in your build exactly the way you want it, whether you're on the gate at a UCI race or hitting the local park. These rims represent a serious investment in performance, and riders who make the switch consistently notice the difference in acceleration, handling, and overall ride quality. If you're ready to take your BMX build to the next level, Outburst carbon is the place to start.

FAQ
What is the difference between Toray T800 and T700 carbon fiber?
Toray T800 and T700 are both high-grade carbon fibers produced by Japan's Toray Industries. T800 has a higher tensile strength and modulus, making it stiffer and lighter, while T700 offers excellent durability and toughness. Using both in the Outburst rim allows the manufacturer to optimize the layup for the best combination of stiffness, strength, and impact resistance - giving you a rim that is both fast and resilient.
Which width should I choose for BMX racing?
Most traditional BMX racers run narrower tires and will find the 20x1-1/8" or 20x1-3/8" options the best fit. If you prefer a slightly more stable feel or run a wider race tire, the 20x1.50" is a popular all-around choice. The OS20 is designed for specific frame and class requirements, so check your bike's specs before selecting that option.
Are these rims compatible with V-brakes?
Carbon rims and V-brakes require specific brake pads designed for carbon braking surfaces. Outburst offers compatible V Brake Carbon Rim BMX Pads separately to ensure safe and effective braking on these rims. Using standard rubber pads on carbon rims is not recommended and can damage the rim surface.
These are listed as pre-order - when will they ship?
The Outburst BMX 20" Carbon Rims are currently available for pre-order. Shipping timelines may vary, so we recommend reaching out to us directly for the most up-to-date estimated arrival information. Pre-ordering ensures you secure your size before stock is available.
Can I build a complete wheel with these rims myself?
Yes - these rims are sold as individual components and can be laced to your hub of choice by a skilled wheel builder. For best results, especially with carbon rims, we recommend having your wheels built or at least inspected by an experienced BMX mechanic to ensure proper tension and spoke alignment.
