Frequently asked questions
Does the rim include the tubeless tape or valves?
The product package includes the main rim unit only. You will need to source your own tubeless tape, valves, and sealant to complete your tubeless setup. Race Face provides additional technical resources, such as an Installation Guide for Tubeless Ready Wheels, to assist you with the build process.
Is the rim compatible with tubeless tires?
Yes, the ARC Offset Rim is tubeless-ready. It features a reliable rim bead design specifically engineered to securely hold tubeless tire setups, ensuring a dependable seal for aggressive riding conditions.
Should I have these professionally assembled?
Yes, while the ARC Offset Rim is designed for high-performance builds, professional wheel building is recommended to ensure optimal results. Because of the asymmetrical rim profile, having an experienced builder tension the spokes will allow you to take full advantage of the rim’s superior stiffness and structural integrity.
Is this rim suitable for rough mountain trails?
Absolutely. Riders have put the ARC Offset Rim through challenging conditions, including:
- Hardtail trail riding: Helping to absorb rough terrain rather than beating the rider up.
- Freeride and Enduro: Withstanding big jumps, spins, and high-intensity racing.
- Longevity: Users report that the rims stay true and remain dent-free even after a year of heavy use on demanding courses.
Does the offset design simplify my wheel build?
Yes, the asymmetrical design shifts the nipple bed, which helps create more balanced spoke tension across the wheel. This not only makes the build process more efficient for your wheel builder but also results in a significantly stiffer and stronger wheel overall.
Does the warranty cover ride-related damage?
Yes, the ARC Offset Rim is backed by a comprehensive lifetime warranty that specifically includes coverage for crashes and other ride-related damage, giving you extra peace of mind for aggressive riding.
