Fatbikers itching to upgrade to carbon wheels just might hit the jackpot with the No.9 84w rim. Attacking the middle ground between our 70w and 100w rims, the 84mm internal rim width gets along nicely with 4?5? tires so riders can enjoy a wide, solid footprint. A reinforced, large radius rim wall edge adds strength and durability, while a narrower spoke grouping helps cut weight. With double-wall construction and a convex rim profile to shed snow, sand, and other soft surfaces, the 84w rim offers versatility for all-season riding.

The addition of the Whisky wheel set was the final touch of a parts update for a Cannondale FatCAAD2. A local shop did the wheel build, using a DT Swiss hub. Decided to go with a slightly lighter set up so added 4.0 Jumbo Jims and 4 oz of Stan’s sealant. Tires fit on with just a little lube and minimal use of tire levers. I like the profile and handling of the 4.0s on this width compared to the OEM SunRingle rims. And in my opinion the Whisky’s look much better!
