Tailored built wheels to suit your riding
With our eyes on the future, these rims are the result of a clean-sheet design that brings our best thinking to the table on what a rim should be.
NOTE: The Picco rim is designed for with tubeless specific tires only and a minimum size of 28mm, they can be used with or without an inner tube.
700 x 28 max pressure 85psi (5.8bar)
700 x 30 max pressure 70psi (4.8bar)
NOTE: We have yet to find a floor pump with an accurate gauge, we use a digital gauge during testing and when setting up new tyres.
We recommend you allow a sliding scale for tire pressures. As a general rule, the wider the tire is (more air volume) the less air pressure you’ll need to achieve a fast but compliant ride. Experiment with tire size and air pressures to work out the best combination of volume and pressure for your intended terrain and overall riding style. Air pressure recommendations from the tire manufacturers are a good starting point but should not exceed 70psi for this rim.
The Picco features a hookless, tubeless-ready rim bed. As such, tires will require a firm grip to install but will go on by hand with the proper technique. Once installed, the bead should be snug on the rim. If you feel the tire is ‘too loose ‘do not use it and find another type or brand to obtain the proper interface between tire and rim for a safe fit and reliable seal. We are always available to give advice on tyres. Hookless rims are here for the future and have been around in automotive for decades. With testing on Forza C hookless, we have seen the carbon rim last much longer than the hooked version especially when abused offroad. At 85KG running 28psi in 700x42 gravel kings. I have been unable to damage the rim even when I have hit them extremely hard on rocks.
