About the product

Aerodynamically optimised rim

For undulating to mountainous time trials and bike splits

Made in Germany' rim

Individually configurable

After years of cooperation with Munich Composites, we decided to take the next step in 2020: To further expand our Superlight MiG series, an own rim mould with an exclusive shape should round off our range. Our many years of know-how and practical experience as well as Munich Composites' expertise in the production of CFRP components have been incorporated into the development.

After numerous further developments and tests, we are now pleased to be able to produce our Superlight MiG 78 in series. With this addition to the Superlight MiG series, we can offer another disc wheelset that is completely "Made in Germany". With the 78 mm high, aerodynamically optimised rim, the wheelset is perfectly suited for undulating to mountainous triathlon courses and time trials. The low weight ensures agility in technical sections and on the mountain.

Like the other wheels from the series, the Superlight MiG 78 wheels are characterised by selected components and high production quality. The rims are tubeless-ready designed and we recommend tyres with a width of up to 30 mm.

Many years of practical knowledge meets expertise in CFRP component development

The technology behind the Superlight MiG 78

Rim

The Superlight MiG rims are produced near Munich using a patented process and are characterised by their low weight and high stability and pressure resistance. The basis of the production is the braiding technology, which in combination with the resin injection process enables an agile and light rim. The 78 mm high rim is finished with a clear lacquer, which makes the otherwise dominant carbon structure recede a little into the background. The weight of the rim is 590 g in both disc brake and rim brake versions.

Hubs

NEWMEN Fade straightpull hub for disc brake

The German-made Newmen Fade Road Disc straightpull hub impresses with a quiet freewheel and improved reliability in the usual Newmen quality. In the revised Fade model, three pawls now work instead of two toothed discs, which ensure a large-area and thus gentle power transmission. The hub also offers more safety thanks to more material at the neuralgic points. The total weight of the hub set for disc brakes is 306g.

The oversized bearings and axles ensure precise riding characteristics and durability of the hub. The front hub bearing is double sealed and the rear bearing is quad sealed. The patented 6-pawl freewheel allows direct power flow and easy maintenance. The total weight of the hub set for rim brakes is 272g.

DT Swiss AeroLite spoke

The spoke from the Swiss wheel experts shines with its lightness and aerodynamics. It is the lightest flat spoke in the DT Swiss range with high stability and at the same time very good aerodynamic characteristics. The centre section, butted to a light 1.5 mm in a cold forging process, is forged flat in a further process. This process again increases the strength of the material and creates the flat shape.
