Built for Impact

Exceptional strength to survive the worst cases

Competition Proven

Tested by the best, the Chaos performs at the highest level

High Quality Materials

Fabricated from high-quality, heat-treated alloy, the Chaos rim blends light weight and high strength to come up with the best solution for freestyle riders. The rim undergoes a specialised welding process to ensure optimal strength and structural integrity. The rim is finished with a shot-peen finish, which improves overall strength and lifespan.

Optimised Rim for Dirt Jumping

The Chaos rim has been specially developed with a 22.5mm internal and 28mm external width. Halo found this to be ideal for Dirt Jump wheels. It allows tyres between 2″ to 2.5″ to seat optimally to the rim, which is the most common choice for Dirt Jumping.

Due to priority of reducing rolling resistance and lack of turning corners, dirt jumpers run higher pressures which do not require a wider rim for optimal sidewall interaction. Therefore, it made sense to keep the rim narrower and save on weight. Wider rims result in a greater weight penalty.

The Chaos found the right balance between weight and strength for Dirt Jumping

Wideboy Front Hubs

Dirt Jumpers don’t need front brakes, as slowing down is not usually the goal. With this in mind, we threw out the disc mount. This allows for as wide flanges as possible which improves the strength of the wheel by opening the angle between the centre of the rim and the spoke direction. Ultimately, this maximises the strength to weight ratio.

DJD Rear Hubs

As with the wideboy, wide spoke flanges are key to the strength of the DJD. On the rear though, the disc mount had to stay for emergency exits.

The DJD uses a bushed driver which reduces weight and improves durability over and above cartridge bearings, particularly when using compact sprocket sizes. Sealed main hub bearings help ensure longevity. At the core of the hub is a lightweight but strong hollow alloy axle.

We’ve created three different options, including two Supadrive options for instantaneous pick-up.
