'Chaos Dirt Jump 26″ Wheels' has been added to your cart
View CartOptimised 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.
Chaos Dirt Jump Wheels are the World Championship winning, benchmark wheels for dirt jumping.
Used and loved world over by riders and endorsed by international professionals Sam Pilgrim and Matt Jones. Chaos Dirt Jump Wheels are at the pinnacle of the sport that stand up to the hardest of use.
These wheels utilise our tried and tested Chaos rim which offers tubeless compatibility where required, as well as a 22.5mm internal (28mm external) width. These widths have been optimised for strength in addition to tyre profiling.
The front wheel features the brakeless DJ Wideboy hub that offers wide spaced flanges for optimum lateral wheel strength.
