kinesis wheels

The forging process used to create the Kinesis forged rim centers produces a radial grain structure in the same direction as operating stresses. After forging, the centers are heat treated, aged, C.N.C. machined, shot peened and hard anodized

All Kinesis wheels are made to order. This means that the center and both rim sections (available in half inch increments) are assembled to meet the exact requirements for your application. The centers are the highest quality available, built from 6061-T6 aircraft quality aluminum. They are spun by computer operated, numerically controlled machines over tooling mandrels specifically designed for each rim size. They are unsurpassed for trueness and consistency in thickness at all critical points

Each outer rim is polished to a brilliant chrome like finish. Each wheel is assembled with forty black nickel plated aircraft quality bolts which are installed and torqued by hand. Each wheel is then put on a test stand and checked for trueness before being sealed with high quality silicone.
