The lightest 11T pulley/jocket wheels in the world? (8.78g/pair)

[jpeterson1012]

Just a little personal project for my sub-5, work in progress: these are alloy, laterally stiffer overall compared to the well-received 3-spoke aerozine PL1.0/1.2's, and lighter than the plastic Extralite ones. sealed ceramic bearings, 7075-T6 anodized pink to match the rest of my bike.

8.78g projected weight for the pair, sprockets+bearings+spacers.

Stay tuned if interested.

Note: there are two variants shown in the picture. One that I am confident will work but weighs slightly more (10g), and one that's an experimental variant that I'm about to put through the wringer on my commuter (8.78g).



Let's see if these generate enough interest to actually make it worthwhile to sell

sufficient quantity is required to get the cost down, say 100+ sets. but if enough people want to buy them, either for weight or customization, then yeah.

I’m interested. You mentioned the Extralite’s which I was about to go with but in no rush so holding off. Maybe not pink

The intent, since these are custom, is to have a variety of colors. My personal samples just shipped yesterday. Will keep yall posted on how they perform.

How’s the interest going? Up to 100 yet?

Nope, honestly I've been working on other projects recently and while not abandoned, this one hasn't really seen any updates or promotion. The prototypes are still going strong, no issues whatsoever so that's good.
