Boyd Jocassee Wheelset
“For those of us looking for larger tires (36mm+), the new Jocassee gives a wide rim platform for modern gravel tires. Boasting a 26mm internal width, the updated Jocassee goes to a shallower and lighter 25mm depth. This allows the rim weight to go from 460 grams per rim down to 338 grams in a 650b and 353 grams in a 700c.”

Boyd Pinnacle Hookless Wheelset
“With the Pinnacle Hookless, Boyd Cycling is proudly at the front of the Gravel Revolution. A 700c Carbon Wheel, The Pinnacle Hookless is competition ready, designed ideally for gravel and cyclocross tires between 32-42mm in width. This is designed to be a stiff and responsive wheelset. Because the Pinnacle is a disc-specific wheel, we’ve been able to shed a few grams at the rim itself, reducing rotating mass without compromising safety, and the wheel’s unique 2.8mm offset amplifies spoke balance under heavy load.”
Boyd CCC Alloy Wheelset
“The CCC is a gravel-specific wheelset built to take you far off the beaten path. The new light weight, durable alloy wheelset complements BOYD’s current carbon Pinnacle 700c and Jocassee 650b offering and promises adventure at an affordable price point.”
“The 6069 series alloy rim weighs in at 415 grams in a 700c size and 395 grams in the 650b. Built with the highly rated Quest Disc Brake hubs, the complete wheelset nets a scant 1515 grams for 700c set and 1475 grams for the 650b. Spoke count options are 24f/28r and 28f/32r built using Pillar Wing 20 spokes and external brass nipples.”
