BST Carbon Wheels – Maximum Performance, Minimum Mass
Looking for the most noticeable upgrade for your motorcycle? BST (Blackstone Tek) carbon wheels drastically reduce unsprung and rotating weight (up to approx. 40% compared to OEM)*. The result is immediately noticeable: quicker turning, sharper acceleration, shorter braking distances, and more stability at any speed – on the street and the track.
Why choose BST carbon wheels?
-
Lower unsprung weight → more grip, comfort, and feedback
-
Less gyroscopic mass → lively, predictable handling
-
High stiffness → precise tracking and braking stability
-
Consistent quality → developed for long-lasting, intensive use
-
OEM-friendly installation → compatible with original brake discs, tires, and (where applicable) sprocket carriers
Technology & materials
BST wheels are built with prepreg carbon and cured in an autoclave for maximum strength-to-weight ratio. Strategically applied aluminum hub parts ensure durability around bearings and mounting points. Many variants are TÜV-approved or available as TÜV versions (depending on the model). Each wheel undergoes strict quality checks for material integrity, balancing, and dimensions.
Designs: Rapid TEK & Star TEK
Rapid TEK features a modern Y-spoke design: aggressive and minimalist, optimized for low mass and high torsional stiffness. Star TEK is the star design with a timeless race look. Both platforms are developed according to the same structural principles – so you choose based on style, application, and model compatibility.
Finishes & configurations
-
Carbon weave: classic twill or forged (forged look)
-
Finish: glossy, satin, or matte (satin corresponds to the much-discussed “matte” OEM look)
-
Model-specific sets: front/rear wheel as a complete set, or per wheel (availability depends on model)
Availability of weave/finish is model-dependent. Use the filters (brand/model/year) to see what is available for your motorcycle.
What you’ll notice immediately on the road
-
Sharper turning and easier direction changes
-
More acceleration due to lower rotating mass
-
Shorter braking distances and more stability under hard braking
-
Smoother suspension action thanks to less unsprung weight
-
Exclusive appearance – carbon that looks as good as it performs
Installation & compatibility
BST sets are delivered as complete wheels with hub parts and are designed to work with OEM brake discs, tires, and – if applicable – the original sprocket carrier. Where necessary, we provide model-specific spacers, ABS rings, or hardware. Want certainty? Use the filters or request a quick model check – we verify fitment before shipping.
Maintenance & use
-
Tires: have them mounted on a machine with carbon-safe clamps; follow the tire pressures specified by BST
-
Balancing: static or dynamic according to the manual; use suitable weights
-
Cleaning: pH-neutral products, no aggressive solvents
FAQ (brief)
Are BST wheels street legal?
Many versions are TÜV-approved or available as TÜV versions; this depends on the model and set. Check the product page or ask us for confirmation.
Can I transfer my OEM brake discs and tires?
Yes, BST wheels are developed for OEM compatibility. Check the specifications per model (bolt pattern, disc thickness, spacers/ABS ring).
What is the difference between twill and forged carbon?
Twill has the classic weave pattern; forged shows a random “forged” pattern. The choice is mainly aesthetic; the structural build follows BST specifications.
Is there a warranty?
Yes, manufacturing defects are covered by warranty. Each set is inspected for fit and finish before delivery.
* Actual weight savings vary per model/set and configuration. Where applicable, TÜV/street approvals depend on model and country.
