When world-class carbon craftsmanship meets iconic American machining, the result is extraordinary. The pairing of Light Bicycle rims and Industry Nine hubs offers riders the ultimate canvas for self-expression. By pairing our meticulously hand-laid carbon rims with I9’s vibrant, anodized hub collection, we provide a wheel system that performs as beautifully as it looks.
