Pro-Lite Wheels
Who said it is impossible to produce a carbon disc wheel in Asia? Pro-Lite pioneered the latest in carbon disc wheels and has the left the competition reeling in its wake. Having spent huge amount of money and time working with the like of AGFA and 3M we have produced the strongest and fastest carbon disc wheel in the world. To prove you can see a video of our CEO jumping up and down on it trying to break it, there is no other wheel in the world that can withstand that amount of punishment.
All our wheels are hand built without the use of a single machine. We do things the hard way at Pro-Lite right down to soaking the nipples in oil for 2 weeks before we build the wheels. Each spoke is checked 6 times for tension during the building process and so strict is our QC control we reject around 40% of our wheels after final truing for being more than 0.05mm out of true.
All our gauges used for tension checking and truing are re-calibrated twice a day with a computer controlled checking system. Each batch of spokes is QC checked for strength prior to building using our own testing machine to show that our spokes are 30% stronger than any others on the market.
In our factory last year we hand built close to 70 000 pairs of wheels and due to the demand we have encountered, we are now adding extra work stations to increase the capacity to 110 000 pairs.
Don’t be fooled by dubious words describing the virtues of some brands products and especially the rubbish they talk about wind tunnel testing. If a wheel is not built correctly in the first place it does not matter how aerodynamic it is, if it breaks due to poor workmanship then your race is lost.
In the near future we will be using the skills of Formula 1 aerodynamicist Simon Smart with further develop our products as well as explaining to you in very easy to understand terms the aerodynamic benefits of our products and will dispel the myths other brands use to baffle you.
