Designed to completely eliminate trail chatter and arm fatigue, the Berd HAWK27 carbon mountain bike wheelset is a masterclass in compliance and weight reduction. This premium wheelset is the stunning result of an exclusive North American partnership, combining hand-tied Berd PolyLight spokes from Hopkins, Minnesota, with meticulously crafted carbon rims from We Are One Composites in Kamloops, British Columbia.
Weighing in at a remarkably light 1,394 grams (with Industry Nine hubs), the HAWK27 is optimized for modern cross-country and fast-paced trail riding. The rim utilizes a shallow 18mm profile engineered specifically for radial compliance, allowing the wheel to track smoothly over roots and rocks rather than bouncing off them. Paired with the legendary vibration-damping properties of Berd's UHMWPE spokes, the HAWK27 delivers a magic-carpet ride quality that traditional steel spokes simply cannot match.
Complete with a wide 3.75mm rim lip to prevent pinch flats, the Berd HAWK27 provides unmatched speed, comfort, and durability over the roughest terrain.
