Stan's Flow MK4:
Since 2007, the Flow Rim has been helping riders progress, push boundaries, and do more on their bikes. The original Flow was light, wide, tubeless, and strong. It redefined mountain bike rims and played a role in the evolution of riding. Today's Flow MK4 continues with a 30mm wide asymmetric rim designed to build an even stronger overall wheel.
Durability and an almost uncanny feeling of control on the trail have made Flow rims the preferred choice of multiple Red Bull Rampage riders, and today’s Flow goes even further. The Flow MK4’s reinforced spoke bed, combined with the offset drilling of the asymmetric design, builds into an incredibly durable wheel that brings added confidence to every ride. Unlike many asymmetric rims, the Flow MK4's BST-Asymmetric shape is designed to equalize resistance to dents and tire bead retention on both sides of the rim under even the worst rock gardens and hardest cornering. Combined with Stan's patented Bead Socket Technology, the Flow MK4 rim offers the most straightforward tubeless setup and the most reliable airtight performance on the trail.
Ramp up your progression and make every ride even better with the confidence of Flow MK4 asymmetric rims.
Low-profile 30mm internal width optimizes tire shape, traction, and control for 2.3-2.6” tyres
Durable 6069 aluminium with a welded joint and reinforced spoke bed
The BST-Asymmetric design combines Stan’s legendary easy tubeless inflation with a more robust, more balanced wheel build
3-year rim warranty with 1-year crash replacement
Spokes :
Sapim Race - 2/1.8/2 - Race spokes are double-butted and are used for the strongest and stiffest wheel builds. Handles abrasion from trail debris. Weight (64 pcs x 260 mm) 363 g
Sapim D-Light - 2/1.65/2 - Light, strong, economical. The D-Lights are double-butted and are the best choice for most riders. Does not stretch and twist poorly like 2/1.5/2mm spokes. They are more elastic and lighter than Race spokes. Weight: (64 pcs x 260 mm) 307 g
Sapim CX-Ray - 2/2.3/0.9/2 - The lightest and most resilient mountain bike spokes available. CX Rays are bladed, so they have aerodynamic properties and the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. Strong enough for competitive use. Weight: (64 pcs x 260 mm) 272 g
Nipples:
DT Swiss EX511 rims are designed to work with particular-shaped DT Swiss nipples called Squorx, so we only use suitable ones to keep their warranty valid. These haveextended spoke head with spline fitting inside rim for increased strength and ease of truing with a unique tool
2.0mm Silver Alloy DT Swiss Squorx - These are supplied with the rims and are fine but are susceptible to corrosion.
2.0mm Black Alloy Dt Swiaa Squorx - a black anodised alloy version of the above - greatly improved long-term corrosion resistance. 2.0mm Black Brass DT Swiss Squorx Prolock - brass for ultimate strength and durability. Remember that brass doesn't take coatings well, so it can look worn after building due to surface contact with spoke keys.
Sapim Double Square Alloy - Our wheel builders favourite top-quality alloy nipple with excellent durability and increased head length for strength and ease of trueing. Removal of rounded or broken nipples is more straightforward, too, using an internal spoke head.
All wheels for Enduro and DH are built in 3 cross lacing patterns with 32 holes. Wheels for XC and Trail riding are built 3 Cross in 27.5" and 2 Cross in 29" for additional lateral stiffness; if you want a different pattern, please let us know in the comments section at checkout.
You will receive your wheels in our specially designed wheel box that will get them to you in perfect condition; they will be ready to ride straight from the box, so just fit your tyre discs and cassette. We can supply tyres, cassettes and rotors at great prices too.
