Description
Introduction
NEXTIE is proud to introduce the Ripple 60GS — our super-wide carbon gravel rim engineered for competition-grade performance on the roughest terrain. This article covers its key innovations, material breakthroughs, and rigorous test results.
Ripple 60GS is a super-wide gravel rim with 35mm internal width, purpose-built for modern gravel and adventure riding. When riding, especially at high speed, the wavy lines on the surface of this rim can disrupt the air flow around the rim, thereby reducing wind resistance and increasing speed. At the same time, this is also the first time we apply Toray T1100 carbon fiber to manufacture gravel bike rims. Toray T1100 generally has a higher tensile strength than T800 or T1000 carbon fiber. The addition of T1100 carbon fiber material provides us with a foundation to further reduce the rim weight.
Core Innovations
1. Material Upgrade: Toray T1100 Aerospace Grade Carbon Fiber Added, Rim Gets Lighter.
Ripple 60GS pioneers the use of Toray T1100 aerospace-grade carbon fiber as its main structural material, making rim much stronger. This is the first time we apply Toray T1100 carbon fiber to manufacture gravel bike rims. As we know, Toray T1100 generally has a higher tensile strength than T800 or T1000 carbon fiber. The addition of T1100 carbon fiber material provides us with a foundation to further reduce the rim weight.

2. Rim Surface Spoiler and Aesthetic Improvement Design: Wavy Lines.
For the first time we apply a new appearance design to the gravel bike carbon fiber rim —— Ripple 60GS. When riding, especially at high speed, the wavy lines on the surface of this rim can disrupt the air flow around the rim, thereby reducing wind resistance and increasing speed.
3. Newest Layer-up Structure: All-wrapping Technology for Main Carbon Fiber Structure Make Rim Stronger.
All-wrapping Technology (AWT) for main carbon fiber structure applied on Ripple 60GS rim further improves the stability and stiffness. AWT ensures the integrity of the carbon fiber material, thereby ensuring the rim's stability and stiffness. AWT is also applied on our road bike rims of Alpha series and Ocean series, as well as gravel rims of Ripple series.
4. Highly Strict Technical Test Methods — 130J (UCI Test Standard).
We applied the UCI test conditions to test Ripple 60GS carbon rim. The impact test result was 130J, which is a high value for a gravel bike rim. This is much higher than the UCI's baseline strength requirement for bicycle rims. IMPACT TEST VIDEO.
This rim could be used for Gravel, Adventure, Bikepacking and Dirt riding. The tire size for this model of rim is recommended at 50 ~ 75mm Gravel. The tire pressure is recommended at 20 ~ 45psi Gravel.
