The document describes the key features and specifications of the Total wheelset from Boyd Cycling. It discusses the advanced aerodynamic rim shapes, excellent crosswind handling, high temperature resins and braking performance. It also outlines the specifically designed hubs with oversized pawls for power transfer, wide flange spacing for stiffness, and sealed cartridge bearings for smooth rolling. The spokes are described as the most aero on the market with high fatigue rating. The wheels are hand built in-house in Greenville, SC to ensure high quality with calibrated tools and the same builder working on each wheel from start to finish.

1. The Total

2. Rims
• Advance Aero Shapes (even our 44mm depth is
more aero than a traditional V-shape 85mm rim)

3. Rims
• Advance Aero Shapes (the 90mm depth has
negative drag in crosswinds).

4. Rims
• Crosswind Handling – Rim shape and
relationship with tire make for excellent
crosswind handling.

5. Rims
•
•
•
•
High temperature resins
Great braking performance
Brake pads developed with the rims
3 depths to suit every type of riding

6. Hubs
• Designed and produced specifically for Boyd
Cycling

7. Hubs
• Four oversized pawls make for maximum
engagement power in a sprint or when climbing

8. Hubs
• Widest possible flange spacing makes for the
stiffest possible wheels
• Bearings are spaced out as far as possible on the
axle to add stability
• Pre-load fine tunes axle tightness and prolongs
the life of the bearings
• TPI sealed cartridge bearings roll smooth, last for
a long time, and are easily serviced.

9. Spokes
•
•
•
•
Most aero spoke on the market
Highest fatigue rating out of any spoke
Standard 14guage threading
Non-proprietary design makes for easy
service

10. Nipples
• Brass nipple prevents corrosion
• Stronger than an alloy nipple for easy
maintenance
• Self locking threads help keep your wheel true
• No harsh thread locking agents needed

11. Spoke Count
• All wheels offered with two spoke count
options
• Maximizes durability for larger riders
Ride the correct spoke
count for your weight,
riding style, and terrain.

12. Lacing Pattern
• 2X lacing on both sides of the rear wheel
makes for better transfer of torque.
• A radial spoke can not transfer torque so we
would never put one on a rear wheel.
• Front wheel has no torque applied to hub so
radial lacing is fine.

13. Lacing Pattern
Example of radial
lacing
This spoke cannot
transfer torque from
the hub to the rim.

14. Lacing Pattern
Example of 2X
lacing
This spoke pulls the
rim when torque is
applied to the hub.
• Faster
acceleration
• Stiffer wheel
• Stronger

15. Build Quality
• 100% Hand-built in-house in Greenville, SC
• All tools are calibrated multiple times per day

16. Build Quality
• Wheelbuilders only work on our wheels, not
dozens of separate brands.
• The same builder works from start to finish,
wheels are not built in an assembly line
fashion.
