This missing link in your build might be something you never considered, your wheels. Slapping the Spank Spike 350 Vibrocore Boost XD Wheelset to the bottom of your ride is a quick way to shave some weight, add some comfort and maximize the already dialed frame and suspension under your feet. Made with a high quality, lightweight Dynamal alloy that features all new Vibrocore dampening technology. Hand built, in-house, the Spank Spike 350 Vibrocore Boost XD Wheelset combines meticulous quality control with passionate design to give you wheels that perform better, ride smoother and withstand more abuse.
Dynamal Alloy – Safe, affordable and responsible alternative to carbon fiber. Utilizing the endless lifecycle of aluminum, Spanks proprietary alloy blends offer superior mechanical properties resulting in stronger rims and reduced weight through optimized design. From rim extrusion, through to final product, each rim is passed through twelve quality control tests.
MGR (Micro Grain Refinement) Processed Alloys – Processes such as extrusion and tube drawing increases the strength of alloy materials by reducing the gran size, No other bars or rims are subjected to the number of drawing steps or level of refinement as those offered by SPANK.
Hand Built – Every SPANK wheelset is hand laced, trued, strained and tensioned by one of their experienced technicians, then signed off with exact build specification details. SPANK Hubs offer increased engagement, lighter weight, and improved adaptability.

Bead Bite™ (AntiBurp Tubeless) – Enhanced anti-burp and tire retention tubeless performance. Bead Bite™ rim technology, paired with SPANK's OoBah™ profiles, enhance tubeless use with tires of all types and with a greater range of air pressures. Bead Bite™ rims have six rows of ridges that run along the vertical and horizontal faces of the bead seats. These teeth create air seals between the rim and tire as the bead conforms into them under air pressure. Bead Bite™ rims allow much lower air pressures with reduced risk of pinch flats.
Vibrocore (Impulse & Fatigue Dampening Core) – Vibrocore reduces negative vibration and increases lateral stiffness & torsional strength. Vibrocore is a pressurized foam core that reduces the transmission of negative vibration and helps to balance radial compliance and torsional strength, delivering rigid, strong wheels with enhanced comfort and traction.
OoBah (Reverse Well Design) – Inverted tube well design for greater cross sectional design. Wider, lighter rims. The unique OoBah™ profile allows Spank to manufacture thinner walled, wider profiled, lighter rims without sacrificing strength or rigidity. Wider rims means stiffer wheels and more tire spread, leading to greater traction, improved comfort and tire performance. The "wave" shape of the OoBah™ inner tube adds strength and support to the vertical rim flange walls and prevents buckling. Normal straight or curved tube wells must be much thicker, and by default heavier, to offer the same support.
