UNIQUE - these wooden rims were used by professionals in races on the road and on the track.

VALUABLE VICTORIES – these wooden rims were used to successfully race and win races.

BEST TRADITION - these wooden rims have proven their quality in major competitions since the late '40s.

SMOOTH AND FLOWING - is the driving feeling when you drive on an asphalt road with these wooden rims”.

AERODYNAMICS – The slightly oval teardrop shape was designed to increase stability and keep air friction resistance low.

RESISTANCE TO IMPACTS – the special elasticity of the molecular structure of the special wood composite results in greater resistance to road impacts.

PERFECT FIT OF THE TUBULAR TIRE ON THE WOODEN RIM - The adhesion of the glued tubular tire to the wooden rim is more even and better, as wood is a poor conductor of heat. Especially on long descents that require more intensive use of the brakes, a lot of heat is generated by the frequent braking on aluminum rims. Unlike with these rims, the thermal load on the tubular tire is much lower when using CB Italia wooden rims, thus ensuring the best possible adhesion of the tubular tire to the rim under all conceivable conditions.

HIGH BRAKING QUALITY – The friction between the wooden rim and the brake pads is stronger, which results in significantly increased braking effect in dry conditions.

RESTORATION AND RECONSTRUCTION - Hickory wooden rims are also ideal for the restoration of vintage racing bikes from the late 1930s to the early 1990s.
