This is a very detailed and thorough video of comparing weights from different brands and materials. BST, DYMAG, OZ , Yamaha, Aprilia. Magnesium and Forged and non forged factory wheels too
#OZ #BST #Dymag
AS PROMISED in the video following are the Marchesini wheels weights :
Marchesini M10RS top spec wheels is 7.6Kg combined front and back.
Marchesini M7RR top spec wheels weight is 7.7Kg
Still no way near as light as carbon plus Aprilia RSV4 RF Forged Aluminium are still lighter my a small margin

@joshualevi 4 года назад

Thank you very much for the in depth videos! New subscriber. I had a 2018 Ducati Panigale V4S with the forged Marchesinis and I installed a Superlite 520 conversion which removed nearly 3 pounds of unsprung rotating mass. I now have a 2019 V4S and am getting the same 520 conversion kit and am also installing the Rotobox bullet wheels. It will be very interesting to see how it handles with the massive reduction in unsprung, rotating mass. I am also curious as to how the suspension will need to be adjusted given the lighter weight of the wheels. Thank you!

@ChasingTenths 4 года назад

You are absolutely on there , you must get the suspension adjusted after that huge unsprung weight loss. I have heard the Rotobox wheels are amazing especially with ceramic bearings option too. Your bike would feel very different after that in a very good way mate. Good choice. The outlining of the Rotobox wheel rim is replaceable and very solid , so even if a tyre changer damages it at least you got peace of mind

@King-Arthur-The-First Год назад

Brake callipers next please.👍 Std two piece calipers v Standard one piece cast calipers V Two piece Brymbo calipers V Brembo is lower cost cast calipers v Brembo one peace machine from billet callipers. Weight is very important as mentioned in this video. Brake caliper strength is also very important so it can maintain its shape and not flex too much under high pressure. I would love to come across a video that tested hydraulic pressures and strength of construction because these calipers can go into many thousands of pounds. I would hope they are good.

@ChasingTenths Год назад

Some very interesting and intriguing points there . The only reason I never weight callipers cause they weren’t Unsprung mass , it’s stationary mass. But if I get a chance , I will certainly do and thanks for your detailed input and comment , highly appreciated

@King-Arthur-The-First Год назад

@@ChasingTenths you are most welcome my friend thank you for the information and I look forward to future vids. To be clear and just to clarify… rotating unsprung mass is the most important.

I compared all the stock wheels of various era and brands to the most lightest and “popular” versions of dymags, OZ, BST. I approached the UK’s biggest retailer a Day after the first lockdown opened and asked them for details of the best selling ones in U.K. there’s no point me comparing wheels which are siting on shelves & don’t get sold or aren’t commonly used. It was about a clear weight difference between stock & most popular sellers. I am just slightly gutted I didn’t have access to Rotobox or Thyssenkrupp carbons but then again these aren’t as commonly sold than the BST carbons I showed with or without ceramic bearings in the video.

Magnesium wheels are actually too rigid for the street because they end up cracking.

@ChasingTenths 3 года назад

I actually spoke to Yamaha tech about it at a race meet once They said that Yamaha had to compensate for pillion passenger weight, road bumps and all sorts of circumstances which might happen on road so they deliberately made the wheels too too robust than they needed too. Yamaha hadn’t put magnesium wheels on their bike since the old racing days so they were really being extra careful hence they ended up being heavy. I personally think they should gone for forged aluminium but it was a great selling piece for them in 2015, people really bought the whole magnesium wheel thing . To be honest it’s excellent of Yamaha to do something different than others

Thanks for the video. I hear stories about carbon wheels breaking. Is there any particular brands or types of carbon wheels better than others? Obviously they're a favourite of yours and you have a choice of any and still use them so they can't be that bad.

@ChasingTenths 4 года назад

to be very honest Steve, I like the normal 5 spoke BST because they have been making that particular one for years and years so I think they have got really good at it but then if you see Dymags and Rotobox , they have a better outer lip which comes out a little more and I think if someone damages the lip , that is replaceable . Carbon wheels are very flexible , they only break on huge impact , which I had at Silverstone but it was a good thing because the wheels destroyed themselves and gave my bike a crumpleZone for impact and nothing else got bent especially forks and all . Carbons is the way forward but only if you start regularly posting time in the fast group. Let me know if you have any questions mate

I wish I had the Suzuki gsxr forged , they are supposed to be very similar to Aprilia , BMW are definitely heavier mate , my mate has the HP4 and he measured them last year for me. The new BMW Msport 2020 carbons are made by BST , they are lovely and light

@ur2slob724 4 года назад

Chasing Tenths yeah mate there lovely when they crack lol, mate works for bmw and the amount of warranty claims is not pretty, bmw hp wheels are among the strongest wheels. I’ll trade off a few grams for strength I’m not Rossi so I’m sure I won’t feel a few grams of weight along with 95% of us 😂😂😂

Why are you weighing spacers? They don't rotate

@ChasingTenths 3 года назад

Hi mate, good point but I had to keep it fair for all the wheels Because BikeHPS weight the wheels with spacers and I had spacers in all the wheels so I weighed it with them . So it’s equal for all of them

Interesting video. I’ve watched it a few times now. I’m seriously looking at carbon wheels but would love your opinion on BST vs Rotobox. I’ve noticed the Rotobox has metal rim strips to add strength. Do you have experience? Can you compare? I’ve subscribed now so I’m expecting results 😂

@ChasingTenths Год назад

Hi Brett, thanks for the lovely comment and following.... sorry for the late reply , some comments slip through the net. I have only heard one hour story of Rotobox in Portugal but to be honest I can't condemn a brand one one failure. But I think BST and Thysenkrupp wheels have had some amazing response, I think BMW and Ducati both had huge contracts with BST to make wheels for their top bikes too. So BST are doing something right , I have no affiliation with any of these companies but the steel lining in the rotobox is definitely for strengthening and it makes a lot of sense. My heart still says BST cause of their experience and Thysenkrupp cause its German technology.

Please though, anyone going to a regular track day or non-world-class race event just don't run these. You're going to get chipped by the machine and it's going to grenade

@ChasingTenths Год назад

You mean don’t run carbon wheels because they are unsafe or not worth the money as talent is gold?

@greengoat5654 Год назад

@@ChasingTenths both, really, but safety first! Chip failures a real problem. Tbh, traction control is gold 🙄

@ChasingTenths Год назад

@@greengoat5654 aahh ok Understandable. From personal experience I’ve never had any issues safety wise in endurance racing U.K. but everyone has their own experience so I understand your comment , have you had a carbon wheel fail on you ? … and yes I totally agree , money towards coaching and tyres goes a long way than carbons

@greengoat5654 Год назад

@@ChasingTenths I'm more basing this off Honda's catastrophic failure with carbon wheels. Either way, carbon is incredibly weak to chip failure and as a person who has changed tires for race events, we're not exactly gentle with your wheels, I have a lot of tires to change. Also considering you can buy an ovale for the cost of a set of most carbon wheels, yeah, definitely better places to invest your money

@ChasingTenths Год назад

@@greengoat5654 I’ll be honest with you , we work with Pirelli directly here in the endurance racing in U.K. and they are super mindful about carbon wheels and take super extra care. Personal , after a full season and 4 years in all I haven’t had a single issue and every 2 years I got them X ray’d by a specialist. But as mentioned, everyone’s experiences are different and definitely for a intermediate to early fast group rider money couldn’t spent elsewhere

@KrazykoolSaurabh138 3 года назад

Tell me the cost?

@ChasingTenths 3 года назад

@@KrazykoolSaurabh138 I don’t think anyone is manufacturing carbon swingarm for most bikes , swingarm needs to have a certain amount of flex which carbon swingarm lacks , hence even in the BMW hp4 race which was a £65,000 bike, they didn’t put carbon swingarm , they only had a carbon chassis with different density of carbon at various points. If I were you I would keep the swing arm normal as it’s a stationary mass and it’s hard to get that swingarm in carbon , I would say impossible even and try to reduce unsprung mass (moving parts lighter) Speak to BST carbons in South Africa if they produce wheels for your bike as in U.K. this bike isn’t there and I haven’t seen carbon wheels that size in U.K. i hope you find the relevant wheels as it makes a massive difference You can also have lighter sprocket and chain, I have made a video on it. And also any moving nuts and bolts made of titanium would also help with weight , you can get them on eBay
