BST Rapid TEK Carbon Fiber Wheels for 2018+ Ducati Panigale V4 & Streetfighter V4
BST Rapid TEK Carbon Fiber Wheels | Ducati Panigale V4 & Streetfighter V4
Transform your Ducati Panigale or Streetfighter V4 with BST Rapid TEK Carbon Fiber wheels. Save 40-60% in unsprung weight for elite handling and acceleration.
Blackstone Tek (BST) brings "Technology Made Beautiful" to the world’s most iconic Italian superbikes. The Rapid TEK series represents a leap forward in carbon fiber wheel design, utilizing a unique single-mold (monocoque) production process that eliminates joints and welds for unmatched structural integrity.
For the Ducati V4 platform, these wheels provide a massive reduction in unsprung rotating mass—weighing between 40% to 60% less than stock cast or forged aluminum wheels. By concentrating the wheel’s mass at the hub and utilizing hollow carbon fiber spokes, BST achieves the lowest possible Moment of Inertia (MOI). This means your Panigale or Streetfighter will respond to rider inputs with precision that was previously reserved for factory GP bikes.
Each wheel features high-pressure forged carbon hub areas and CNC-machined aluminum inserts for maximum durability. They are a direct "bolt-on" replacement, utilizing the OEM Ducati sprocket carrier and brake components, ensuring a seamless installation. Fully DOT and JWL approved, the Rapid TEK wheels are robust enough for daily street use while being light enough to slash seconds off your track lap times.
Best Uses:
-
Competitive Racing & Track Days: Essential for riders looking to maximize corner speed and reduce lap times through superior agility.
-
High-End Custom Builds: For owners who want the pinnacle of exotic aesthetics and "eye candy" for their V4.
-
Aggressive Canyon Riding: Improves safety and control by allowing the suspension to track the road surface more effectively.
-
Performance Restoration: An ideal upgrade for those replacing damaged OEM wheels with something significantly stronger and lighter.
5 Key Features:
-
Monocoque Single-Mold Construction: Seamless carbon fiber layup provides maximum strength and a superior strength-to-weight ratio.
-
5-Split Spoke "Rapid TEK" Design: An edgy, slanted spoke configuration that optimizes aerodynamic efficiency and structural rigidity.
-
High-Pressure Forged Carbon Hubs: Unique hub areas engineered to handle the extreme torque of the Desmosedici Stradale engine.
-
Interchangeable Hub System: Allows for the long-term value of the wheels, with hubs that can potentially be adapted if you change motorcycle models.
-
Aerospace-Grade Materials: Manufactured in an ISO 9001:2015 certified facility using the same pre-preg carbon fiber found in elite aeronautical applications.
5 Key Benefits:
-
Instant Acceleration: Lower rotational mass means the engine spends less energy spinning the wheels and more energy driving the bike forward.
-
Effortless Direction Changes: Reduced gyroscopic effect makes the bike feel significantly lighter and easier to flick into tight corners.
-
Enhanced Suspension Performance: Lighter unsprung weight allows the shock and forks to react faster to bumps, increasing traction and grip.
-
Reduced Rider Fatigue: The bike requires less physical effort to maneuver, allowing you to stay sharp and focused during long track sessions.
-
Thermal Stability & Durability: Carbon fiber is naturally resistant to fatigue and corrosion, outlasting traditional magnesium or aluminum racing wheels.
