Velocity Cliffhanger Rims — Built for Real-World Adventure

When your route turns remote and the miles start stacking up, you need a rim that simply won’t quit. The Velocity Cliffhanger is that rim—unshakably strong, reliably steady, and purpose-built for touring, bikepacking, and fully loaded adventures. It won’t keep you warm on a cold night, but it will make sure you get where you’re going without drama.

A rugged design with short, stout sidewalls helps ward off pinch flats and dents from real-world hits—whether that’s a surprise pothole on the commute, a rocky descent miles from pavement, or something far stranger on the other side of the world. The generous 25mm internal width offers excellent tire support, improving stability, comfort, and control under load compared to traditional narrow rims. Run them tubeless if you prefer—just use a thin tape for the best fit.

Custom anodized colors are available by special order (minimum two-week lead time), while standard Black, Silver, and Polished finishes are stocked in select drillings.
