Our Philosophy
At Particle, we seek to offer wheels that are safe and performance-worthy. Our focus is to make wheels designed for every rider. We offer 9 different road and gravel wheel series, most of which have 6 different rim depths.
In order to demonstrate the quality of our wheels and to allow for them to be raced in UCI sanctioned races and events, we have decided to certify all of our Ultralight and Hyperlight wheelsets as well as some of our RCX Team wheels.
Going Beyond UCI Testing
The UCI's standard for wheelsets is for them to be able to withstand 40 joules of force in the form of a vertical impact test. While this is the industry standard, our standard for all wheelsets is a minimum of 80 joules.
