BST wheels are now the standard against which all others are judged for strength, durability and lightness, for both road and race use. Manufactured in a single moulding operation using a unique aerospace process to produce a wheel that is far stronger than any standard or magnesium wheel, but much lighter too. With BST you can be sure you will have a product which is the result of decades of research, development, testing and certification by industry bodies, including TUV.

"I have BST's on my Desm0sedici and also used them on my 1098 and they are great wheels and made a difference in the way the bike tipped in and accelerated out of corners" wilson59 - Ducati.ms Senior Member Ducati 1098

"I love the BST's. The original forged aluminum wheels on my R have never been on the street and are stored in the BST boxes in my garage. But I can say the BST's are better than the original wheels that came on my S. It's not just the total weight of the wheels, but the fact that the majority of the weight of the BST wheels is centered around the hub. I have kept the originals from the R as back-ups, but may sell them now that I'm convinced about the quality/performance of the BST's. If I need to replace one, I'll get another BST." greggreg - Ducati.org member Ducati 1098R & 1098S
