WASP STING       SUPER STRONG JUNCTION



 Pin-joint rim is out of date! Hold on! This is not exactly right!  The new coming “Wasp   - Double Pushed Fixing Process
 Sting” series will absolutely change conventional views of pin-joint rim.


 With traditional round shape steel pin, pin-joint rim gained bicyclists’ reliance on
 its stability and strength, however, it also limit possibility on rim design. For example,   I. THE PIN - 304 stainless steel pin

 alloy stick can effectively enhance both strength of the seam and the joint itself.
                                     II. THE JOIN PROCESS - Double-Stamped Fixing Process
 This unique component provides wide possibilities on designing rims for heavy duty

                                        However loose joint is a common problem in this traditional

                                        to photo 2.)

                                        Our solution to solve this problem is adopting Double-
                                        Stamped Fixing Process. The first Process is stamping pin’s
                                        end before the rim joined. (Please refer to photo 3.) Second
                                        process is lacing the rim then stamp pins’ end of the other
                                        side. Under this Double-Stamped Fixing Process rim is
                               3        accurately and firmly joined. (Please refer to photo 4 and 5.)


                                     III. THE ADVANTAGES
                                     3)  For Single process pin joint rim, tensile strength of its joint is
                                        around 200kgs, some even less. Rim under Double-Stamped
                                        Fixing Process can uplift tensile strength to or over 600kgs.
                                        This unique process can effectively eliminate weak point of

                                        appearance, it also decreased improper wear off that caused
