FIT Bike Co - 29″ Covid Cruiser BMX Wheelset Silver W/Black Hubs

29″ Covid Cruiser Wheelset – Silver Rims with Black Hubs

This 29″ wheelset is built for cruiser-class BMX bikes, combining FIT double-wall rims with high-flange sealed hubs for reliable performance on street, park, and trail riding. The rear hub features a flip-flop design threaded for freewheel use, offering versatility for different drivetrain setups. Designed for riders who need a durable, cost-effective wheelset that handles the demands of larger-wheeled BMX cruisers.

Key Features

• FIT Double-Wall Rims – Adds strength and impact resistance compared to single-wall designs, reducing the risk of denting or failure during hard landings and rough riding
• High-Flange Sealed 36H Hubs – 36-hole drilling provides strong spoke triangulation for better load distribution; sealed bearings keep dirt and moisture out for smoother rolling and longer hub life
• Flip-Flop Rear Hub – Threaded on both sides for freewheel compatibility, allowing you to swap gearing or run different cog setups without changing hubs (freewheel not included)
• 14G Stainless Steel Spokes with Brass Nipples – Thicker 14-gauge spokes offer durability under load; stainless steel resists corrosion, while brass nipples reduce galvanic corrosion and provide consistent spoke tension
