Major Tom Tubular 32H Blk Machined Side Wall

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I use the 32-hole Major Tom for my race and pit wheels. It’s bombproof without being bulky, and gluing is easy thanks to the relief channel. The wide internal width pairs really well with 33mm tubulars, giving them better cornering grip and a more supple feel on bumpy courses."

The Major Tom 700C rim is engineered for riders who demand performance and consistency from their cyclocross wheels. With a 23mm width and tubular design, this rim enhances tire profile and traction—critical for maintaining speed and control in slick, high-stakes race conditions. The 32-hole layout provides the added durability needed for aggressive cornering, run-ups, and frequent remounts.

The machined sidewall offers braking precision for rim-brake setups, while the carefully designed seam relief channel ensures a secure, uniform tubular bond, eliminating the guesswork in tire installation. Built to excel with 25–35mm tires, the Major Tom’s geometry supports responsive handling and better shock absorption across rooty, rutted, or muddy terrain.

This 32-spoke version is ideal for stronger riders, heavier conditions, or any setup where wheel strength is paramount. It’s the go-to for CX purists who want reliability without sacrificing race-day speed.
