DYMAG – LEADING THE WORLD IN WHEEL INNOVATION AND PERFORMANCE

Dymag is a company with its heritage firmly rooted in racing. Started in the early 1970’s, we quickly established a reputation for pioneering innovation inventing the world’s first 3-spoke magnesium motorcycle racing wheel. These ground-breaking wheels were ridden by the legendary Eddie Lawson to overall victory in the AMA Superbike Championship in both 1981 and 1982 and the Moto GP Championship in 1984.

Dymag was the first company in the world to manufacture carbon fibre wheels for both high performance motorcycles and cars certified for road and race use. Uniquely, Dymag manufactures wheels in high quality forged magnesium, aluminium and lightweight carbon fibre. We also offer over 3,000 individual fitments for a huge range of motorcycles. We believe no other company has the capability and technology to do this.

WE’RE BACK IN TOP LEVEL RACING

Continuing our tradition, for 2016 we’re partnering with a number of leading IOM TT, British Superbike & European Race Teams

SPONSORED EVENTS

Dymag Golden Era Superbike Championship | Thundersport GB Series

The Dymag Golden Era class supports pre-2000 year bikes of 750, 950 and 1000cc capacities and will be televised on Motors TV.

This is Dymag’s first series sponsorship reflecting the importance that this level of racing holds, not only for rider development but also to showcase what is for many, the golden age of superbike racing.

As all Dymag wheel specifications and materials are permitted in the Golden Era class, we have the opportunity to create a real heritage moment for Dymag, showcasing the technical quality and competitive edge that our wheels deliver

“We are on track with our growth plans and expanding our composite wheel manufacturing into a state of the art facility with support from UKTi and the government’s Advanced Manufacturing Supply Chain Initiative (AMSCI). With technical support from the NCC we are designing, installing and commissioning the very latest composite manufacturing process equipment.

Thanks to this ground breaking partnership, Dymag has access to the NCC’s composite expertise in the aerospace, marine and automotive industries.” Chris Shelley CEO Dymag Group Ltd

“We are thrilled to be able to bring composites manufacturing support to Dymag Performance Wheels Limited at this exciting time as they develop their business to provide higher volume manufacturing technologies.” Tom Hitchings Business Development Director, National Composite Centre

PROUD TO BE BRITISH

We have been designing and manufacturing auto and moto wheels for over 30 years from our UK base in Wiltshire, England. Whilst the technology that goes into every wheel has evolved, our relentless commitment to quality and design remains at the core of every wheel we make.

HERITAGE & INNOVATION

Originally manufacturing gravity die-case magnesium wheels from which the company grew its name “Dy-mag”, we have continually sought to utilise the most advanced materials and latest manufacturing technology.

RACING SUCCESS

All our racing, aftermarket and OEM wheels have been developed in elite motorsport applications and adapted for road use. Our latest prototyping workshop, and cutting edge CAD and fluid dynamics software are enabling us to develop race wheels of the future.

LOW MOMENT OF INERTIA (MOI)

All Dymag wheels are born from the same meticulous design process, including a thorough engineering & optimisation phase where all unnecessary material (where durability will not be impacted) is carved away. The result is a range of wheels with a super low moment of inertia. Design for low MOI reduces the amount of energy required to overcome inertia resulting in vastly improved acceleration, braking & directional changes > low MOI offers supreme handling.

LIGHT WEIGHT

The light weight nature of all Dymag wheels utilising low density materials offers a huge reduction over original equipment (OE) wheels. Newton told us that a force (provided by your right hand) acting on a body of lower mass (Dymag wheels) will accelerate faster than the competition. We trust Newton.

STATE OF THE ART TECHNOLOGY

Our new carbon composite facility in the heart of the Wiltshire countryside, employs state-of-the art production technology. We are capable of mass production volume with improved finished detail. The resolution that Dymag has become known for drives our technology, including our composite modulus refinement programme.

MARKETING COMMUNICATION

We love keeping our customers up-to-date with our latest news, product specifications and technology information. Everything is on our website at www.dymag.com and you can also follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Look for our wheels in action on our dedicated YouTube channel.

We fly the Dymag flag at exhibitions and special events worldwide as we continue to grow our global dealer network.

Dymag achieves regular, targeted coverage in leading online and print platforms and we in invest in aspirational advertising. Dymag wheels score highly in long term tests, proving that durability is a high priority in every Dymag designed wheel as well as achieving dramatic weight savings over OE wheels.

Yamaha Europe ‘Yard Built’ series and other special projects remain an important channel of communication, enabling us to promote our design flexibility and vision, while remaining honest to the Dymag brand.

THE DYMAG WHEEL RANGE

In addition to our rigorous in-house testing, all Dymag wheels are certified to BSAU50, SAE and JWL standards for road and race applications. This means that our professional specification, race-winning wheels are the very same wheels that you can buy for your own road or track bike.

By using our own modular aluminium hub design, Dymag are able to offer over 3000 individual fitments, from a 1985 Suzuki RG500 to a 2016 Kawasaki ZX-10R. Complete wheelsets are delivered fully assembled with valves, spacers, high quality bearings and your specified sprocket ready for you to fit your tyres and discs and get out riding. We also offer a ceramic bearing upgrade on certain applications.

All of our rear wheels are assembled with Dymag’s proprietary cush drive & sprocket carrier and a Talon sprocket. We carry a full compliment of spare parts for our wheels and offer an in-house wheel refurbishment service which includes crack testing and refinishing. Dymag will never repair a lightweight wheel that has been more than superficially damaged.

Dymag offer a Satin Black powder coat as standard for all carriers and non-carbon wheels, with the option to upgrade to a custom colour. An anodised finish is offered in several colours for carriers within carbon wheel sets only and our CA5 carbon wheels always retain a polished weave finish.

CA5 . CARBON COMPOSITE

Produced by in-house skilled technicians at our UK composite production facility, using proprietary cloth and lay up orientation. We refine the modulus of the composite and therefore tailor the stiffness and compliance of the CA5 wheel body.

“We are extremely proud to re-kindle our association with Dymag, I have known Chris Shelley for many years, right back to when he supported me through the European Championships, which I went on to win, so when we decided to go back into British Superbikes, the decision to run with the UP7X aluminium wheel was a no-brainer as they simply are the best, and we know Dymag will never let us down.” Brent Gladwin Principal, Team WD40 “

“Quattro Plant Kawasaki BSB and IOM TT Team have opted for known quality in its wheel choice for its assault of the BSB Championship in 2014 , Dymag UP7X were an obvious choice for the team with the product being great quality and value for money, Not to mention the superb back up service available in the UK.” Pete Exstance Principal, Team Quattro Plant Bournemouth Kawasaki

“When we decided to take KWR into the Moto America Superbike series for 2016, we were looking for new partners that could help us build the best bike possible. Now that we are working with Dymag and running the UP7X wheels on our Yamaha R1, I’m confident that we have a big piece of our puzzle in place. I am looking forward to my Superbike rookie season and am excited to have Dymag in my corner.” Kyle Wyman KWR Racing
