Sprockets
Bayside Performance recommends Drive Systems sprockets for all
Rotobox applications but any sprocket that has the following measurements will work:
5 (10mm holes) with a PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) of 100mm and a sprocket ID
of 76mm.
Performance
Low weight, high stiffness, great strength and eye-catching
design are the obvious reasons for the continuing growth of carbon fiber usage
in the motorcycle industry. One of the most important parts to significantly
improve a motorcycle’s overall performance – from handling, breaking
to acceleration – are carbon fiber wheels. With the industries first 3
component composite (carbon-epoxy-steel) and its unique one-piece hollow carbon
cast construction, Rotobox is redefining the quality and manufacturing standards
of a whole industry. This puts us on the forefront of carbon fiber motorcycle
wheel innovations.
Racetrack Inspired Design
The look of the Rotobox wheels is determined by the company’s
philosophy to achieve the highest possible performance and safety with no compromises
to popular design guidelines. To maximize the advantages of carbon fiber composite,
and simultaneously reduce all known disadvantages, we let the experience and
expertise of our professional testing team YART (Yamaha Austria Racing Team)
flow into the wheel design. The outcome is a spoke, which meets the rim on a
substantially large area.
Manufacturing
One-Piece Hollow Carbon Cast: Rotobox is the first and still
the only carbon fiber motorcycle wheel producer in the world to develop and
use a unique 3 component composite - combining carbon, epoxy and steel. As the
composite itself the one-piece hollow carbon cast production process is a novelty
as well. During production several different types of CNC tailored carbon fabrics
are hand placed into the negative forming mold of the high precision aluminum
tool. For greater impact resistance a stainless 2,5 mm steel wire is added in
each side of the rim. Next the liquid epoxy resin is injected into the sealed
and tempered tool under very high pressure. This process of producing the one-piece
hollow carbon cast is an adaptation of the special high pressure Resin Transfer
Molding (RTM) technology. Ensuring the continuous quality, safety and accuracy
of the production process.
Central Hubs
The hubs are CNC machined from 7075 T6 aluminum alloy, anodized
into optional color and permanently assembled to the carbon rim. Designed specifically
for each motorcycle model, the Rotobox wheels are a direct replacement of the
OEM-wheels and are supplied with a cush drive, sprocket carrier, spacers and
a choice of ceramic or steel bearings.
90-Degree Valve Stems
All Rotobox wheels come with 90-degree anodized aluminum valve
stems that are not only easy to access, but keep centrifugal force from opening
their Schrader valves and deflating tires during high-speed operation.
Racers Know, What Racers Need
How to make the lightest and strongest wheel on the world? That’s
the question motorcycling racer, research & development engineer and Rotobox
CEO Gregor Bizjak asked himself more than a decade ago. The answer was a revolutionary
3 component-carbon-epoxy-steel-composite and a newly developed production procedure,
which paved the way for a new generation of high performance motorcycle wheels
by Rotobox.
