Your Ultimate Weapon Against the Elements.
The 4-Shore isn’t just a wheelset; it’s the classic, uncompromising standard that defined beach racing. When you line up against the wind and the churned sand of the coasts, you need absolute trust in your gear. Born from the demanding world of mountain biking, our engineering DNA guarantees durability and innovation across all disciplines.
Experience the relentless drive and stability provided by our pioneering wide, lightweight carbon rims. The 33mm internal width is perfectly tuned to support the wide, low-pressure tires essential for dominating loose sand, dramatically reducing rolling resistance and boosting comfort. This focus on width isn’t a trend; it’s a proven performance advantage.
We combine this with a 42mm aerodynamic depth, giving you the critical high-speed advantage needed on long, straight coastal sections—delivering the ‘fast’ element of our core philosophy. The secret to the 4-Shore’s bulletproof stability and exceptional stiffness is our ART (Asymmetrical Rim Technology). Hand-built right here in the Netherlands, ART ensures perfect spoke tension and superior durability, providing a level of reliability that mass-produced wheels simply cannot touch.
Having specialized in and developed for this extreme niche, the superior reliability proven in beach racing directly strengthens the engineering of every wheel we offer. For ultimate peace of mind, every 9th Wave rim comes with a Lifetime Warranty and a comprehensive Crash Replacement Program.
Choose the 4-Shore. Choose the wheelset built to win the battle with the elements.
