DescriptionThe whole story▼
Engineered for the single-sided swingarm of the Ducati Panigale V4, V4S and V4R (2018–2024), the BST STAR TEK Carbon Rear Wheel is where measurable weight reduction meets all-day riding confidence. At just 2.20 kg without bearings and spacers, this offset wheel slashes rotational inertia so the Panigale accelerates harder out of every corner, steers with uncanny precision at lean, and responds instantly to throttle inputs — whether you're completing a Sunday canyon run or banking lap times at the circuit.
Key Features
- Monocoque prepreg carbon rim bonded to a 6082 T6 aluminium hub — combining structural rigidity with an ultralight 2.20 kg bare weight
- Advanced CRBNX carbon technology maximises stiffness-to-weight ratio for consistent, predictable rear-end feedback at all lean angles
- BST Ultra-High-Speed 90° aluminium valve with cap — designed to maintain integrity at extreme rotational speeds
- Every wheel CT-scanned and individually inspected before dispatch; supplied with a unique serial number for full traceability
- DOT E, JWL, TÜV (§ 287 StVZO) and JASO T203-85 certified — road-legal and track-ready without compromise
- Wide finish selection including standard Gloss, Satin-Matte, Forged Carbon, Solid colours and Candy tones to complement any Panigale livery
- Two-year manufacturer warranty and ISO-certified production facility
Build Quality and Technology
BST constructs the STAR TEK wheel using aerospace-grade prepreg carbon laid up in a one-piece monocoque structure. There are no bonded joints in the rim itself — fibre continuity runs uninterrupted from spoke to spoke, which is why the fatigue figures are so exceptional: 1,000,000 bending and torsion cycles in testing, a bending fatigue load of 452 Nm and a torsion fatigue load of 923 Nm. The 6082 T6 aluminium hub is precision-machined to suit the Panigale's offset, single-sided swingarm geometry, ensuring a factory-accurate fitment with zero compromise on concentricity.
The CRBNX manufacturing process allows BST to control fibre orientation at a level conventional carbon layup cannot match, resulting in a wheel that feels planted and communicative rather than nervous — exactly what you want when you are exploring the limits of a 214 hp V4 superbike.
Safety and Certification
Lightweight carbon wheels are only as good as their verification programme. BST subjects every STAR TEK to a comprehensive battery of tests before it leaves the factory:
- Static load rating: 280 kg (617.2 lbs)
- Radial impact load (JASO T203-85): 420 kg (925.9 lbs)
- Bending fatigue load: 452 Nm over 1,000,000 cycles
- Torsion fatigue load: 923 Nm over 1,000,000 cycles
- 6,000 km radial endurance run
- Radial impact test with residual tyre pressure retention
- Individual CT-scan and serial number traceability
Fitment and Compatibility
This is the offset rear wheel version, designed specifically for motorcycles equipped with a single-sided swingarm. It fits the following models:
- Ducati Panigale V4 (2018–2024)
- Ducati Panigale V4S (2018–2024)
- Ducati Panigale V4R (2018–2024)
If your Panigale uses a conventional double-sided swingarm, please consult the standard (non-offset) BST STAR TEK rear wheel listing. Bearing type — steel or ceramic — is selectable at the time of purchase to match your riding discipline and maintenance preference.
