DescriptionThe whole story▼
When every fraction of a second counts on track, the BST STAR TEK Carbon rear wheel for the Ducati Panigale 1299 and 1299S (2015–2018) is the upgrade that delivers measurable gains where it matters most. Engineered specifically for the single-sided swingarm, its monocoque prepreg carbon construction slashes rotational mass at the rear axle — translating directly into explosive acceleration, sharper corner exit response and a more planted, communicative feel through high-speed bends.
Key Features
- Dramatic reduction in rotational mass via monocoque prepreg carbon construction — feel the difference out of every corner
- 6082 T6 aluminium hub integrated into the carbon shell for rigidity without compromise
- BST Ultra-High-Speed 90° aluminium valve with cap — ready for sustained high-speed use on circuit
- TÜV 287 StVZO and JASO T203-85 certified, with 100% CT scanning and individual serial-number traceability on every wheel
- 1,000,000-cycle bending and torsion fatigue tested, plus a 6,000 km radial load endurance run
- 14 finish options — from exposed CRBNX gloss carbon to Solid and Candy colours — to suit race builds and road-legal setups alike
- Backed by a 2-year manufacturer's warranty and ISO certification
Racing Performance and Construction
The STAR TEK rear wheel is built around BST's CRBNX carbon fibre technology, which uses aerospace-grade prepreg layups cured under controlled pressure and temperature. The result is a wheel that weighs just 2.20 kg (4.85 lbs) without bearings and spacers — a figure that puts it among the lightest production rear wheels available for the Panigale 1299 platform. That mass saving is felt immediately: throttle response sharpens, the chassis settles faster mid-corner and tyre feedback becomes more direct. For track riders chasing lap times, this is one of the highest-return modifications available.
The offset design was developed specifically for the Ducati single-sided swingarm geometry, ensuring correct chain line and tyre clearance without adaptation. BST's Ultra-High-Speed 90° valve is rated for continuous high-speed operation, so there is no need to swap hardware before a track day.
Safety and Quality Assurance
Every BST STAR TEK wheel leaves the factory only after passing an exhaustive quality protocol. Each unit is CT scanned in its entirety — not sampled, not batch-checked, but individually inspected — and carries its own unique serial number. Load testing follows TÜV 287 StVZO and JASO T203-85 standards: the wheel sustains a static load of 280 kg (617.2 lbs), a radial impact load of 420 kg (925.9 lbs), a bending fatigue load of 452 Nm and a torsion fatigue load of 923 Nm. The radial impact test also verifies residual air pressure retention after impact — a critical safety criterion for high-speed riding. One million bending and torsion fatigue cycles and a 6,000 km radial endurance run complete the programme.
Fitment and Compatibility
This wheel is designed and validated for the following model:
- Ducati Panigale 1299 (2015–2018)
- Ducati Panigale 1299S (2015–2018)
The offset specification is engineered for the Ducati single-sided swingarm. Bearing type — steel or ceramic — is selectable at the time of order. Please verify your existing wheel dimensions and swingarm type before ordering.
