BST Rapid Tek Carbon Rear Wheel Aprilia RSV4 / RR / RF / 1100 Factory (2015–2020)

Certified for both road and track use, the BST Rapid Tek carbon rear wheel for the Aprilia RSV4, RR, RF, and 1100 Factory (2015–2020) is one of the lightest and most rigorously validated aftermarket wheels available for this platform. At just 3.20 kg (7.05 lbs), it dramatically reduces unsprung and rotating mass — sharpening steering response, improving acceleration out of corners, and cutting lap times without a single compromise on structural integrity. DOT E and JWL certification means it meets the same legal and safety standards demanded of OEM equipment, on the road or in the pit lane.

Key Features

• DOT E and JWL certified — fully road-legal and track-approved, meeting internationally recognised safety standards for wheel construction and load capacity.
• Ultralight at 3.20 kg — reduced rotating mass delivers noticeably sharper acceleration, more precise corner entry and improved overall agility.
• Pre-preg carbon fibre rim paired with a 6082 T6 aluminium hub — aerospace-grade construction engineered for extreme sportbike stress cycles.
• Rated for a radial load of 994 lbs / 451 kg, static load of 617 lbs / 280 kg, cornering load of 772 Nm and torsional load of 1,030 Nm.
• Includes an ultra-high-speed 90° aluminium valve with cap — race-ready straight out of the box.
• 2-year manufacturer's warranty, reflecting BST's confidence in the long-term durability of every wheel they produce.

Construction and Performance

BST manufactures the Rapid Tek rim using pre-preg carbon fibre — the same layup process used in Formula 1 and MotoGP. Pre-preg ensures consistent resin saturation throughout every ply, eliminating voids and delivering a rim that is both lighter and stronger than post-impregnated alternatives. The 6082 T6 aluminium hub provides the dimensional precision and corrosion resistance demanded by a wheel that may spend its life on damp British roads as readily as a dry Iberian circuit.

The Rapid Tek design is optimised for high-frequency load cycling — the repeated stress of hard braking, aggressive lean angles and track kerb strikes — making it a genuine dual-purpose upgrade rather than a cosmetic one. The load ratings published by BST are not marketing claims; they are independently tested values that underpin the DOT E and JWL certifications.

Finish Options

The wheel is available in a range of finishes — high gloss, satin-matte, forged-carbon, solid blue, solid red, solid green, solid gold, solid silver, solid orange, and black ink — allowing you to match or contrast the distinctive Aprilia colour palette. Bearing choice (steel or ceramic) is also selectable, with ceramic bearings offering further weight savings and reduced friction at sustained high speeds.

Fitment and Compatibility

This rear wheel is designed as a direct-fit replacement for the following Aprilia models:

• Aprilia RSV4 (2015–2020)
• Aprilia RSV4 R (2015–2020)
