BST STAR TEK Carbon Rear Wheel – Ducati Panigale V2 955 (2020–2024)

Engineered for riders who demand every last advantage from their Panigale V2 955, the BST STAR TEK carbon rear wheel transforms how the bike accelerates, turns and communicates — all day, every session, without compromise. Its monocoque prepreg-carbon construction slashes rotating mass at the rear axle, so the motor's torque translates directly into forward motion with noticeably less inertia to overcome.

Key Features

• Reduced rotating inertia for explosive, responsive acceleration out of every corner
• CRBNX technology paired with a BST ultra-high-speed aluminium spider for maximum rigidity at minimum weight
• Precise lean-angle feedback and improved stability when powering hard off the apex
• Tested to TÜV 287 StVZO and JASO T203-85 standards — 1,000,000 bending and torsion cycles, 6,000 km radial load test, and radial impact test with residual air pressure retention
• Every individual wheel CT-scanned and individually inspected; serialised for full traceability
• ISO-certified production, 2-year warranty, and a finish range spanning gloss, satin, Forged-Carbon, seven Candy colours and six Solid colours

Construction and Materials

BST builds the STAR TEK rim shell from high-grade prepreg carbon in a monocoque form — meaning no joins, no bonded sections, just a single continuous structure that distributes load uniformly around the rim. The spider centre is machined from aluminium and optimised for the single-sided swingarm geometry of the Panigale V2 955, so fitment is direct and balance is consistent from the factory. Steel or ceramic bearing options let you tailor rolling feel and longevity to your preferred use, whether that is a fast road tour or a full track day programme.

Finish Options

The standard surface is a high-gloss visible carbon weave that suits the Panigale's aggressive aesthetic perfectly. If you want something more individual, BST offers a satin-matte finish, a Forged-Carbon texture, six Solid colours (White, Red, Blue, Green, Orange, Silver) and seven Candy colours including Candy Gold, Candy Green and Candy Purple Blue. All finishes are applied over the same structurally identical rim — the choice is entirely aesthetic.

Safety and Testing

Every STAR TEK wheel leaves BST's ISO-certified facility only after passing a rigorous, multi-stage validation programme. Load testing follows TÜV 287 StVZO and JASO T203-85 protocols. Each rim endures 1,000,000 bending and torsion cycles, a 6,000 km radial load endurance run, and a radial impact test that confirms air retention under sudden kerb-strike conditions. A 100% CT scan of the finished carbon structure eliminates internal voids or delamination before the wheel is assigned its unique serial number and dispatched.

Fitment and Compatibility

This wheel is designed and tested specifically for the Ducati Panigale V2 955, model years 2020 to 2024. The 6.0 x 17-inch rear rim dimension suits the single-sided swingarm and standard rear tyre fitment of these machines. Always verify your exact specification before ordering; the steel bearing and ceramic bearing variants are listed separately to allow you to choose the correct rolling-element type for your application.
