K1 RD

Winning Legacy

The winning legacy of those who have turned effort into victory. Behind every curve, every climb, and every descent reflects a tradition of excellence, a winning baton passed from generation to generation.

The new Miche K1 RD Wheels: natural-born winners.

Fully developed and manufactured in-house at Miche, the K1 RD is the flagship of our Tech Centre.

Tested on the most technical World Cup trails and developed in close collaboration with the Wilier-Vittoria MTB Factory Team athletes, this wheel was used by Simone Avondetto when to win the 2024 European XCO Championship.

Peak performance and durability

Peak performance and durability

Peak performance and durability are achieved with CeramingSpeed coated oversized bearing, an advanced technology that significantly enhances the lifespan of bearings.
This coating ensures minimal wear and tear, even under demanding conditions. The reduced friction not only extends the bearings' life but also improves overall efficiency.
This results in consistently optimal performance and long-term reliability, making CeramicSpeed coating ideal for high-speed racing.
Wider, smoother, faster

Wider, smoother, faster

Minimizing rolling resistance is the key for Mountain Bike riders. Wider rims enhance tire support, allowing for lower pressure and better handling on rough terrain.
This means the tire's contact patch stays stable, reducing issues like 'tire burping' and improving control. 
By running lower pressure, your tire adapts more easily to obstacles, decreasing rolling resistance and rider fatigue.
Lightweight and responsive

Lightweight and responsive

A new lightweight and responsive rim, engineered for high performance.
We have increased the inner width from 29mm to 30mm and bearing have been improved to oversized model, enhancing stability and traction for a superior riding experience.
With new updates and a lighter build, we managed to bring the weight of the wheelset down to just 1345 grams.
This careful balance of improved functionality and weight efficiency ensures that riders can enjoy both durability and speed without compromise. 
More stiffness and impact resistance

More stiffness and impact resistance

Compared to the K1-EVO, the stiffness of the K1-RD wheels has been enhanced by 20%.
This increased stiffness translates into improved handling and responsiveness, particularly during high-speed cornering and technical trail sections.
Additionally, the K1-RD wheels feature a 15% improvement in impact resistance. This enhancement makes the wheels more durable and better able to withstand harsh terrain and sudden impacts without compromising their structural integrity.
