About Core Moto Forged Aluminum Wheels
Core Moto wheels are proudly made in the USA, in-house.
Designed for Superbike Road Racing / engineered to meet DOT durability standards.
The Apex-6 is the lightest DOT / JWL / JASO approved aftermarket forged wheel available.
Well suited for Road Racing / Drag Racing / Street Riding / Custom Bikes

Ultra-Light / Super-Strong / Beautiful:
While Apex-6 wheels exceed several benchmark standards of performance and durability, appearance is also important.
Core Moto takes pride in delivering detail above and beyond the competition.

Quality Over Quantity:
Apex-6 wheels are highly detailed and intricately featured. The 5-axis CNC milling process is where it happens.
When you receive an Apex-6 wheel set we want you to know and feel that you received a product that was crafted, not just punched out and pushed to market in mass numbers.

Every detail in the design serves three purposes: reduced weight, added strength, and distinctive style. Engineering took time in development to bring these three purposes together. More material isn't always stronger. In some cases, removing material from strategic locations creates shapes that eliminate fracture points by diverting or dispersing mechanical load stresses. The Apex-6 wheel spent over a year in development before the first physical article was produced for physical torture testing.

Standard Anodized Wheel Color Options:

• Gloss Gold
• Gloss Black
• Gloss Blue
• Gloss Red
• Gloss Light Gold

Note: Anodized colors can vary from batch to batch. Wheel sets are paired as front and rear in the anodize process... very slight shade differences from front to rear may be present when sold as a pair but will remain under a 5% range. In most cases this is undetectable when the wheels are mounted on the vehicle.

Custom Wheel Colors and Finish Options Available with Additional Lead Time and Pricing:

• Raw Machine Finish**
• Gloss Clear Bright Anodized
• Gloss Ti-Gray Anodized
• Gloss Copper Anodized
• Gloss Green Anodized
• Gloss Orange Anodized
• Gloss Pink Anodized
• Gloss Purple Anodized
• Satin Black Anodized
• Satin Gold Anodized
• Satin Red Anodized
• Satin Blue Anodized
• Satin Purple Anodized
• Satin Gray Anodized

**Raw Machine Finish means the wheel bodies have had no surface finishing treatment or protective coating. This option is only for customers who wish to have the wheels painted, powder coated or anodized themselves. Raw Machine Finish wheels are sold with all components but are not assembled and carry no factory warranty since the wheels can be damaged in the finishing process if not done properly. Buyer assumes all risks.

Custom Limited Colors and Finishes:
Core Moto may release limited run custom colors from time to time. Core Moto will list these custom wheel sets on our website when available and will not accept pre orders.

Performance Differences:
Decreasing unsprung weight (weight below the suspension) and rotational mass greatly improves several responsive aspects of usable performance you can actually feel. The Apex-6 Wheel was designed to reduce overall weight, while also centralizing mass to decrease rotational forces. These weight reductions result in improved suspension response, lighter handling, faster acceleration and shorter braking distances. More info about unsprung weight and rotational mass at the bottom of the page.

About the Wheels:
CAD Designed, one-piece, proprietary forged monolithic hub design. Core Moto makes true forged wheels, purpose built for performance. Rather than using market available generic forged blanks, Core Moto wheel forgings are made specific to each model we offer from proprietary forging dies. Although a custom forging limits the number of sizes we can offer, it nets a superior product overall due to optimized grain flow properties. Each wheel starts out as an aluminum billet that does not resemble a wheel. This Billet is then heated and formed by a 6000-ton controlled hydraulic constant pressure forge to create the central hub and spoke profile with optimized grain flow. Next a cold spin process is used to form the strong and light rim section. This creates the basic shape of the wheel profile with a non linier grain that instead flows to match the profile of the wheel. This process is highly controlled to distribute the grain of the metal in a way that optimizes the strength of the wheel on a molecular level, thus requiring less material (weight) needed in the final product. Constant pressure forging creates a more controlled and repeatable product than traditional drop forging. Core Moto wheels are not drop forged. After forging, the near net forged blanks are heat treated, turned and milled by 3 and 5-Axis CNC machines in the USA with carbide and diamond cutting tools to remove material and give the wheel its final shape.
