Peter Hickman: Unleashing speed with DYMAG® UP7X wheels

Peter Hickman needs no introduction when it comes to Road Racing. The fastest rider to ever lap both the Isle of Man TT, Northwest 200, and Ulster Grand Prix circuits!

After a very successful IOM TT in 2022 with his first Supertwin win on the Paton, Hicky is setting his sights on more success in 2023 but this time on new machinery. 2023 will see Peter racing the Yamaha R7 built in-house at his PHR Performance headquarters. Not only will he compete at the TT but also the Northwest 200 road races. The bike has undergone extensive upgrades and improvements with the very best performance parts being added including the very latest Dymag racing wheels.

Dymag UK has been designing and manufacturing wheels for over 30 years, so to supply “Hicky” with our UP7X wheels for this new project is an ideal partnership. Peter’s feedback can only help strengthen the already well-renowned UK brand. To top the partnership off PHR Performance has also become a retailer of the ever-popular aftermarket Dymag wheels. 

Peter said: 

Dymag play a key role in the racing world. Their wheels are ultra-light, meaning more performance from the motorcycle and faster changes of direction as well as being stronger than standard wheels, which is a huge benefit especially when racing on the road.

Having the opportunity to run my Supertwin using the UP7X wheels is awesome, and I’m delighted to be associated with Dymag.

Last year I had huge success in the Supertwin races, and I want this year to be no different, although I am under no illusions of just how hard it is going to be. It’s a brand-new bike and nobody has any real experience with it yet in the UK and on the roads. The bike has been built by my PHR Performance Centre and is a new project for us. The team have done a great job, as we only received the bike recently, but the finished bike looks mega, topped off with fantastic-looking wheels!

I’m looking forward to running the bike next week at the NW200 and then onto the IOM TT!”

Forgeline and Dymag selected by SSC as the wheel of choice for world’s fastest production vehicle 1024 640 Dymag Performance Wheels

Forgeline and Dymag selected by SSC as the wheel of choice for world’s fastest production vehicle

Oct 20, 2020, Dayton, OH  –  Forgeline and Dymag, co-developed wheel of choice for the world’s “Fastest Production Vehicle”, the SSC Tuatara, with a top speed recorded of 331mph.

The morning of Saturday, October 10, the team at SSC North America, along with acclaimed international racing driver, Oliver Webb, took the Tuatara down a seven-mile stretch of State Route 160 outside of Las Vegas, near Pahrump for their record attempt. The result was a new world record of 331 mph peak speed and recorded vehicle average 316.11 mph (508.73 km/h) during two high-speed consecutive runs in opposite directions.

From the Tuatara’s extremely low drag coefficient of 0.279 to the staggering power output of 1,750 horsepower, the engineering approach of SSC North America was focused and methodical. “We came pretty close to meeting the theoretical numbers, which is astonishing to do in a real world setting on a public road. America’s new claim to victory in the ‘land-based space race’ is going to be tough to beat”, said Jerod Shelby, CEO of SSC.

For the Tuatara’s wheels, SSC again turned to Forgeline Motorsports to supply their Carbon+Forged series wheels. Forgeline Motorsports, in partnership with renowned carbon wheel manufacturer, Dymag, were tasked to deliver on this extremely important dynamic and aesthetic effort. Based on Forgeline’s CF201 wheels, they utilize a 6061-T6 forged, proprietary alloy center, coupled with Dymag’s patented carbon fiber barrels engineered to offer the rigidity and durability needed to perform at the peak of hypercar performance. “The revolutionary Carbon+Forged wheels offer the most unique combination of strength and lightweight attributes in the industry,” says Forgeline president Dave Schardt. “We’re very proud to be a trusted part of this momentous victory. With our partner, Dymag, we set out to co-develop one of the most technologically advanced, hypercar wheels available. We feel, this world record set by the Tuatara, validates the dedication of our teams to deliver real world results.

Chris Shelley, CEO of Dymag stated, “Driving at 331mph on a relatively narrow road requires high wheel stability, tight manufacturing and assembly tolerances, high wheel and rim stiffness so allowing the driver to remain in complete control and have the confidence to push the Tuatara to its ultimate limits.” Shelley went on to say, “Our wheels have been tested in the lab, on track, and on-road under extreme conditions.”

Their world record was clear and confirmed, however, “There was definitely more in there,” said Webb, of the Tuatara following the record run. “And with better conditions, I know we could have gone faster. As I approached 331 mph, the Tuatara climbed almost 20 mph within the last five seconds. It was still pulling well. As I told Jerod, the car wasn’t running out of steam yet. The crosswinds are all that prevented us from realizing the car’s limit.”

SSC North America, CEO, Jerod Shelby stated, “We are truly fortunate to have trusted partners in Forgeline and Dymag. When reaching speeds in excess of 330 miles per hour, the wheels on the Tuatara are paramount to the safety of the driver and success of our company. As with all components of the Tuatara we diligently researched wheel manufacturers from around the globe and came to the clear conclusion that Forgeline and Dymag were the only choice for us. We would not trust any other supplier with such an important responsibility that is so integral to the success of SSC.”

In addition to the “Fastest Production Vehicle” record, the SSC Tuatara broke the world records for:

  • “Fastest Flying Mile on a Public Road” at 313.12 mph (503.92 km/h)
  • “Fastest Flying Kilometer on a Public Road” at 321.35 mph (517.16 km/h)
  • “Highest Speed Achieved on a Public Road” at 331.15 mph (532.93 km/h)

“We validate our engineering by building a car capable of going 330 mph. We validate our passion by accomplishing this, despite years of setbacks and challenges. And we validate our values by making sure Oliver’s safety was the first and foremost important goal of the day.”

– Jerod Shelby, CEO, SSC North America

Dymag embarks on ambitious growth strategy 1024 640 Dymag Performance Wheels

Dymag embarks on ambitious growth strategy

Dymag, the company behind the state-of-the-art performance wheels used on some of the top performance vehicles in the world, is embarking on an ambitious growth and development journey from its HQ in Wiltshire, England.

Dymag Group Limited (Dymag) designs and manufactures lightweight carbon composite hybrid and full carbon wheels for cars and motorcycles. The company supplies both complete wheels and carbon barrels (rims) as sub-components to third party aftermarket companies in the UK, Europe, USA and Japan. Its clients include a global supercar brand, which is supplied on an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) basis. Other OEM deals are in the pipeline.

Dymag’s aftermarket wheels are designed and manufactured to internationally recognised standards and are fitted to vehicle brands including Ferrari, McLaren, Porsche, Lamborghini and JLR’s Jaguar F-Type. The firm’s technology has a full UK patent for its unique design, which strengthens the wheel rim using different materials constructed to deliver a complete wheel that is lighter, stronger and faster than conventional designs. The wheel is highly durable and performs safely in high impact conditions, such as hitting potholes.

The company is ready to scale up production to offer its technology to other automotive businesses, thus delivering some of the functional advantages already enjoyed by high performance users. The wheels are tough but lightweight, creating a significant carbon footprint advantage in terms of fuel economy and, in the case of electric vehicles, in range per full charge.

Dymag plans to increase its production capacity with the aim of driving down costs as it strikes agreements with leading tier one automotive suppliers which specialise in wheels and structural composite components for the automotive, industrial and aerospace sectors. The resulting agreements will see this British technology applied to wheels on mid-market cars and other vehicles in the passenger vehicle market.

Carbon fibre wheel weight reduction benefits are huge; estimates from a leading sportscar OEM manufacturer suggest a Dymag Carbon Hybrid wheel is typically at least 40% lighter than an equivalent cast aluminum wheel.

Chris Shelley, CEO of Dymag, said: “The technology is now starting to move into mainstream vehicle production having been developed and proved in advanced supercar applications. At present wheels are produced in relatively small run numbers of hundreds per month. We are ready to deliver on a plan to scale up production to thousands per month. The planned increased capacity will also drive prices down rapidly, bringing them towards economic viability for all passenger vehicles.

“International competition is modest but also gearing up for a ‘transformation’ in wheel technology. An Australian firm has recently raised US$50m on sales expectations in this important niche sector of the future automotive supply chain market. We have been talking to a number of interested investors and have scaled up our plans to meet their ambitions and the opportunities we see in the future market.”

The UK firm is planning to raise an additional £5m of growth capital in the next year, resulting in a new production line ultimately capable of delivering 50,000 wheels per year.
