Lightweight has gone dark with the new Schwarz Edition black-on-black wheel options for all of their popular models.

Beyond the completely murdered out graphics over matte black carbon, the wheels get upgraded to CeramicSpeed bearings for less rolling resistance and “more speed and fun.” This new colorway joins the stock graphics and the Weiss Editions with white graphics and spokes and is available on:

  • Meilenstein Schwarz
  • Meilenstein C Schwarz
  • Meilenstein Overmayer Schwarz
  • Fernweg Schwarz
  • Fernweg C Schwarz
  • Gipfelsturm Schwarz
  • Autobahn Schwarz

The “C” on some models refers to Clincher versions, others are tubular. Pics of the rest below…

The Schwarz Editions likely carry an upcharge over the standard models, we’ve inquired and will update the post when we hear back. In the meantime…

May the Schwarz be with you.

Incidentally, the “meh” is strong with this one.

Cost increase makes sense – Black decals cost way more than white ones and are significantly faster! (Must admit they look bad!, I want them)

Murdered out and out of date. These things were always 200% over-priced anyway.

They should double the price so chops don’t buy them
