Renowned wheels manufacturer Dymag, have struck a partnership with world’s fastest road racer Peter Hickman, which will see the nine times TT winner running Dymag UK products on his own team’s R7 Yamaha in the Super Twin race stints of TT 2023.
Hickman back on BSB duties this weekend at Donington Park, recently stated about the aforementioned topic:
“Dymag plays a key role in the racing world. Its 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 Super Twin 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.”
He continued:
“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!”
Dymag’s CEO Tom De Lange, issued his delight about forming a partnership with one of international road racing’s ‘Aliens’:
“On behalf of all of us at Dymag, we are delighted to support Peter Hickman on this project with our UP7X lightweight high-performance wheels.”
