Torque TEK: striking and powerful
The BST Torque TEK is the counterpart to the more understated Twin TEK. While Twin TEK features an OEM+ design, the Torque TEK makes a bold statement with its distinctive design. This wheel was developed for riders who want not only performance, but also want to make a statement with their motorcycle. The striking spoke design gives every Harley a modern and aggressive look.
Weight: OEM vs. Torque TEK
OEM Harley-Davidson wheels are heavy. A "3.5 x 19” Enforcer front wheel, for example, weighs approximately 11.2 kg. The BST Torque TEK version weighs only 3.5–3.8 kg. The rear wheels are also significantly lighter: an OEM "5.5 x 16” weighs around 11–12 kg, while the BST "5.5 x 18” Torque TEK weighs only 4.3 kg. This means a weight reduction of up to 60%.

Technology & production
Like other BST models, the Torque TEK is manufactured from prepreg carbon fibre, cured in an autoclave under high pressure and temperature. The hubs are made of CNC-machined aluminium (6082 T6), accurate to the nearest hundredth of a millimetre. The result is a wheel that is not only lighter, but also stronger and more durable than OEM.
Safety and certifications
The Torque TEK meets all stringent standards: TÜV, JASO, DOT E and JWL. This makes the wheels suitable for daily use, long touring trips and even track days. Each wheel is individually tested.
Fitment & installation
The Torque TEK is a direct OEM replacement. This means no major modifications are required. OEM brake discs and TPMS sensors fit directly. When ordering, it is important to always check that you select the correct wheel size for your Harley model and model year. We are happy to advise you.
