Durability
Being extra light and exceptionally durable JB-Power products represent the cutting edge in engine technology, made of the best material possible, to ensure peak performance.
The Research and Development for the world’s first commercially available forged magnesium wheel “JB-POWER MAGTAN” began in 1995 and was successfully commercialized in 1999. It is significantly lighter than its aluminum competitors as the weight of magnesium is about two-thirds that of aluminum. First, a preheated lump of high-strength magnesium is forged to billed with ultra-high pressure by an 8000t press. Then the rim section’s basic shape is achieved by a process called spinning (roll forging). Creating the final shape includes several machining steps on all surfaces and is executed with the latest CNC lathes and milling machinery.
JB-POWER MAGTAN has been successfully adopted by Suzuki and Kawasaki in the MotoGP as well as by various SuperBike Championship teams and established a firm position in the world of racing. Our revolutionary MAGTAN wheels improve the turning characteristics, the road following capability, brake stability and reduce fuel consumption. Additionally, newly developed materials, heat treatment, and rust prevention technology provide excellent shock absorption as well as significantly enhanced product lifetime under normal conditions. State of the art manufacturing technology and passion evolved JB-POWER MAGTAN to a “dreamlike” wheel of ultra-high rigidity, precision, extraordinary lightness, and ageless grace that offers ongoing satisfaction to its users.
