Weight reduction was for the first time the main goal here instead of design and optical considerations. The engineers succeeded in achieving a further weight reduction of up to 20% whilst improving the stability of the wheel at the same time. A forged aluminium front wheel sized at 3.5 x 17'' e.g. for a Ducati 998R now weighs only 3.3 kg completely ready for fitting. The weight optimisation is even more striking for the back wheels: In this case for example the 6 x 17'' wheel of a Yamaha R1 was reduced to slightly more than 5 kg.
