40mm deep rims are great for those of us that live in windy places or who enjoy climbing. They have enough of an aero advantage to give you a boost, and they’re also light enough to suit that lightweight climbing bike you have. Our Aero 20 with Centerlock disc brake DT Swiss hubs are the perfect example of a good 40mm deep set of wheels.
To keep the weight down on our Aero 40 wheels we have constructed the rim from Toray T700 and T800 carbon fiber. Toray is the best carbon fiber cloth in the world, so we don’t try and hide that we use it by creating new marketing names for the stuff.
The combination of the cloth allows us to build you a 40mm deep tubeless ready rim that is stiff, strong, and light. The other good news is that you still get the same modern aero shape that you get on our Fast and Light series, but you save around 100g per wheelset.
At the heart of these wheels, you’ll be able to pick from 2 DT Swiss options. You can pick from the lighter 240S or, the more affordable 350S. Both options feature the star ratchet system and thru axles. You’ll find a 12 x 100mm or 15 x 100mm front options, and the rear comes in a 12 x 142mm option, to allow you to have a stiff wheel that stands up to the forces of disc brakes.
To lace the wheels, we have used Sapim CX-Ray spokes. Sapim CX-Ray spokes are some of the lightest on the market, they are one of the most fatigue resistant spokes, and above all, they are aero.
Features
Wide Rim Tech
25mm rim wide creates a better, more stable support, while the shape of the tire and rim together creates regular, stable air flow, in short, more aerodynamics, less attrition. provides an ideal basis for 25/28mm tires, the sizes currently popular.
2-Way Clincher Tubeless. Tubes or No-Tubes
Use either traditional tires with tubes, or tubeless tires without tubes. Tubeless tires can provide lower rolling resistance and better protection from punctures.
Sapim CX-RAY As light as a titanium spoke
The CX-Ray still receives the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. The CX-Ray aero spoke combines excellent aerodynamics with low weight and great strength. Not only are they more aerodynamic, they also make wheels lighter and stronger. Its unique strength and flexibility make the CX-Ray suitable for most bicycle disciplines. CX-Ray spokes are used by top bike racers and triathletes around the world.
