If you enjoy climbing, you can still benefit from an aero advantage. What you might want to do is combine an aero advantage with a lightweight set of wheels. Our Aero 45 with DT Swiss hubs are the perfect wheel for your lightweight disc braked hill killing machine.
Like all of our Aero range, the 45 is constructed from a mix of Toray T700 and T800 carbon fiber. The mix of carbon fiber has allowed our tubeless ready 45mm deep rim to become around 100g lighter than our previous Fast and Light series.
The rim, as you would hope, features the new faster wide, blunt shape. A shape the helps to guide the air around your tire and wheel, not breaking it up on the junction between your tire and wheel. The design helps to lower drag, and this will give you an aero advantage on the flat and longer more draggy climbs that don’t have huge ramps.
To help you transfer your power when you’re climbing, we offer you a choice of Centerlock disc brake hubs from DT Swiss. You can pick from the lighter 240S or, the more cost-effective 350S. Both hubs feature the famous DT Swiss quality, and both come in a thru axle format. Rear hubs are always 12 x 142mm, and you can pick from a front in 15 x 100mm or 12 x100mm.
We’ll then lace your wheel using your choice of Sapim CX-Ray spokes. The aero CX-Ray spokes are the perfect partner to our rim as they stiff, strong, and super light.
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.
