If you fancy yourself as a powerful rouleur, and after all, who doesn’t? Then our Aero 55 DT Swiss will be the perfect disc brake road wheel for you. These wheels have been designed to help you power away; they won’t flex as you put out big watts, they’ll just help you distance everyone. These wheels will help you to become a breakaway artist.

Our Aero wheel range is a step up from our Fast and Light wheel range. The Aero range takes our tubeless ready Fast and Light rim shape and makes it lighter, around 100g per wheelset. We lost the weight and kept all the same great Fast and Light qualities by mixing Toray T700 and T800 carbon fiber.

The 55mm deep shape on Aero 55 is a modern blunt aero shape; it helps to guide the air around your wheel. To further increase the aero efficiency of our wheel rim, we have gone with a wider shape. The wider shape allows your tires to meet the edge of the rim in a way that helps to stop the airflow from detaching and becoming drag.

When ordering a set of Aero 55 wheels, you’ll be given a choice of two disc brake ready DT Swiss hubs. You can pick from the lighter 240S or, the more affordable 350S. Whichever hubset you pick you’ll be benefitting from DT Swiss’ famous quality and ease of maintenance.

Attaching your choice of hub to our carbon fiber rim will be a set of Sapim CX-Ray spokes. These aero spokes are super light, but they are still super strong and are the choice of many professional racers.

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.
