Disc brakes on road bikes are now part of the landscape. Want to make that new disc-equipped machine a little faster...?
Bontrager's Aeolus Pro 3 Disc wheels can be a significant upgrade to your machine, adding exceptional aerodynamics, very light weight and proven durability. The rim itself is constructed of Trek's exclusive OCLV carbon fiber material, ensuring very light weight and reliability over many miles. The 35mm rim profile isn't the usual pointy-ended shape, but has a more bullet-like profile. Called Dual Directional Design (or D3 for short), this rim shape helps keep the Aeolus Pro 3 stable in crosswinds as well as cleaving through the air effectively. The rim's 19.5mm inner width allow a wider road tire to produce a more circular contact patch on the pavement, reducing rolling resistance as well as improving cornering grip and ride quality. Tubelss-ready tires are accommodated with included TLR rim strips and gasketed TLR valve stems. Regular rim strips are also included. The brake discs (sold separately) are installed using a centerlock format, and the 24-point freehub engagement boasts long service life. Both front and rear wheels are built with 24 bladed DT Swiss spokes each, making the Aeolus Pro 3's ready for headwinds, hard roads and hard braking. The hubs can be swapped from quick-release skewers to thru-axles with swappable end caps (sold separately).
