Aeolus RSL 65X is the ultimate carbon road wheelset for speed, weight, and stability. The X stands for a deeper front rim with a shallower rear β maximizing aerodynamic gains up front while keeping weight low and handling sharp out back. Add in carbon spokes, optimization for 28mm tires, and ceramic bearings, and you get a wheelset built to go fast and finish first.
All Bontrager carbon wheels are warrantied for life for the original purchaser and come with the added protection of Carbon Care. If you structurally damage your wheels while riding in the first two years of ownership, we'll replace them. Itβs that easy.
