DT Swiss ARC 1100 DICUT 80mm Clincher Front Wheel - Rim Brake

DT Swiss ARC 1100's are quite simply the new benchmark in carbon racing wheels, against the clock or shoulder to shoulder, there's nothing you'd rather roll up to the start line on

Available in, 80mm this wheel offers the perfect balance of weight and absolute speed. Working extensively with JP Ballard and his team at the GST wind tunnel in Immenstaad, Germany, DT have broken new ground in aerodynamic analysis by being the first to develop a method to accurately measure rotational drag. Translational drag is created by moving the wheel forward but 25% of all drag is generated by the wheel itself turning, it is this, rotational drag that JP's team developed a whole new methodology to measure and then develop new ways to minimise it. The result are wheels that outperform the equivalent depth competition on every level, please visit DTSwiss.com for more technical data on how this was achieved

Why 'only' 17 mm wide? Because after testing hundreds of rim and tyre combinations, it's proven to be the fastest, if you want wider, our PRC and ERC ranges have you covered. With 15% of a wheel's drag coming from the hub, DT went back to the drawing board and developed the most aerodynamic road disc hub on the market, equipped with SiNC ceramic bearings and a 36-tooth ratchet, these are fastest road disc hubs available.

DT's premium Aerolite nailhead spokes allow for a super clean hub design, further reducing rotational drag

For those looking to use the latest tyre tech the ARC 1100's come tubeless ready but can also be used with standard clinchers, we recommend 23 or 25c for optimum aero performance
