DT Swiss ARC 1100 Dicut 62 disc 28 rear wheel 12x142mm Shimano/SRAM- freewheel

If you get the chance to do it all over again, why should you do it now? With the new dominance of disc brake technology and wider tubeless tires on racing bikes, the starting point for the design of racing bikes and wheels has changed significantly. Freed from the installation restrictions of rim brakes, DT Swiss has redesigned, constructed and implemented a wheel with all its components so that it is precisely optimized for one thing: controlled speed.

Speed creates adrenaline that we all love and strive for. It is the desired trait that is central to aero road cycling. But what use is speed without controlled handling?

Control is an often underestimated quality and a prerequisite for fast road cycling. The controlled handling was already taken into account in the AERO + concept during the development of the ERC impeller. Being in control means that there is a recognizable and predictable connection between one's own behavior and the consequences of that behavior.

The new ARC wheels follow the consistent further development of DT Swiss's original idea of the AERO + concept.

REBORN FASTER - the new ARC wheels are the culmination of an extensive product development process that optimizes the performance of aerodynamic wheels and makes aero, time trial and triathlon wheels even faster.

The AERO + concept forms the balance between the sometimes contradicting demands on speed and handling. AERO + is the symbiosis of air resistance, handling and efficiency.

The scientific parameters are taken into account here:

Translational and rotational resistance

Rolling resistance

Steering torque

The aim of optimizing the above parameters results in the simple higher speed of the cyclist.

• Rim shape optimized according to Swiss Side
• Reduced air resistance (translational drag)
• Improved performance in cross winds and headwinds (drag performance)
• Reduced rotational drag thanks to DT Aerolite II and DT Aero Comp II spokes
• Reduced steering torque in cross winds
• Improved rolling resistance due to larger mouth width (inner width)
• Tubeless ready
• Larger inner width of 20mm for the use of wider tires
• Recommended tire width: 25mm (front) / 28mm (rear)
