Designed to bring true Aero to the masses no other Alloy wheel a this price point offers as much aerodynamic performance as the A 1800
20mm internal width rims are the first alloy rim profile developed with DT's Aero research team at Swiss Side, no other alloy rim has had more in-depth aero testing both in terms of CFD simulations and Wind Tunnel time
The rim is of course only part of the equation and the AR 1600's use bladded Aero Comp spokes and hidden nipples to further minimise drag
370 hubs with an 18-tooth ratchet LN system bring unparalleled hub quality to this price point
The Swiss-made DT ratchet system remains the gold standard for reliability, low-weight and ease of servicing, which is why it's relied upon everywhere from the Tour De France to the World Cup Downhill circuit
Hand built in Europe using Swiss-made spokes for a carefully tuned blend of stiffness and low weight, premium Prolock Squorx nipples are used for long term build stability and ease of maintenance
Tubeless ready but can also be used with standard clinchers
