Named for the god of wind. Engineered to outsmart him.
Aeolus, god of wind, is both friend and foe. He doles out tailwinds, headwinds, and crosswinds in equal measure. His power is the inspiration behind every pair of Aeolus wheels, and the reason why we’ve spent over 25 years engineering ways to outsmart him.
Using our industry leading OCLV Carbon layup process and state-of-the-art aerodynamics modeling, we developed a complete lineup of wheels with proven, stable designs that deliver free speed at ultra-low weights. Multiple levels of performance and pricing ensure there’s lots of options for dedicated racers, avid riders, and weekend warriors.
Raced by Lidl-Trek
We work closely with the pros of Lidl-Trek to develop gear that helps them ride faster and more confidently on race day. And it’s not just the pros who benefit from this relationship. Athlete input makes products like Aeolus RSL wheels–our lightest, fastest, and most stable wheels ever–better for every rider.
The Aeolus carbon wheel family
Aeolus RSL 37
An ultralight 37mm rim profile for climbing performance and more speed in sprints.
Upgrading to carbon wheels is the single biggest performance boost you can give your bike. They’re lighter and more responsive than alloy wheels, which gives you more free speed, better acceleration, and a ride quality that’s unmatched. Plus, Bontrager carbon wheels are warrantied for life and come with the best support in the industry. Ride with confidence day in and day out, knowing you’ve chosen wheels with proven performance designed to go the distance, fast.
Real speed
All Aeolus wheels feature aerodynamic profiles designed to slice through the wind and bring more speed and confidence to your ride. Upgrade to Aeolus and let the god of wind unleash the power of free speed.
OCLV Carbon
Our proprietary carbon manufacturing process delivers wheels that are the perfect blend of light weight, strength, and stiffness for unparalleled performance on every ride.
Carbon wheels can lighten your ride and improve your performance — and when you ride Bontrager, your investment is protected. All Bontrager carbon wheels are backed by a lifetime warranty for the original owner.
Every set of Bontrager carbon wheels is backed by the Carbon Care Wheel Loyalty Program. In the unlikely event that you damage your Bontrager carbon wheels within the first two years of ownership, we’ll repair or replace them for free.
The newest Aeolus Pro 37V and 49V are made with OCLV NEXT — a next-gen thermoplastic carbon fiber material that eliminates brittle epoxies and makes for a smoother, faster, and overall more durable wheel all while being friendlier on the planet.
Tubeless ready
All Aeolus wheels are tubeless compatible and engineered as a system to work smoothly together, for the best in performance and ease of use.
30-Day Unconditional Guarantee
Ride them and love them, but if you don't, you can return them to a participating Trek retailer within 30 days of purchase for a full refund.
Your guide to the Aeolus lineup
Aeolus offers a complete lineup of carbon wheels in multiple depths to suit any budget. There’s an Aeolus wheelset for you no matter the level of performance you need or the type of riding you do.
Aeolus RSL
We built the all-new Aeolus RSL wheels in pursuit of ultimate speed for every rider. They're the fastest wheels we've ever made, and they're available in a wide-range of depths from 37mm to 75mm to help you be the fastest you, wherever you're chasing speed.
Stronger, smoother, and faster — Aeolus V wheels are constructed to account for wider volume tires (hence the “V” in their name). They’re made to support larger road and gravel tires for more traction and stability, even at lower pressures.
Pro models combine our high-end tech with a high-value build. Look for the light and fast 37mm depth or the even speedier 50mm depth. They’re also available in a higher volume version that’s great for larger gravel tires.
