Aerodynamics without the usual weight penalty

The AERO 55 Hyperlight combines a deep 55 mm rim profile with an exceptionally low system weight of just 1,130 g. It is engineered for riders who want the aerodynamic advantage of a high-profile wheelset without giving up the direct acceleration and lively handling usually associated with much shallower rims.

Built from high-grade Toray T800 carbon, the system delivers stiffness, control and efficiency in a platform designed for high-speed road performance.

The result is a wheelset that feels fast not only once the speed is high, but also every time you accelerate.

AERO MEETS HYPERLIGHT

With its 55 mm rim depth, the AERO 55 Hyperlight is designed to reduce aerodynamic drag and maintain speed more efficiently on fast roads, rolling terrain and race courses.

At just 1,130 g, it remains exceptionally light for a wheelset of this depth. That low rotational mass helps preserve fast acceleration, responsive handling and efficient climbing performance.

This combination creates a rare balance: the aerodynamic benefit of a deep-section wheel with the responsiveness of a much lighter climbing-oriented system.

Optimized for modern tyres

With a 23.5 mm internal width and 30 mm external width, the rim is optimized for modern 28–32 mm road tyres. The geometry supports a stable tyre profile, precise handling and controlled behaviour at higher speeds.

The deeper 55 mm profile adds aerodynamic efficiency while maintaining a balanced and predictable ride feel.

Next generation hubs – BikeBeat HyperLight

At the core of the system sits the BikeBeat HyperLight Ratchet Ceramic hub, engineered for low friction, high durability and full serviceability.

Ceramic bearings reduce rolling resistance and ensure smooth, efficient rotation under load.

Durability through serviceability

Every component is designed to be replaceable and maintainable over time. Spokes, bearings, hub components and freehub bodies are available as individual spare parts.

This ensures long-term usability and keeps the system ride-ready for many seasons.

Built for speed

While technically suitable for Allroad and light Gravel use, the AERO 55 Hyperlight is primarily engineered for fast road riding. It excels in racing, fast training sessions, rolling terrain and high-speed scenarios where aerodynamic efficiency becomes increasingly important.

The 55 mm rim profile helps maintain speed, while the exceptionally low 1,130 g system weight ensures the wheelset remains responsive when the road rises or the pace changes.

Deep-section speed without deep-section weight

Many 55 mm wheelsets deliver aerodynamic performance but carry a significant weight penalty. The AERO 55 Hyperlight takes a different approach.

At just 1,130 g, it combines deep-section aerodynamics with an ultra-light system architecture – giving you speed on the flat, responsiveness under acceleration and efficiency when climbing.
