About this product

The details.

The ultimate road wheel

Faster. Lighter. More stable. The ultralight Aeolus RSL 37 is the ultimate carbon road wheel for climbs, crits, and classics. RSL-level OCLV Carbon is lighter and stronger, allowing for a faster, more stable 37mm rim profile that is lighter than shallower

All Bontrager carbon wheels are warrantied for life for the original purchaser and come with the added protection of Carbon Care. If you damage your wheels while riding in the first two years of ownership, we'll replace them. It’s that easy.

DT with Ratchet EXP hubs
The all-new lighter-weight Ratchet EXP freehubs are built with proven DT Swiss 240s internals for consistent engagement and a smooth, fast-rolling feel.
05
Tubeless Ready
Easily set your wheelset up tubeless with Bontrager TLR rim strips or use a rim tape system for the lightest setup possible.

Warrantied for life
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.

What reviewers are saying.

“There’s no denying the liveliness of a wheelset this light”
We’re at the mercy of the winds up here. But the wheels don’t seem to notice. We roll along almost oblivious to crosswinds

“Duly impressed”
They track the ground well, a testament to their stiffness, but they don’t feel punishing, either

“You just go where you want without holding back”
I immediately felt light, almost too light and I worried I’d get pushed around in the winds. Didn’t happen.
