Reynolds has truly upgraded their Aero wheel options and the Aero 65 Carbon Wheelset is primed for road race, triathlon, rolling TT's, even cyclocross. Weighing in just under 1600 grams, with a 19mm internal width tubeless ready rim design, superior aerodynamic design, and a new Industry Nine hubset, the 65mm profile wheelset was born to fly, with improved ride quality and overall stability. This impressive wheelset carries advanced Reynolds rim, aero, and braking technology that set it apart in this price point. Now you can choose the Aero 65 Carbon to set yourself apart, off the front, or ahead of the clock.

Reynolds uses a shallow bed rim design and tubeless tape for excellent tubeless set-up and reliability. For the rim construction, the PR6 concept is applied, meaning there are six different zones (sidewall, brake track, hook bead, rim bed, rim channel, spoke face) that each get the appropriate type and amount of carbon fiber, resin and epoxy for the loads and stresses of each zone. This process works to achieve the perfect tensile strength, stiffness and elongation the 65mm deep rim. Again, the internal width is 19mm, and the widest external width is 28mm. The bow shape of the rim is defined by the aerodynamics at play. Reynolds uses the same DET™ system employed in their top-end RZR wheels. Dispersive Effect Termination smooths turbulent, excited, energized airflow and re-attaches it to the aerodynamic surface, effectively reducing aerodynamic drag, and reducing buffering at yaw angles of side widewinds, keeping the wheels more stable in such conditions, and continually gaining energy and speed from the re-attachment process. The overall effect is a fast, stable wheel that keeps the rider focused on power output and the road ahead, and not the conditions.

Speed and stability are one thing, but braking and emergency stopping is equally crucial to race success. CTg is an acronym for Cryogenic Glass Transition and the rim's brake surface is comprised of very specific carbon and resin combinations to help dissipate heat at the exterior of the rim surface to enhance braking performance. Testing shows this reduces heat buildup by 53%, which keeps the inside of the rim much cooler than the exterior, essential for performance and safety. Proprietary Cryo-Blue Power brake pads are included with the wheelset and work in conjunction with the brake track to deliver the powerful, consistent braking while keeping things cool. The most substantial advantage is found when running tubeless, as even the best heat dissipation can ultimately cause butyl tube damage on a long controlled descent. Running larger volume tubeless tires at slightly lower overall pressure almost completely takes overheating out of the equation, meaning you an use the braking style and protocol that suits you best, without worry over the rim-tire interface overheating. CTg is highly effective with a tube, let alone without it. Reynolds also works to keep you safe long term by adding a brake wear indicator line within the track at the valve hole on both sides of the rim. If the red line shows through, your rim must be replaced, and given the overall build quality, you may be using these wheels for years.

The addition of the Industry Nine built hubset to the Aero 65 Carbon is welcome. The smooth aero shapes of the machined alloy shells, super clean straight pull spoke access, and incredible freehub engagement that I9 is known for all speak to the overall quality of the wheelset. Bearings are buttery smooth and durable long term. The rapid engagement freehub system is interchangeable, so you have options moving forward. Reynolds opted for the black stainless steel Sapim lightly bladed CX-Ray straight pull spokes. The internal nipples feature a hex head design for sure tensioning and truing under high force load. The front wheel has 18 spokes, laced radial, which disappear into both the rim and the hub. The rear features 24 spokes, and both sides are laced two cross for excellent even tension and rapid acceleration, while taking the sting out of rear wheel impact.

With the Reynolds Aero 65 Carbon Wheelset you get two 85mm tubeless valves, the tubeless rim tape, 100/130mm quick release skewers, Cryo-Blue Power brake pads, and wheelbags. This wheelset is positioned to challenge the top mid-section wheels on the market, with technology, capability, proven aerodynamics, excellent build quality, overall weight- all at a very competitive price point. The Aero 65 Carbon is an impressive tubeless ready wheelset with broad application and excellent performance and we recommend it to any road race cyclist or triathlete that seeks to maximize their potential and race experience.
