Description

Description

Our Bontrager Aeolus Comp TLR road bike wheels come with a 30-day money back guarantee. This allows you to put these strong, aerodynamic wheels through their paces. The Bontrager Aeolus Comp TLR road bike wheels feature all the latest technologies in the cycling world. The Bontrager road bike wheels feature wide 50 mm deep rims with excellent aerodynamics and which are tubeless ready to boot. Tubeless offers a number of clear advantages, such as increased puncture resistance, lower rolling resistance, and an increase in grip and comfort. The lightweight construction means that, contrary to many carbon wheels with aluminium brake tracks, you'll also benefit from their performance up climbs and when accelerating out of corners. When you have a puncture and have added latex to a tubeless tyre, it fills the puncture within seconds.

Technology

• Excellent stopping power combined with great aerodynamics
• Aluminium brake track with a carbon rim construction
• DT Swiss aero spokes 18 front, 24 rear
• Tubeless Ready (TLR)

Compatibility

To be used with Shimano and/or SRAM 9/10/11 speed groupsets.

Delivery includes

• Bontrager Aeolus Comp TLR wheel set
• Bontrager quick release skewers
• Bontrager Rim tape
• 2 x Bontrager Tubeless rim strips
• 2 x Tubeless valves

Assembly

• Cassette remover Shimano or Campagnolo
• (possibly a torque wrench)

Installing a cassette on a wheel is easy if you have the right tools. If you purchase a cassette remover with a Shimano fit, you will be able to mount either a Shimano or Sram cassette on your rear wheel. Please note! For a Campagnolo cassette you need the Campagnolo tool. If you have a Shimano 9/10-speed cassette, first slide the spacer over the body. Then you place the cassette on the body. This can only be done in one way because of the fit of the body. Finally you turn the washer straight on by hand and tighten it with the cassette tool. Cassettes aren’t easily overtightened, but if you want you can use a torque wrench for this.

User tips

• Pay attention to the direction of travel when mounting your tyres
• For Shimano 9/10-speed, do not forget to mount the spacer first before installing the cassette
• Make sure the rim tape is stuck well in the rim

Disappointed

- Steven 22 June 2020

Not what I expected from bontrager. Wheels do not roll as well as I'd thought after reading the description. Even with light tubes and bontrager R4 tyres they seem to struggle to pick up speed on down hill runs. Also when you spin the wheel on the hub it is very quick to come to a stop. Nice looking but the standard you would find on a new bike that you would be looking to upgrade. OK to use as a second set for winter training.

Pros & Cons

Good for winter use only as a second set.
Nice looking
Heavy
Poor rolling resistance
Priced very high for what they are.

Great service from Mantal but disappointed with the wheels.

- Steven 8 June 2020

Wheels are something you would expect on a new bike and you would be looking to upgrade. The wheels are heavy for a aero wheel and for a little bit more money a better aero wheel could be bought. They are roll as well as a marbal in sand and yes after a wash the rims do fill with water. On the plus side is they do look nice are are OK for a spare set of wheels.

Pros & Cons

Look nice
Very very silent
Heavy
Poor rolling resistance
Rims fill with water after a wash
