DT Swiss ARC 1100 WTS 55 mm Clincher Disc Brake Limited Edition Front Wheel

The DT Swiss ARC 1100 WTS 55 mm Clincher Disc Brake Limited Edition Front Wheel is engineered for riders seeking maximum aerodynamic speed, razor-sharp handling, and uncompromising control. Handcrafted in DT Swiss' European facility, this third-generation aero front wheel features a fully proprietary carbon rim developed alongside the aerodynamic experts at Swiss Side and validated in the GST wind tunnel. Featuring a 22 mm internal rim width matched to a hybrid V-shape profile, it is optimised for modern 28 to 30 mm tyres to deliver a deeper aero profile alongside exceptional stability in crosswinds. The refined carbon layup provides a lighter overall build with a flawless finish, while internal carbon layer scanning ensures absolute structural precision for every rim produced.

Advanced Hub Engineering and Wind-Slicing Spokes

At the centre of the wheel is the ultra-light DICUT 180 front hub, featuring ultra-smooth SiNC ceramic bearings designed to reduce friction to an absolute minimum. Laced with DT Aerolite II spokes developed specifically to reduce rotational drag, this front wheel cuts cleanly through the air while maintaining predictable steering response. Fitted with a 12 x 100 mm thru-axle setup and Center Lock disc brake mounting, it integrates seamlessly with modern high-performance road, time trial, and triathlon race bikes. Built to support a maximum system weight of 110 kg, it provides the ideal balance of lightweight agility, compliance, and steering control in demanding race conditions.

The package also includes a high-performance TPU inner tube, tubeless rim tape, a lightweight tubeless valve, and a protective DT Swiss wheel bag for safe transportation. Weighing just 1471 grams per pair for the 55 mm rim depth, it delivers rapid acceleration and exceptional speed retention on any terrain. Complete with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and a 10-year crash replacement scheme, this limited-edition front wheel is the ultimate front-end upgrade for dedicated competitive cyclists.
