The AR60 is Reynolds' 60mm-deep carbon aero road wheelset, built around the idea that an aero wheel doesn't have to mean a narrow rim or a punishing ride. The 60mm depth is genuinely deep enough to matter aerodynamically, while the wider modern rim shape is built to work with today's wider tubeless road tyres rather than the narrow tyres deep-section wheels were originally designed around.
It's built on a 21mm internal rim width, tubeless-ready and optimised for a 28mm tyre (comfortably accommodating a wider range around that), with 24 spokes front and rear on a Reynolds/Ringle SRX Road hub. This is the disc-brake version, running 12mm thru-axles front and rear rather than quick-release, and it ships with a Shimano HG freehub installed and a SRAM XDR freehub included in the box, so it's ready for either drivetrain out of the gate.
In practice, this is the wheelset for a rider who wants a genuine aero upgrade on a disc-brake road bike - fast enough to matter on flat and rolling terrain, without needing to run narrow tyres to get there.
Why You'll Like It
A real aero depth: 60mm carbon rims are deep enough to deliver a genuine aerodynamic benefit on flat and rolling roads.
Built for modern wide tyres: the 21mm internal width and tubeless-ready rim are designed around a 28mm tyre, not the narrow tyres older deep-section wheels assumed.
Freehub flexibility out of the box: ships with a Shimano-compatible freehub installed and a SRAM XDR freehub included, so a drivetrain swap doesn't mean buying a new freehub separately.
Thru-axle security: 12mm thru-axles front and rear give a stiffer, more secure wheel-to-frame connection than a quick-release disc setup.
Who Is It For?
Riders with a disc-brake road bike who want a genuine aero upgrade over a shallower alloy or entry carbon wheelset - club riders, racers, or anyone doing regular flat-to-rolling group rides where aerodynamics actually matter.
It also suits BOTS customers building up a race or fast-group-ride bike in India, where the wider tubeless-ready rim pairs well with the wider tyres increasingly run on Indian roads for comfort and puncture resistance.
Good to Know
- Set up tubeless with tape and sealant rated for a 21mm internal rim width for the best seal.
- Run the freehub that matches your drivetrain - Shimano/SRAM HG comes fitted, with a SRAM XDR freehub included in the box if you need it.
- A 28mm tyre is the sweet spot for this rim's aero and comfort balance, though a reasonable range either side works well too.
