James : Sharing with you a nice shot taken recently in early morning. The wheels look good even in low light!

Jeffrey : I bought two pairs of LightBicycle AR35 DT240 wheels and have used them for several years on my road bike and cyclocross bikes. They are very light and fast wheels, and I am very impressed with the quality and design. When I first received the wheels I measured the spoke tensions and found that they were very consistent, unlike a different off-brand carbon wheelset I previously purchased. I had some concerns with using carbon clinchers in cyclocross due to the low tire pressures and potential impact with roots/rocks, but the wheels have held up great for two full race seasons and show no signs of wobbling even with ocassional rim-strikes. I'll definitely be picking up at least one more set for my backup CX bike!

Dan : I’m patiently waiting for delivery of my 3rd set of LB wheels. My AM set has over 4K miles, my gravel set has over 2K and is flawless. No spoke holes = No rim tape! So reliable. I’ll never order from anyone else again because no one else can do within without spoke holes!

Gary : Hey folks, here's a picture of my recent trip up to Mt Mitchell, NC, highest point east of the Rocky Mtn's in the US. The climb is around 30 miles, 6800 feet of climbing from the nearest town. I'm sporting my AR35 Flyweight DT Swiss 180 hubs, with SRAM XDR hub, flawless performance, smoothness, fast and a mere 1240 grams. Recently completed a 450 mile trip in 5 days through the Southern part of the US as well, MS, AL and TN. Love my LB wheelset ..

Aaron 2021/09/25

Good evening, I'm interested in getting a wheelset from your team, and was hoping for guidance on the best choice. 1. I ride mainly road, a bit of gravel. Mostly for fun but bit of racing triathlon. 2. Heavy rider - I'm 105 kg. 3. Steel (Soma Fogcutter) frame - not thru-axle, standard quick release. 4. Shimano 105 groupset, hydraulic disc brakes. My preference would be for DT Swiss 350 hubs, but not sure if they do quick-release. I was looking at the AR35. What are the best options? Thanks, Aaron


LightBicycle 2021/09/26

Hi Aaron, 1. AR35 is a good choice for 700C gravel riding. It's light and aero. What would be the tires you run with? 2. Our max limit for riders is 135kg for the standard version AR35. So I would say go with the standard version for your bike. 3. I read on Soma's website that the Fog Cutter is with thru-axle dropouts. Can you confirm that you want standard QR hubs? The most common QR hubs for road disc bike is 100mm*QR front and 135mm\*QR rear. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Hi, Could you please provide a quote for a set of AR35 Falcon Pro wheels shipped TPD tax pre-paid to the UK, with Bitex hubs, black brass nipples, CX-Rays, no rim holes, no decals, normal warranty and no extras. Thanks in advance, Euan


LightBicycle 2021/06/28

Hi Euan, The cost for one AR35-28mm wheelset 700C road disc to the UK is USD183. The AR35's production time is around 14-16 weeks. Are you sure you are ok to wait? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Marzio 2020/09/30

I'm very interested by the AR35 disc Flyweight wheel model. Are them suitable for road bike with a 73 kg rider? Thanks and best regards


LightBicycle 2020/10/01

Hi Sir, Thanks for your inquiry! For your weight 73kg, it is okay to go for AR35 flyweight road disc. What is your bike? Do you ride aggressively? Thanks, Lightbicycle

Marzio 2020/10/01

Hallo My bike is a BMC Roadmachine 01 three from 2018. I do not think to ride aggressively, I don't do races. I do 7000-8000km per years with 100000m of climb. I do practically only asphalt with a lot of climb and down hill. This is the reason why I'm looking for a light wheight pair of wheels. best regards Marzio


LightBicycle 2020/10/02

Hi Marzio, ​ Thanks for your reply! If it is okay for you to go for flyweight version 24H. Do you like rims only or complete wheelset? If it is complete AR35 wheelset 700C disc , what hubs and spokes do you prefer? Thanks, Lightbicycle ​

Sebastien 2020/10/01

I am 63kg doing a lot of climbing with good power.Would the AR35 flyweight road disc be adequate or would I need to stick to the normal ones ?


LightBicycle 2020/10/02

Hi Sir, Thanks for your inquiry!For your weight 63kg, it is okay to ride AR35 flyweight version road disc. But standard version is more durable, it is with more carbon fiber material. Thanks, Lightbicycle

I cerchi hanno i fori e quindi sono tubeless ready con il nastro o hanno solo il foro valvola?


LightBicycle 2020/06/04

Puoi scegliere se ci sono o meno fori di accesso parlato sui cerchioni. I fori delle valvole saranno sempre lì. Puoi saperne di più sui cerchi senza foro in questo post che abbiamo pubblicato. https://www.lightbicycle.com/newsletter/TUBELESS-READY-OR-TUBELESS-RIMS--WHAT-S-BEST-FOR-ME.html Thanks, Lightbicycle

Andrea 2020/05/28

Molto interessanti, vorrei un preventivo di costo con spedizione in Italia , prepayed duty Grazie


LightBicycle 2020/05/28

Hi Grazie, Sì, possiamo spedire cerchioni / ruote in Italia. Data la situazione attuale, consiglio vivamente di scegliere il TPD (Tax Prepaid Delivery) per la spedizione in Italia. Il costo sarebbe di USD156 per un set di ruote e USD89 per 2 cerchi. Non devi pagare per l'imposta nel processo. Puoi effettuare l'ordine online e verificare l'opzione di spedizione durante la procedura di pagamento. Grazie

Muhammed 2020/05/21

Is the AR35 Pro Wheelset on your website using the latest rim that you feature on the front page? Also, I know getting no holes in the rim will make tubeless easier, is there an advantage to getting holes?


LightBicycle 2020/05/21

Hi Sir, It is okay to manufacture this road disc wheelset without holes. It is better for tubeless-ready. But it will be hard for replacement spokes/nipples in future if you are not experience in wheelbuilding. Thanks, Lightbicycle
