Przemek : I had a couple of quality wheelsets in the past, but I don't think any of these matches my AR565's. You can immediately tell the carbon rim is of exceptionally high standards and the build is nothing short of spectacular. The same can be said about the whole customer experience, including the broad selection of options and very friendly staff, which helps with making the right choice and is happy to take additional requests. The wheelset is very robust, fast and stiff - but still lighweight! I like the no access holes option. Makes running tubeless setups even easier. The finish is stunning. And Carbon Ti hub sound is a music to my ears :) Thank you Light Bicycle!

Roman : Went for a mullet custom setup for my Aethos. AR465 at the front, and AR565 at the back. Currently set up non tubeless, but will eventually hop over if thermoplastic tubes don't feel compliant and reliable. Wheels came in perfect, production as stated takes a while, but the marble weave finish is just nuts. Definitely wouldn't work for ANY bike, but for an organic/classic frameset like Aethos - looks beautiful imho.

I'm interested in the AR565. Are they available in a matte finish? And if yes, do you have an example picture how it would look?


LightBicycle 2023/03/09

Hi Niels, Yes, the AR565 700C disc is available in a matte finish. But we do not have AR565 matte finish pictures. We can share pictures of the AR465 matte finish for your ref. Please check your email. Thanks, Lightbicycle
