Being a leader is not for the faint of heart. The third generation of
ARC reaches a new peak of innovation, with wider inner rim width, now 22
mm, that ideally supports wider tires providing you with grip and
comfort. You will be able to storm ahead with enhanced speed over a long
period.
Three different rim heights, 55, 65, 85 mm, with a unique v-shape allow
for a wider inner width without compromising aerodynamics and weight.
The ARC 1100 DICUT 38, with its 38 mm high rim remains the ultimate
climbing wheelset combining light weight and aero-optimization for a
swift rise to the top. The top-of-the-line 180 DICUT hub with Ratchet
EXP System and SINC ceramic bearings, as well as DT aerolite II spokes
are the final ingredients needed to cross the finish line first. Join
our mission to improve, to keep striving, to get ahead. The lead is
taken, not given.

ARC 1100 DICUT 85
Take the lead of the most prestigious triathlon: when the fastest setup is needed to conquer the most competitive field at your next triathlon or time trial. Ideally suiting both 28/29 and 25/26 mm tires, mount the 26 mm AERO 111 for the best aero performance.
Take the lead of the sprint: their low aero dynamic drag is ideal for all out racing, cutting through the air with speed in the final meters of the sprint to take the win. They will shine on flat and fast roads.
Take the lead of the General Classification: these wheels provide good aerodynamic performance with easy handling. And thanks to their lower weight they are ready to conquer steep climbs on the way.
With a newly developed carbon layup and a rim height of 38 mm, this wheel not only claims the title of lightest wheel in our ARC line, but thanks to its careful aero optimization, also promises a swift rise to the top.
The ARC 1100 DICUT db wheels come as an aero-optimized Wheel Tire System (WTS). For the 55 mm and 65 mm rim heights, they are equipped with the new AERO 111 front tire in a 29 mm width and a Continental GP 5000 STR rear tire in 30 mm.

«It’s always interesting for me to test new products. When it comes to DT Swiss, I know I’ll be working with thoroughly researched and highly reliable wheels. That also means it’s no easy task to improve on an already well performing product. The previous generation set a high bar and yet, I was able to detect clear improvements in my aerodynamic testing. The increased internal width, in line with the industry trend toward wider tires, combined with a notable weight reduction, marks a meaningful step forward. Beyond the scientific testing and data, I’ve also been using the 65 mm wheelset in regular training and performance-focused (read Strava KOM-hunt) rides. While I don’t typically place too much emphasis on subjective feel, I genuinely prefer the ride quality of this latest generation - it simply rides better. For me, the new ARC wheels are an easy recommendation for the Uno-X Mobility teams.»

«The new ARC 1100 38 mm wheels were my go to wheel set for the mountainous days in the Giro. They were the perfect combination of being aerodynamic, lightweight and responsive. The difference in weight is immediately noticeable, especially on the steep climbs such as the Mortirolo. I also feel very stable and secure on the wheels which helped me have confidence on fast descents. Overall I’m really happy with the new product from DT Swiss.»

«DT Swiss wheels have changed my ride experience. I feel more freedom and speed of movement with the wheels underneath me than I ever have before. The wheels accelerate and allow me to surge at will. The stiffness is unmatched. Finally, the sound of the 180 hub makes me excited to get enough speed to freewheel!»

«An ideal wheelset for an Ironman must be aerodynamic and fast. Since the wheel is more controllable and stable in crosswinds, I can now ride a higher rim height, which I used to struggle with.»

«The DT Swiss ARC 1100 DICUT 38 DB wheelset is a really fun set of wheels to use. The low weight combined with the brilliant stiffness makes them super responsive to every bit of pressure that you put through the pedals. Add to that great handling, stability, and a fast wheelset that is decent when compared to deeper competitors and it really is a great overall package.»
