Aero road wheelset
ERE Research Genus II AE65-R Carbon Disc Wheelset
ERE's 65mm aero road wheelset in its lighter R form, using Sapim Aero Carbon spokes and Panama SL hubs to bring the pair down to 1,538g. A deep, fast option for racing and quick group rides.
Highlights
Why we rate it
Carbon spokes
The R version swaps to Sapim Aero Carbon spokes, saving weight over the standard AE65 while keeping the build stiff under power.
2:1 lacing
21 spokes per wheel in a 2:1 pattern balance the drive and brake sides for even tension and solid power transfer.
65mm aero rims
Deep full-carbon rims with a 30mm external and 21mm internal width suit modern 26-32mm road tyres.
Tubeless ready
Rims come taped and are hooked, so you can run tubeless or a standard clincher with inner tubes.
Frankenstrat finish
Laser-etched logos and a graphic nod to Eddie Van Halen's famous guitar set them apart from plain black wheels.
