The ARC 1400 DICUT 50 is DT Swiss' flagship aero road wheelset for disc brake bikes — a collaboration with aerodynamics specialists Swiss Side that sets a new benchmark for aluminium-free carbon road wheels at this level.

  • 50mm AERO+ carbon rim — tubeless-ready, disc brake only
  • DT Swiss 240 DICUT hub — Ratchet EXP, 12x100mm front / 12x142mm rear
  • XDR freehub body included; compatible with 11-speed road body
  • DT Swiss aero spokes
  • Includes tubeless tape and valves

The AERO+ rim profile was developed in partnership with Swiss Side using computational fluid dynamics and wind tunnel validation. At 50mm depth it provides a strong aerodynamic advantage on flat and rolling terrain while remaining controllable in crosswind conditions. A mild sailing effect in moderate side wind can even assist forward momentum. The rim is tubeless-compatible, disc-brake only, and designed around thru-axle standards for maximum stiffness.

The 240 DICUT hub is DT Swiss' most refined lightweight hub shell, equipped with the Ratchet EXP engagement system — a straight spring, fewer parts and wider bearing spacing compared to the previous generation. The result is a more direct feel, lower maintenance requirements and outstanding long-term durability. The XDR body (SRAM AXS compatible) is supplied as standard; an 11-speed road body can be swapped in. Tubeless tape and valves are included.

DT Swiss provides a 5-year warranty on rims and hubs. Warranty claims for this product should be directed to Tune Cycles. Return the item to us with proof of purchase and we will manage the warranty process with the brand on your behalf.
