Thanks!! Definitely more video’s coming. I have Part ll in the works with some real world ride experience on the wheels. To date- I have about 600miles on the wheels, 🙂 *More2Follow #RobbArmstrong
Hope you're enjoying the wheels! I also have the 51s, bought mine last summer. Drove 5 hours to get my hands on a set. Love them- instant love. I couldn't believe how quiet they were on my first ride out- just the hum of the tire. Converted them to tubeless for this riding season with the Bontrager R3 and upgraded to the 36T ratchet. The lower pressure soaks up all the imperfections in the road and gives you a buttery smooth ride.
Hey. Robb thanks for responding to my previous consern.regarding the quiet ness of my bontrager aelious wheel set .thanks i well discuss the rachet idea with my bike shop. RK
The GP5000 is such a good tire! Hopefully I can finish the new build this week and start putting some miles on it! I’m SUPER excited for it to be complete ✅ 🚴💨 #RobbArmstrong

Hi i have the same wheel coming this week and size 30mm tires, can you please send the link of the latex tubes you have and what sized valves you have. Thank you
YES!! I have some new tires that will be here this week. Once I get them installed I’ll do a follow-up video and talk ride/road feedback. My wheel build has the 54T 🙂though, Vs. the 36T ratchet. #RobbArmstrong
I just ordered a set of these for my Emonda. I wanted the ZIPP wheels but it’s hard to find them in stock. I’m also going to change out the star ratchet as well. Thanks for that tip!
😮 The Red/Blk colorway is 🔥 I don’t have Zipp wheels, 👀 Jus the decals on the Pro 51s, but they look GOOD! I’ve been getting a lot of compliments on them. 🙂 #RobbArmstrong
Excellent review. I have a question though regarding the ratchets in the rsl series if you know anything about those ones? Would I need to upgrade the ratchets in those so the wheel would catch quicker?
@@RobbArmstrong1 The all-new lighter-weight Ratchet EXP freehubs are built with proven DT Swiss 240s internals for consistent engagement and a smooth, fast-rolling feel. That’s all it says.
Really looking forward to it !!!!😅😅😅

No problem! 🙂 I did the DT Swiss 54T Star Ratchet upgrade on mines and my wheels SCREAM NOW!! Absolutely love it, 😎
#RobbArmstrong
Great video! I just got the same wheels and I upgrade to ratchet ASAP! Love the sound of 54T!
It’s a good buy!! & nothing beats the 54T sound! 😎
Got my set yesterday. Im also going to upgrade the ratchet. Hooked them up with gp5000 30 mm. Safe riding
The GP5000 is such a good tire!
Hopefully I can finish the new build this week and start putting some miles on it! I’m SUPER excited for it to be complete ✅ 🚴💨

I like the tan wall tires, any recommendations on how to keep them "tan"?
Actually made a whole Video about that, 👀

Can you share where I can get the 36 or 54t upgrade kit ? I have the same wheels and don’t like how quiet they are either .
Of course! The Amazon link is in the description of the Video, 🙂

Yes the Zipp NSW’s ARE NICE‼️ But they do cost. I’m very happy with my 51s, absolutely zero complaints.

I picked up my tubes from my local bike shop. They are Vittoria latex tubes. The stems are 42mm but I’m running extenders.
@@RobbArmstrong1 thank you
How about the warranty if you upgrade the ratchet?
The warranty of what? Ratchet or Wheels? 🤔
#RobbArmstrong
The wheels
The warranty should be fine regardless.
#RobbArmstrong
hey robb great vid on the bontrager Aeolus 51 pro .the only thing i dont like about them is their so damn quiet
🤣🤣 Yes, when you first get them they’re *Super quiet. Do the DT Swiss upgrade and that’ll wake them up 📢
#RobbArmstrong
Great video my friend. Is this a raod only wheel? Of I can do a little gravel on it? Thanks keep it up.
Much appreciated, 🙏🏾 I don’t see why you couldn’t use it for Gravel, 🤔
#RobbArmstrong
Hey Robb, I'm currently riding the Pro 51's. Will you be doing an update on your Pro 51 with the 36 rachet upgrade?
YES!! I have some new tires that will be here this week. Once I get them installed I’ll do a follow-up video and talk ride/road feedback. My wheel build has the 54T 🙂though, Vs. the 36T ratchet.

Hi nice video. How are the wheels holding up?
The wheels HAVE BEEN GREAT! I have about 600miles on them, 🙂 currently have some tubeless tires otw. Looking forward to the upgrade!
#RobbArmstrong
Excellent review. I have a question though regarding the ratchets in the rsl series if you know anything about those ones? Would I need to upgrade the ratchets in those so the wheel would catch quicker?
Do you know what kind of hub it has? If it’s a DT Swiss I believe the stock ratchet is 18T. The 18T has 20% of play before engagement.
#RobbArmstrong
@@RobbArmstrong1 it says 180 front and 240 rear for those.
I’m not sure, which ratchet system your wheels come with. 🤷🏽♂️
@@RobbArmstrong1 I’ll look up more info and let you know. It’s the rsl 51s by bontrager.

Nice video . How much did you pay for the wheel set ?
Thanks 🙂 $1125 Wheelset/160mm Rotors + $150 Vittoria 30s + $40 Vittoria latex tubes = $1315 for the total package 📦 #RobbArmstrong
Hi i just purchase these wheels can you provide the ratchet 36 t upgrade part no. thanks
I upgraded to the 54T ratchet and I picked it up from Amazon, 🙂
#RobbArmstrong
Robb the baby powder in the inner side of tire difineyly work
YES IT DOES!! My local Bike Shop guy “Brad” provided that tip to me and it works! 👈🏽
#RobbArmstrong
I could have got these wheels for 750 usd and used for just 50km but I was slow so someone else bought it.
Oh wow!! 😮 $750 would have been a GREAT deal, then upgrade the ratchet system. That’s a WinWin 🏆
