The ARC 1100 SPLINE 38 CS reaches new peaks of engineering excellence,
with carbon spokes that make it the lightest Aero wheelset available.
Every element has been meticulously designed to optimise weight without
compromising performance. The refined carbon spokes reduce weight,
empowering you to conquer climb after climb. At its core is a new SPLINE
hub laced on a 38 mm-high Aero carbon rim, our lightest ever. Produced
using our PURE carbon technology, it ensures that, even when the road
tilts upwards, you won’t have to fear gravity. For less steep gradients,
the aerodynamically optimised profile will propel you to the top faster
than ever before.

The current DT Swiss wheels are tubeless-ready and come with mounted tubeless rim tape and corresponding valves. For conversion, you will need a tubeless-capable tire (optimal: UST) and tire sealant. You can find both at an official dealer. Our How To video will take you through step-by-step assembly.
If you have previously ridden your bike with a tube or if the tape no longer sticks properly to the rim, we recommend that you replace the rim tape as a precaution.
How to attach the tubeless rim tape:
1. Measure the inside width of the rim.
2. The tubeless rim tape should be approx. 2 mm wider than the rim and can be bought from a specialist store.
3. Apply the tubeless rim tape. Depending on the rim/tire combination, it may be helpful to apply two or three layers of tubeless rim tape to optimally seal the rim bed.

All this information is stored in our useful Product Support. By entering the 7-digit DT Swiss ID or scanning the corresponding QR code / dot code with your mobile camera, you can easily identify your product. Please note that the dot code can only be read with this specific scan reader.
Since 2020, all wheels and suspension products are equipped with the 7-digit DT Swiss ID. If your product does not have a DT Swiss ID, you can also identify it using the filter function or the material number. Here you can find everything about the exact positioning of the DT Swiss ID on our products.
Under Product Support, you will find exact details of all conversion options for your product (wheel, hub). First go to Product Support and select your product using the DT Swiss ID or filter. Under "Conversion" you will find the exact details for all conversion options. You will also find helpful How To videos and manuals.
The tire should be pumped in line with the manufacturer's instructions, in order to ensure optimum rolling resistance.
Note: This can vary depending on the tire manufacturer and model. The tire pressure impacts both the ride comfortability and stability of the wheel. See our tire pressure table for an overview of maximum tire pressures depending on tire and rim width.
In cycling, rim height significantly impacts the aerodynamics, maneuverability and weight of the wheel. Basically, the higher the rim, the greater the aerodynamic advantage. The lower the rim, the more agile and maneuverable the handling.
