Charles : AR465 disc Flyweight with Carbon-Ti X-Hub and no access holes have been a joy on the flats, on ascents, and fast descents. Tubeless Pirelli P-Zero SLs with these wheels are so smooth and comfortable.

Tomáš : After the first ride, I have to say that the wheels AR465 disc Flyweight Hook UD Paintless Disc 21H HUB-F Light Bicycle Speed-Hub V2.0 Black ceramic and Flyweight Carbon Spoke (Special Edition) ride great, they are really incredibly light and respond great to acceleration. The wheels are perfectly rigid and extremely stable when driving, even in strong crosswinds. I am excited about them. Last but not least, they look amazing. Judge for yourself.

SAR : Lovely wheels, extremely solid, durable and reliable. Went through various potholes and came out unscathed. Excellent DT Swiss 240 EXP Hubs, neither too loud nor too soft. Decided on the marble weave and it came out beautiful - many people were complimenting them and asking where I got them from! Love the X-flow profile as well, very steady even in strong winds and looks very cool. Overall, two thumbs up. Will definitely purchase from Light Bicycle again when I decide to get another set!

Michael : I got the 46.5 depth specifically out of concern for crosswinds as a lighter (under 70kg) rider. Where I live now is fairly distant from long climbs but there are surprisingly strong winds relative to the San Francisco Bay Area and Boulder, Colorado in the United States. The winds have no impact on how much I enjoy the ride other than going slower or faster even when I can tell my body has to be tilted slightly to offset a cross wind. I use 25mm in the front and 32MM in the rear, GP5000 S TR. I am curious to try the 55mm depth version of the wheels to see how they hold up in similar conditions (these weren't available when I purchased these wheels). I have a 32MM Roval CL32 wheelset that I rarely use now so it's hard for me to really compare the 465 wheels in terms of road feel and other attributes, but I've had no reason to not love these wheels. I used to have 50mm v section wheels but it's been 5+ years since I rode those regularly. I do remember feeling very uneasy at times from crosswinds on those, even though I was on 23mm or 25 mm tires, and I never feel that way now. Then again, I'm riding in different terrain now versus those past wheels, so maybe it's not a true fair comparison, but again I've had no reason to not like these wheels.

AR465 Disc, I like the setup, but I will like to change the freehub for a XD Sram(12).


LightBicycle 2023/02/16

Hi Sir, Do you like AR465 disc 700C wheelset with sram XDR free hub? What hubs do you prefer? DT Swiss 240 exp or carbon Ti? We can quote accordingly for you. Thanks, Lightbicycle

Good morning Lightbicycle Team, I am looking at your X flow falcon pro wheels, would you be able to make up a set with ar465 front and ar565 rear with DT Swiss 240 exp 36t hub? Also how much would they weigh? Kind regards, Jake McCloud


LightBicycle 2023/02/10

Hi Jake, It is okay to build wheelset with front AR465/rear AR565 700C disc. We just quoted you through email. Please check. Thanks, Lightbicycle

I'm getting ready to order a pair of Falcon Pro AR465 discs. If I order from North America there is no choice regarding spoke holes. Does that mean the rims will come with spoke holes? Thanks


LightBicycle 2021/11/12

Hi Todd, Actually, when you finish choosing the hubs color, the spoke count is in the next option. We only have front 24H and rear 24H for AR465 disc wheelset 700C now. Thanks, Lightbicycle
