Bontrager Aeolus Pro TLR Road Tire

A light and fast road tire designed for speed and durability on the tarmac

Pro TLR Construction: 120 TPI with bead-to-bead puncture protection

Race Dual-Compound: fast rolling center and grippy shoulder

Tubeless Ready (TLR) for easy tubeless setup

Firm smooth center tread is key to straight line speed and softer shoulders stick to corners with confidence

The Aeolus Pro TLR is the right call for riders who want genuine performance-tier road rubber without paying RSL prices — training cyclists, club riders, and anyone building out a tubeless setup on a road or endurance bike who wants Aeolus aerodynamics without the cotton-casing premium. It's also an ideal choice for riders stepping up from a basic training tire and wanting a meaningful performance improvement in a tubeless-ready format. Our team at Fresh Air will help you find the right size and confirm rim compatibility in-store at both Kelowna locations. Stop by to work with one of our experienced staff members, or call 250-763-3425.

The Aeolus Pro TLR is new to the lineup, and our team can help you understand where it sits relative to the RSL and Elite — and whether the Pro's width range and price point make sense for your specific bike and riding style. If you're converting to tubeless for the first time or selecting a width to pair with your current wheelset, we're happy to walk you through it in-store.

Q1: How do I choose the right width Aeolus Pro TLR for my bike? The Aeolus Pro TLR is available in 28, 30, and 32mm. Width selection depends on your frame's tire clearance, your rim's inner width, and your riding priorities. A 28mm suits performance road builds and narrower rims; 30 and 32mm work well on wider modern rims and give you more volume for comfort and grip on longer or rougher roads. Our staff can help you measure clearance and match the right width to your wheels at either Fresh Air location.

Q2: How does the Aeolus Pro TLR compare to the Aeolus RSL TLR? The Aeolus lineup now runs three tiers: RSL, Pro, and Elite. The RSL is Bontrager's flagship — it uses a 320 TPI cotton casing and Race Dual Compound for maximum speed and suppleness. The Pro brings the same Aeolus aerodynamic profile and tubeless-ready construction at a more accessible price point. The Elite steps down further for riders focused on value. For most training and recreational riders, the Pro represents a strong middle ground between outright performance and everyday usability. If you're unsure which tier suits your riding, our team can help you decide in-store.

Q3: What's the difference between a tubeless-ready tire and a standard clincher? A tubeless-ready (TLR) tire is designed to seat and seal against a compatible rim without an inner tube, using sealant to plug small punctures automatically. This eliminates pinch flats entirely and lets you run lower pressures for improved grip and comfort. Standard clinchers require an inner tube and will flat immediately when punctured. The Aeolus Pro TLR can also be run with a tube if needed, making the transition to tubeless low-risk. You'll need a compatible rim, tubeless valve stems, and sealant to run it tubeless — our team can walk you through the setup in-store.
