XLab Aero Carbon Wing System with Xenon Cages - 2024

Our most aerodynamic and user-friendly rear hydration system to date. 2x the time savings over the previous gen Carbon Wing. Multiple mounting & cage position adjustments maintain aerodynamics while improving ergonomics. Fits over 50 saddle models by 17 manufacturers.
COMPLETE SYSTEM INCLUDING 2 XENON CAGES with 8 lb of GRIP

The Ultimate in Rear Hydration Systems.

•  TWICE AS FAST: Extensive aero research offers nearly twice the time savings over previous generations.
• INCREASED ADJUSTABILITY: From the carrier to the cage, all optimizing speed and bottle access.
• INCREASED BOTTLE RETENTION: Cages re-positioned for optimum retention and easier access.
• CARBON BEAM: Special proprietary layup helps reduce cage vibration.
• WIDER COMPATIBILITY: Fits the widest range of saddle rails by mounting on the saddle's horizontal rail.
• ALL-TERRAIN APPROVED: Tested on both road and off-road terrains.

Aerodynamic Advantage:

• Hides from the Wind
  Positions your bottles and storage bag in a prime aerodynamic position behind the athlete, where air pressure and overall drag decreases. The system has been engineered with a wider bottle position than previous systems to allow free airflow around the seatpost all the while hiding the bottles behind the athlete’s thighs.

• Optimized through Aerodynamic Simulation
  Improved aerodynamics optimized through real world testing and over 260 Computerized Fluid Dynamic (CFD) aero simulations. The result is a system that effectively creates no additional drag while allowing airflow to quickly become streamlined and increase speed.

•  Fastest Yet
  Nearly twice the time savings over the previous generation CARBON WING. Placing your bottles behind the saddle provides significant time savings versus mounting them on your frame. Using the AERO CARBON WING can save over 7 ¾ minutes over the course of a full distance triathlon, our quickest design by far!
  Time Saving Over 180 Km (112mi)
  • 24 km/h (15 mph) – up to 7:45 min
  • 32 Km/h (20 mph) – up to 5:43 min.

Carrier Position:

• CFD Proof
  Our CFD aero simulations show that rider height and position on the saddle are major contributors to aerodynamic performance. Want to see what system setup is right for you? Check out our Engineering Tab.

Adjustable and Compatible:

• Saddle Rail Adjustment
  Whether you ride with your saddle nose up or down, we have you covered. Rail Bracket provides 18 degrees of adjustment allowing the AERO CARBON WING to remain in the most aerodynamic position, parallel to the ground.

• Cage Arm Adjustment
  2.52 cm (1") vertical and 1.27 cm (0.5") horizontal placement options allow you to dial in the perfect ergonomic position making bottle access easier and reduce drag further.

• Cage Rotation Adjustment
  High position provides a full 50 degrees of cage rotation. Low position provides up to 45 degrees of cage adjustment.

• Extensive Saddle Compatibility
  Fits over 50 of the most popular saddles. Mounting brackets fit standard 7 mm diameter steel and titanium saddle rails.

Thoughtfully Designed

•  Hidden Repair Storage
  Tucked into the underside of the beam is room for a complete repair kit without increasing drag. The perfect fit for the new AERO MINI BAG

•  Quick Disassembly
  Mounting bracket easily detaches from saddle rails for convenient travel packing or transfer to another bike. Simply remove 2 top bolts and loosen 2 lower and the system rotates free.

•  Advanced Ultra-light Construction
  Engineered with an Ultra-Light Carbon Monocoque beam and 6061 T-6 and 7075 T-6 aluminum alloy cage arms for increased lateral stiffness, torsional resistance, and overall durability while keeping weight down.
