Narrative:
During initial climb out from ZZZZ; we had a 'wheel well fire' warning at FL260. We immediately lowered landing gear because we were restricted to speed 250 kts by ATC at the time. I read aloud the QRH checklist for 'wheel well fire' twice. Once that was completed (warning light out already); captain transferred control to me so he could read the checklist himself. I focused on flying the aircraft by navigating through some weather system. I descended to FL200 in order to maintain safe airspeed. Captain called company dispatcher via satcom and discussed about course of action. I did not note any hot brake temp during before takeoff check; and during the emergency procedure; I noted all brake temp indicated 0. We all agreed to continue to ZZZ since we had sufficient fuel w/ reserve. We requested ZZZ approach to have fire trucks stand by to inspect our landing gear just in case. Landing was non-eventful; and post flight inspection showed no signs of fire damage.
