FEATURES

CUSTOM PROFILES
Reserve custom designed the new aluminum rims to deliver the kind of performance you expect from a Reserve wheelset. Ride tested on everything from World Cup tracks to Santa Cruz singletrack, they deliver by design.

ASYMMETRICAL DESIGN (flipped front to rear)
Asymmetrical rims build stiffer, stronger and more reliable wheels by improving the bracing angles and equalizing the spoke tensions between the drive and non-drive side spokes.

DT SWISS 350/SAPIM SPOKES/SAPIM NIPPLES
We wanted the Reserve aluminum wheels to be as hassle free as possible and that means using products that are tried and true: The workhorse of the DT Swiss line with the 350 laced with Sapim spokes and nipples.
