Description
Aero Performance For All-Day Rides
Developed and tested using Turbulent Aero technology, the Reserve 42 | 49 (DT Swiss 180) is designed for everything you do, providing all-day capability with aerodynamic sensibilities. Raced at events as varied as the Paris-Roubaix and the Giro D'Italia, the 42 | 49 wheels have a lifetime warranty supported by a no-fault crash replacement.
And in keeping with Reserve workmanlike ways, you'll find external nipples, standard spokes, no tire limitations with a semi-hooked design and no rider weight limits.
Wind Tunnel Tested
The life of a wheelset like the new Reserve 42 | 49 begins with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), with the goal of maximizing aerodynamics while enhancing stability. Reserve's exclusive wind-tunnel testing then provides data that is focused on simulating real-world air flow, allowing us to confirm performance targets in a sterile and controlled environment. In the end, Reserve has created one of the most stable and aerodynamic wheelsets to date.
Strong & Light
Optimizing the strength and weight of our rims in an exhaustive effort and it all starts at our California composites lab located in Santa Cruz. Not only do we work to develop the carbon fiber layup, but we have developed a proprietary test protocol to mimic real-world impacts and spoke pull outs on wheels. As a result, we are able to define the exact fiber orientation for each rim model to maximize stiffness and strength.

Reviews
This is by far the best wheelset I own. Other wheels I have are Rovals, Zipps, Hunts and DT Swiss. The DT180 hubs with ceramic bearings on these Reserve wheels are super smooth unlike any other wheels I have. This smoothness seems to help me get up hills a little easier too. As for stability with crosswinds, these wheels are much better than my other wheels with front wheel depths of 32mm, 40mm and 45mm. I was comfortable riding them in 20mph crosswinds. I am currently riding these wheels with 28mm GP5000s and Vittoria latex inner tubes. PSI F/R at 59/61. External tire widths F/R inflates out to 31/30.5 mm. That makes external rim widths to tire widths well within the 105 rule.
