The Wheel for Race Day, Everyday

From your lunch ride to Pauline Ferrand Prevost’s Tour winning efforts, this wheelset is the silver bullet. 42|49 is light enough to climb and gives you just enough depth to cut through wind without giving up control.

Turbulent Aero

Turbulent Aero

Reserve’s aerodynamic protocol uses real-world wind data to develop wheels that are both faster and more stable on the road, not just the wind tunnel. More speed. More control. Turbulent Aero.

FAQ

What is the maximum pressure for your rims?

Road rims: 100 psi (6.9 bar). Gravel rims: 80 psi (5.5 bar).

Always defer to the tyre manufacturer's stated maximum if it is lower than the rim's — the lower of the two figures is the one to run.

Can you build me a wheelset if I send you my hubs? Do you sell rim-only?

Yes. We offer a full wheelbuilding service at Legend Bikes — send us your hubs, or choose hubs with us, and our workshop will build them to your Reserve rims. We also sell rim-only options if you'd prefer to have the wheels built elsewhere. Get in touch and we'll talk through spoke count, lacing and hub compatibility for your bike.

Where can I find more tech spec information?

The full technical specification for this wheel — ERD, rim widths, spoke count, hub spacing, freehub and rotor options — is listed in the Details section further down this page. If you need a figure that isn't there, contact us and we'll get it for you.
