SET OF RESERVE 42|49 SL TURBULENT AERO WHEELS

Reduce every possible gram, without sacrificing the robustness and reliability for which Reserve is known. This is the objective of the 42|49 SL TA Tune: a wheel set designed to offer maximum performance without compromise. Carbon rims, dedicated hubs. Tune Pico and a completely redesigned rim layup work together to ensure lightness, stiffness, and long-term durability.

They are wheels light enough to tackle the most challenging climbs yet aerodynamic and stable as speed increases. The differentiated profile of 42 mm at the front and 49 mm at the rear represents the best balance between control and aerodynamic penetration, making them extremely versatile in every condition, from daily riding up to high-level competitions, as demonstrated by the victories of Pauline Ferrand-Prévot to the Tour de France Femmes.

The Turbulent Aero protocol, developed by Reserve through wind tunnel testing and on-road data collection, enables greater speed and stability even in crosswinds. This is complemented by a construction philosophy focused on safety and durability: no weight limit for the rider, lifetime warranty, and crash replacement service in case of a no-fault accident.

Each set includes spare spokes and nipples, double XDr and HG-EV freehub bodies, tubeless tape, Fillmore valves, and Reserve decals.
