Meet the Reserve 42|49 Turbulent Aero wheels—your new best mates for conquering the asphalt! Developed with Turbulent Aero technology, these wheels are not just built for speed; they promise all-day performance that will have you feeling like you're flying down the road. Seriously, your coffee's probably going to get jealous of how fast you glide!

The 42|49 wheels have been through the fire—raced at famed events like the Paris-Roubaix and the Giro D’Italia. And guess what? They come with a lifetime warranty and no-fault crash replacement! It's like a safety net for your confident rides. With external nipples, standard spokes, and a clever semi-hooked design, there are zero tyre limitations and absolutely no rider weight restrictions.

Wind Tunnel Tested
Your adventure deserves more than just good looks; it demands performance. That's why these wheels kick-start their journey in a Computational Fluid Dynamics lab, maximising aerodynamics and stability. Those sleek lines aren’t just for show—they're engineered to slice through air like a hot knife through butter (not that we recommend using kitchen utensils on your ride).

Strong AND Light
You know who loves the gym? These wheels. Every rim goes through rigorous testing in Santa Cruz to master a balance of strength and weight that would make even the toughest of bikers proud. With a precise carbon fibre layup and durability at the forefront, they’re ready to tackle any road you throw at them—real-world challenges included!

Lifetime Support
When life gives you bumps, the Reserve 42|49 wheels help you roll over them with style. With internally reinforced spoke holes, they strengthen the area that needs it most without piling on extra weight. Consider it a passport to stronger, more secure rides every time.
