Reserve 42|49 Turbulent Aero - Performance Road Bike Wheelset

The Reserve 42|49 wheelset is designed for riders who want it all: speed, stability, and comfort, regardless of the terrain. Thanks to the application of Turbulent Aero technology, this wheelset offers optimal aerodynamic performance and all-day confident handling. It's no coincidence that the 42|49 was used in iconic races such as Paris-Roubaix and the Giro d'Italia. Moreover, you benefit from a lifetime warranty and no-fault crash replacement, so you can keep riding worry-free.

Optimized in the wind tunnel

The development of the 42|49 made extensive use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel testing. This not only looks at theoretical performance but especially at the airflow experienced by the rider in practice. The result is a wheelset that is among the most stable and aerodynamic carbon wheels available today.

Light and incredibly strong

The rims are developed in Reserve's composite lab in Santa Cruz, California. Here, every detail is perfected: from the carbon lay-up to a unique testing protocol that simulates real impact and spoke loads. This ensures that the fiber orientation in each rim is precisely tuned to achieve the ideal blend of stiffness, strength, and low weight.

Always supported

Reserve was the first brand to offer a lifetime warranty on carbon wheelsets, and that also applies to the 42|49. Should anything happen, Reserve is ready to resolve it seamlessly. This way, you can be sure that material failure will never unnecessarily interrupt your ride.

Choose top performance

The Reserve 42|49 is the perfect choice for riders seeking a reliable, aerodynamic, and durable wheelset for both races and long training rides. Order today and experience for yourself how speed, stability, and confidence come together in one wheelset.
