The Reserve 28|XC (DT Swiss 350) is the race-ready culmination of Reserve's experience with years at the highest levels of competition. At 1491g for the set with tape and valves (AND no rider weight limit and lifetime warranty), the 28|XC features a wider and lower rim profile than their previous XC race wheels, increasing strength and lateral rigidity while adding vertical compliance. It's sturdy and strong enough for a rowdy XC ride, but light and fast enough for a jaunt on the World Cup XC circuit.
Reserve uses externally reinforced spoke holes to strengthen the area where the rim sees the most force, around the spoke nipple. This provides for improved strength without adding unnecessary weight.
The 28|XC's redesigned rim bed eases tubeless installation, with a shaped rim bed utilizing offset spoke holes that allows the tire to easily push past the bead bump to seat tubeless tires.
Asymmetrical rims front and rear make for a stiffer, stronger and more reliable wheels by improving the bracing angles and equalizing the spoke tensions between the drive and non-drive side spokes.
