The Reserve 42/49 SL Turbulent Aero is a lightweight carbon wheelset for disc brake road bikes, with a 42 mm front rim and a 49 mm rear rim and a claimed weight of 1,297 g for the pair. It suits riders who climb, race and do long group rides and want one set of wheels that is light and still aero, from Jebel Hafeet to fast weekend loops.
The SL build pairs Reserve rims with Tune Pico hubs and 24 straight pull bladed carbon spokes per wheel. Hubs are 12 x 100 mm front and 12 x 142 mm rear thru axle with Center Lock rotors, and Reserve recommends 29 to 40 mm tyres. Tell us your groupset when ordering so we confirm the freehub body.
