  • Reserve 28|XC Carbon Rim

Description

The world cup winning carbon XC mountain bike rim, race-ready.

The Reserve 28|XC is the race-ready culmination of everything Reserve/Santa Cruz have learned from years at the highest levels of competition. The 28|XC features a wider and lower rim profile than our previous XC race rims, increasing strength and lateral rigidity while adding vertical compliance.

The new rim shape also eases tubeless tire installation and improves tire bead retention at lower pressure. The Reserve 28|XC is sturdy and strong enough for a rowdy XC ride, but light and fast enough for a jaunt on the World Cup XC circuit.

Spoke Reinforcements

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.

Redesigned Rim Bed

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 Design

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.
