The Reserve 48|53 GR is the fastest off-road wheelset Reserve has ever built — the culmination of their on- and off-road racing development, bringing Tour de France aerodynamics together with World Cup XC capability in one seriously quick gravel package.
Optimised for tyres between 40 and 57mm (2.25"), the 48|53 GR gives you more control, more speed and greater pinch-flat protection. A 30mm internal width lets the tyre sit wider on the rim for a bigger contact patch and more grip, while the super-wide 44mm external profile smooths the airflow across tyre and rim to cut drag. External nipples, Sapim CX-Ray bladed spokes and a semi-hooked design keep setup and maintenance straightforward, with no tyre limitations and no rider weight limit.
New for Reserve is the innovative Hollow Hook construction, which shaves weight from the outermost section of the rim without sacrificing the strength and reliability Reserve is known for. As with every Reserve wheel, it is backed by a lifetime warranty for complete peace of mind.
