The new 48|53 GR wheels are the culmination of Reserve’s on- and off-road racing developments, delivering Tour de France aerodynamics and World Cup XC capability in a single, unbelievably fast package. According to the brand, these are the fastest off-road wheels they’ve ever made.

Optimized for tyres between 40 and 57mm (2.25”), 48|53 GR give you more control, more speed and increased pinch flat protection. Featuring external nipples, Sapim CX-Ray bladed spokes, no tyre limitations, a semi-hooked design, and no rider weight limits.

New for Reserve is the innovative Hollow Hook construction. This cutting-edge design shaves weight from the outermost section of the rim without sacrificing any of the strength and reliability that the brand is known for. Fully backed by a lifetime warranty, for ultimate peace of mind.

NEW Features

30mm Internal

Made for modern gravel race tyres, a 30mm internal width allows the tyre to sit wider on the rim.

This creates a wider contact patch for more grip. The design also prevents tyres from ‘lightbulbing’, where the sidewalls taper in narrower than the widest point of the tyre, reducing the contact patch.

Aero Optimization

The super-wide 44mm external rim profile allows air to transition smoothly across the tyre and around the rim, reducing drag and increasing speed. This buffer of smooth-flowing air is the key to increasing your aerodynamic performance.

Hollow Hook Weight Savings

Our new hollow-hook design allows Reserve to achieve a super-wide internal and external rim profile without drastically increasing rim weight. Keeping overall weight down while still delivering exceptional pinch-flat protection, strength, and aerodynamics.
