The End of Skinny XC Rims? Reserve's New 30|XC Changes the Game
"The 30 XC jumps to a 30mm internal rim width, essential for better cornering support and better traction when things get greasy."
"Reserve claims the new rim design actually delivers improved strength and durability at a lower weight than its predecessor, with a claimed weight of just 1304g."
"The SL version utilizes a special high-modulus carbon layup to shave 30g off each rim while maintaining the same ride quality as the 28|XC."
"Vonoa carbon spokes are 30% lighter than traditional steel and offer a 'planted' and responsive feel that minimizes spoke wind-up during hard accelerations."
The 30|XC wheelset features a 30mm internal rim width, accommodating wider tires for improved cornering and traction. Reserve has increased the spoke count from 24 to 28, enhancing strength and durability while maintaining a lightweight design. The 30|XC SL variant uses a high-modulus carbon layup to reduce weight and incorporates Vonoa carbon spokes, which are lighter than steel and provide a responsive feel. Additionally, modern hub technology is utilized to enhance performance on the UCI World Cup circuit.
