Reynolds TR 309/289 XC Wheelset

The staggered design is intentional. The wider 30mm front rim increases tire volume for better traction and steering precision, while the narrower 28mm rear rim improves compliance and tracking, helping the wheel better handle the forces applied during pedaling and technical climbs.

Yes, the rims feature a hookless, tubeless-ready design. This construction is specifically engineered to work with tubeless tires, providing a secure bead seat and enhanced impact resistance compared to traditional hooked rims.

These wheels are compatible with Center Lock disc rotors only. You will need to ensure your brake system is set up for this standard, as they will not accept 6-bolt rotors without an adapter.

The 10-degree engagement provides a quick, responsive feel when you start pedaling. This is particularly noticeable on technical climbs or tight, twisty trails where immediate power transfer is necessary to clear obstacles or accelerate out of corners.

While they are built with cross-country racing in mind, the carbon construction and impact-resistant design make them robust enough for aggressive trail riding. They balance a lightweight profile with the durability needed for technical terrain.
