Description

The Reserve 50|50 DT 350 Carbon Wheelset is designed to hit that elusive balance between everyday usability and race-level speed. With a 50mm rim depth, it occupies the semi-aero sweet spot—deep enough to carve through the wind with measurable aerodynamic gains, yet not so aggressive that crosswinds overwhelm handling. It’s the same territory as proven all-round aero performers like Zipp’s 303 Firecrest, making it a natural choice for riders who want speed without sacrificing stability. Whether the goal is crit racing, long endurance road miles, or fast-paced group rides, the 50|50 is the Reserve wheelset built to thrive in diverse conditions.

The rims feature a 21mm internal width, allowing seamless pairing with everything from 25mm road race tires to wider 32mm endurance rubber. This versatility makes them adaptable for mixed-surface rides and modern all-road builds. The hooked bead profile supports tubeless setups while also being compatible with traditional clinchers, giving riders options depending on their preferences. As with every Reserve carbon wheel, spoke holes are internally reinforced to strengthen the most stressed portion of the rim around the nipple, increasing durability without adding unnecessary weight. External nipples are retained, which means riders never need to pull off rim tape just to make a quick tension adjustment—a nod to serviceability that doesn’t compromise performance.

At the heart of the 50|50 is the DT Swiss 350 Center Lock hubset, a proven performer in high-level racing and demanding training conditions alike. The 350 features straight pull spoke flanges for excellent stiffness and power transfer, combined with DT’s refined 36-tooth Star Ratchet freehub system. Engagement is positive and reliable, with a reputation for being one of the most easily serviced systems in the industry. The 350 hubset balances weight, responsiveness, and long-term reliability, allowing the 50|50 to deliver uncompromising performance mile after mile.

With a semi-aero profile, wide internal bed, and DT’s legendary hubs, the Reserve 50|50 DT 350 wheelset offers a do-it-all aero solution that thrives on speed but refuses to compromise on everyday dependability. Light enough for race day, stiff enough for sprinting, and versatile enough for endurance rides, it’s a wheelset engineered to be the backbone of any performance road setup.
