The Reserve 57|64 Turbulent Aero DT 240 Carbon Wheelset takes the aerodynamic precision of Reserve’s latest rim design and pairs it with the proven reliability and efficiency of DT Swiss’s 240 hub platform. The result is a wheelset that captures the essence of real-world speed—light, stable, responsive, and engineered to deliver maximum performance on any course. For riders chasing podiums or long-distance endurance goals, it strikes the perfect balance between raw aerodynamics and everyday practicality.

The 57 mm front rim and 64 mm rear form a dual-depth profile designed to work in harmony, reducing drag while improving control in unpredictable winds. Reserve’s Turbulent Aero development process goes beyond traditional smooth-air tunnel testing, using computational fluid dynamics and real-environment modeling to simulate the chaotic airflow experienced on open roads. The resulting rim shapes minimize side-force steering input, keeping the bike composed when crosswinds hit, yet still delivering uncompromising aero performance at yaw angles where competitors falter. In testing and under riders, that translates to stability you can feel and speed you can trust.

Each rim is constructed using Reserve’s refined carbon lay-up, optimized for stiffness, impact resistance, and weight savings. The internal width is tailored to 28–32 mm tires, striking a sweet spot between aerodynamic transition, rolling efficiency, and comfort. This wider footprint allows lower pressures for improved grip and compliance while maintaining the snappy acceleration that defines high-performance carbon. A hookless bead and precisely molded tubeless-ready bed make setup simple and reliable, allowing riders to run modern tubeless road tires with perfect fit and consistent air retention.

At the center of it all are the DT Swiss 240 hubs—lightweight, precision-machined, and designed for near-zero friction. Their Ratchet EXP 36-tooth drive system delivers instantaneous engagement, ensuring every watt you generate is transferred directly to the road. The forged aluminum shells and hardened steel internals balance low weight with unmatched longevity, while the sealed cartridge bearings ensure smooth rotation through rain, dust, or the countless training miles that come between races. The 240’s minimalist design philosophy mirrors Reserve’s own: mechanical simplicity that translates to lasting performance with minimal maintenance.

Unlike the 180 Dicut version, which includes both freehubs, this configuration allows buyers to choose the drivetrain interface that matches their build—SRAM XDR or Shimano HG. This approach ensures the lightest possible configuration, free from unnecessary parts, while giving riders full compatibility with their preferred groupset. Both versions install seamlessly using DT’s standard tool-free interface, making swaps straightforward if you ever change drivetrains in the future.

Each wheel uses 24 bladed Sapim CX Ray spokes in a two-cross pattern, creating a balance of lateral stiffness and vertical compliance that keeps the wheels sharp yet forgiving. The spoke lacing, combined with Reserve’s asymmetric rim drilling, evens tension across both flanges for consistent alignment and long-term durability. Every build is completed by hand, ensuring precise trueness, tension, and dish before final inspection. It’s the kind of attention to detail that riders feel on the first descent and still appreciate thousands of kilometers later.

The aerodynamic benefit of the 57|64 profile isn’t limited to high-speed racing. On rolling terrain, the reduced turbulence around the frame-tire interface helps maintain momentum between efforts, conserving energy that you’ll notice deep into a ride. The combination of a stable front and deeper, driving rear yields a wheelset that feels alive under power—quick to spin up, unflinching in corners, and rock-solid on descents. It’s a modern balance: no nervous steering, no compromise on acceleration, and no hesitation to go fast in any conditions.

Built for real-world performance, the 57|64 DT 240 wheelset thrives across disciplines—road, triathlon, and all-road endurance. The centerlock rotor interface and 12×100 mm / 12×142 mm thru-axle spacing ensure universal disc-brake compatibility. Combined with Reserve’s lifetime warranty covering manufacturing defects and impact damage, you can ride hard knowing your investment is protected for the long haul. From pre-race prep to high-mileage training blocks, this wheelset performs flawlessly every single time you clip in.

When the ride demands more than speed—when it calls for trust, composure, and the satisfaction of effortless motion—the Reserve 57|64 Turbulent Aero DT 240 Carbon Wheelset answers. Every detail has been refined so that all you feel is the purity of forward motion: smooth, silent, and fast. It’s not just the sum of aerodynamic data and hub precision—it’s the experience of flow on the road, engineered and distilled into carbon and steel. Once you’ve felt it, there’s no going back.
