Description

The Reserve 65 DT 240 Carbon Rear Wheel is engineered for riders who live in the high-speed zone—those who demand aerodynamic advantage, responsive power transfer, and total confidence when the pace never lets up. With its 65 mm deep carbon rim and the precision-built DT Swiss 240 hub, this wheel transforms every watt into smooth, sustained speed. It’s built for the rider who wants race-day performance in a package tough enough for everyday training.

The 65 mm rim profile represents the pinnacle of Reserve’s aerodynamic development. Shaped through extensive CFD modeling and verified in variable-wind testing, it reduces drag across a wide range of yaw angles while maintaining stability in gusts and crosswinds. The deeper section adds torsional stiffness, turning pedal force into clean acceleration without lateral flex. The 21 mm internal width supports 25–30 mm tires, creating a broad, stable interface that lowers rolling resistance and enhances cornering grip. Tubeless-ready and hookless by design, the rim allows lower pressures for better compliance and efficiency across real-world roads.

At its core, the DT Swiss 240 hub delivers world-class precision. Featuring the Ratchet EXP 36T drive system, it provides lightning-fast engagement and long-term reliability with minimal maintenance. The lightweight, forged-alloy hub shell and optimized flange geometry create balanced spoke angles for stiffness under power and durability over time. Inside, high-grade sealed bearings minimize friction, keeping rotation effortless under load. Combined with the SRAM XDR freehub, every shift feels instantaneous and every watt flows directly to the tarmac—no lag, no wasted motion, just pure mechanical efficiency.

Each Reserve 65 rear wheel is hand-built with 24 Sapim CX-Ray bladed spokes in a two-cross pattern, providing aerodynamic strength and predictable stiffness. The asymmetric spoke bed ensures even tension across the drive and non-drive sides, maintaining perfect trueness under heavy torque. Reserve’s meticulous building standards guarantee alignment and durability that lasts season after season. The wheel’s combination of deep-section aerodynamics, hub precision, and carbon refinement delivers speed that feels composed and stable, not twitchy or nervous.

Whether you’re racing a time trial, hammering a flat circuit, or chasing a breakaway in the wind, the Reserve 65 DT 240 Carbon Rear Wheel is your foundation for sustained velocity. It embodies the same balance of performance and craftsmanship that defines every Reserve product—fast when you need it, reliable when you demand it, and engineered to stay smooth long after the finish line. Pure speed, refined for the real world.
