Reserve 30|GR Aluminum Gravel Wheelset
Built for the adventurous rider who demands absolute reliability, the Reserve 30|GR AL is a tough, adventure-ready aluminum gravel wheelset designed to conquer rough terrain and heavy bikepacking loads. By mirroring the highly successful profile of their carbon counterparts, Reserve has crafted a premium alloy wheelset that balances off-road comfort with exceptional durability.
Featuring a 30mm rim depth and a generous 27mm internal width, the 30|GR AL is perfectly optimized to support modern high-volume gravel and cyclocross tires ranging from 30c to 50c. The asymmetrical rim design creates a stiffer, stronger wheel, while the semi-hooked bead ensures that seating tubeless tires is completely hassle-free.

And true to Reserve's ethos, these wheels come with zero rider weight limits, zero tire brand restrictions, and an industry-leading lifetime warranty with no-fault crash replacement.

Key Features
Asymmetrical Design: Asymmetrical rims on both the front and rear make for a significantly stiffer, stronger, and more reliable wheel build. By improving the bracing angles and equalizing the spoke tension between the drive and non-drive sides, the wheel can easily handle aggressive cornering and heavy bikepacking loads.
Optimized Rim Profile: Reserve's specific rim bed shape dramatically eases tubeless installation. The design utilizes offset spoke holes that allow the tire to easily push past the bead bump, ensuring a safe, rapid, and secure tubeless seating process.
No Fuss Design: The 30|GR AL is your ultimate hassle-free aluminum gravel wheelset. Built with standard J-bend spokes, no rider weight limits, and no tire restrictions. They are compatible with both tubeless and tubed setups, and are backed by Reserve’s lifetime warranty for total peace of mind in the backcountry.
