Reserve 30|SL AL 6069
Your wheels are arguably the most critical component on your mountain bike, which is exactly why Reserve developed the all-new 30|SL 6069 AL—a premium, lightweight aluminum trail wheelset designed to do it all. Crafted from high-grade 6069 alloy, these wheels deliver a ride quality, weight, and responsiveness that directly rivals their much-loved carbon counterparts, but at a highly accessible price point.
Perfect for cross-country, aggressive trail riding, and all-mountain epics, the 30|SL AL features a versatile 30mm internal width optimized for 2.2" to 2.5" tires. Despite its "Super Light" designation, this wheelset is fully E-Bike approved, meaning it has the strength to handle heavy torque and technical descents. Best of all, these wheels come standard with Reserve's game-changing high-flow Fillmore tubeless valves, making tire seating an absolute breeze.
Now available with ultra-lightweight BERD PolyLight spoke upgrades to shave even more rotational weight! Ride with absolute confidence knowing your premium alloy wheels are backed by Reserve's industry-leading lifetime guarantee.

Key Features
Fillmore Valves Standard: This wheelset comes standard with Reserve's patented Fillmore tubeless valves. This represents a game-changing leap forward in technology, with a high-flow design that eases tubeless setup and eliminates the traditional, delicate, clog-inciting valve core of yesteryear.
Asymmetrical Design: Asymmetrical rims, like those on the 30|SL AL, build significantly stiffer, stronger, and more reliable wheels. By improving the bracing angles and equalizing the spoke tension between the drive and non-drive sides, the wheel provides superior lateral stiffness in tight corners and technical rock gardens.
Tested and Approved: With over a year of relentless ride and lab testing, the 30|SL AL wheels are designed to withstand any abuse you can throw at them on the trail. Just like all Reserve carbon wheels, these premium aluminum hoops are fully supported by an uncompromising lifetime guarantee.
