Reynolds understands that we want to get the most out of our riding experience but we don't always have the funds to afford the latest greatest carbon wheelset. That's why we're excited about its new AR lineup built with wind cheating, stiff, and lightweight carbon fiber rims, with just a few cost-cutting concessions getting it to around half the price of most carbon road wheelsets. If you fancy some deep section wheels for your road, tri, or TT disc brake machine, the 58/62 Carbon Disc Wheelset is the ticket. Reynolds builds these wheels to inject some speed into your ride and offer an aerodynamic advantage. Seeing as the rim profiles are refined for better crosswind stability, it pairs well with modern, wider, tubeless road rubber, yields a comfortable ride and is exceptionally durable, we wouldn't hesitate to ride these wheels every day. And with Reynolds offering a lifetime warranty on the hoops, you can rest assured that if something does go afoul, it'll have your back. As we mentioned above, the rim profiles are optimized, depending on its front or rear placement, to better cope with the wind and forces each wheel sees. The front is slightly narrower, helping to reduce its frontal area and is slightly blunter for stable crosswind handling. The rear is slightly wider, helping to reduce rolling resistance while its 62mm depth provides increased stiffness and even better aerodynamics. Both rims feature healthy internal widths letting you run wider tubeless tires at lower pressure for better traction, faster rolling, and more comfort, and are shaped to increase stability and reduce drag over a wide range of yaw angles. The carbon hoops are laced with Sapim Sprint spokes and durable brass nipples, with 20 spokes on the front and 24 out back, to smooth rolling Reynolds Allroad hubs. The hubs have a quick 10-degree engagement ensuring virtually zero lag time in your pedaling stroke propelling you forward. It comes set up for thru-axle use and QR adapters are avail...
