Reserve Wheels has already made a splash in 2026. A few weeks ago, they announced that they would be the first wheel brand to build with DT Swisss DEG DF anti-kickback hubs.And now they are at it again, but this time in the road-side of the industry. This time, they teamed up with Tune, a German hub manufacturer known for some of the lightest hubs available. Together, the two brands offer three road wheelbuilds that Reserve says have already won stages at the highest level.Reserve Uses Lightest, Most Aero RimsFor its partnership with Tune, Reserve chose its high-performing SL Tubulent Aero rims. However, they didnt limit the options to one size; they included all three aero profiles in their lineup: 34/37 SL TA, 42/49 SL TA, and 57/64 SL TA.Reserve designed its Turbulent Aero rims to withstand real-world racing conditions rather than the controlled airflow found in some testing environments. And the SL (Super Light) rims shave 60g off a wheelset while delivering the same performance.The ultimate, lightweight aero build is complete with straight-pull, bladed carbon Vanoa spokes. Tune designed its latest hub offering to align perfectly with Reserves spoke hole offset. This means the spokes dont need to be bent or twisted, resulting in a stronger, stiffer rim.Tune Pico HubsTunes latest hubs, the Pico, were created specifically for Reserves SL TA rims. They are machined from 7075-T6 alloy and share several smaller parts with the Micro and Nano hubs. Tune also machines the lockring for the centerlock rotors.All told, the Pico hubs weigh 275g per set, including the driver body and rotor lock rings. Tunes Pico hubs are compatible with both XDr and HG driver bodies. The hub axles are hard-anodized, with engagement starting at 69 POE (5.2). This can be increased to 138 POE (2.6) with an upgrade.DetailsAll wheelsets feature a lifetime warranty and have no weight limit. The rims come with tubeless tape and Fillmore valves, with both XDr and HG driver bodies included. Also included are four replacement Vanoa spokes and nipples.Reserve SL TA wheels and Tune hubs share a 24-hole pattern, front and rear. The wheelsets are offered in standard road spacing: 100x12mm (front) and 142x12mm (rear), and three rim profiles, 34/37mm, 42/49mm, and 57/64mm rim depths, front and rear.34/37 SL TA Wheelset34mm (F) / 37mm (R) rim depth22.8mm (F), 22mm (R) inner width29.8mm (F), 29.5mm (R) external widthWeight: 502g (F), 638g (R), 1140g combinedTire width: 25mm38mm42/49 SL TA Wheelset42mm (F) / 49mm (R) rim depth25.4mm (F), 24.8mm (R) inner width34.4mm (F), 32.1mm (R) external widthWeight: 564g (F), 726g (R), 1290g combinedTire width: 29mm40mm57/64 SL TA Wheelset42mm (F) / 49mm (R) rim depth25.4mm (F), 24.4mm (R) inner width34.3mm (F), 32.5mm (R) external widthWeight: 646g (F), 824g (R), 1470g combinedTire width: 29mm40mmAll Reserve/Tune wheelsets are priced at $3,499 each.
