Reserve 30|HD AL Aluminium MTB Rim - 27.5" & 29" - Enduro/E-Bike Ready - Ultimate Enduro Strength
The Reserve 30|HD AL Aluminium Rim is your ultimate choice for a tough, reliable, and high-performance mountain bike rim. Designed and tested to rival the performance of Reserve’s revered carbon wheels, this aluminium version makes premium durability more accessible, all while being backed by their industry-leading lifetime guarantee.
Built for the most demanding Trail, All-Mountain, and Enduro riding, including e-bike use, the 30|HD AL rim is engineered to withstand severe abuse. Its 30mm internal width is perfectly matched for modern high-volume tyres, giving you optimal tyre profile and support for aggressive riding.
A key feature is the Asymmetrical Design, which utilises an offset spoke bed to improve significantly spoke bracing angles and equalise spoke tension between the drive and non-drive sides. The result is a stiffer, stronger, and more reliable wheel build that will stay truer for longer, letting you focus on the trail ahead.
