Reynolds DV46 range offers a precision technology carbon wheelset, designed and built to meet the requirements of the most demanding competitors, including European pro teams Agritubel and Volksbank. The DV46 offers our exclusive, high modulus, unidirectional carbon construction in an aggressive, deep-V profile for incomparable lateral stiffness, strength and reduced weight. The aerodynamic profile balances stability across the flats in a crosswind, with explosive response in and out of the hairpins on a fast crit. The Reynolds DV46 braking is sure, smooth and quiet, better than a standard carbon layup wheel because the UL technology disperses heat with 17% greater efficiency. The DV46 is just as ideal for tempo riding as it is on a solo breakaway.
This Reynold DV46 wheelset is second hand (hence the price - they usually retail at over £1450) having been used for one season by Cycling Bargains Racing Team as a spare wheel set during Tour Series (10 races) and is a tubular rim. The tubular wheels weight is just 1140 g per set . This wheelset comes with a Shimano freehub but this is removable if you wanted to use a campagnolo freehub on it. Tubs are not fitted.
Reynolds DV46 wheels use a DT Swiss 240S HYB bub and DT Aerolite spokes. The front Spokes are radial DT Aerolite and the rear are laced as radial 2x drive using DT Aerolite and DT Competition. This means unlike many high end wheels the spokes are easily replacable at any bike shop, removing the need for special maintainance and unusal spoke stockists.
