THE BL46 PRO, BL46 EXPERT AND AR46 WHEELS FROM REYNOLDS REPRESENT A NEW LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE AND ARE THE VERITABLE JACK OF ALL TRADES THAT EXCELS IN ALL AREAS.

The new 46mm range is the embodiment of the one wheel to do it all, without compromise. Class leading and forward-thinking aerodynamic design in an amazingly lightweight yet extremely efficient and reliable package.  This range should leave little doubt as to the best bet for a better cycling experience on the road. Ride better, ride Reynolds.

The 46mm offering is a mid-depth profile that is extremely versatile yet best in class in terms of aerodynamics. Designed using the RAV design philosophy, the new DET 2 profile offers not only unrivaled aerodynamic performance but class leading stability as well. Reynolds’ comprehensive approach to aerodynamics that provide real world benefit is the key to producing a wheel that produces a tangible benefit to all riders. While wind tunnel and CFD analysis is part of the development process, the Reynolds profile is designed with the innumerable Yaw angles of wind a rider will encounter on the road. The DET 2 profile is made in such a way to improve not only the wheel’s aerodynamics in a versatile and performance enhancing way, but also conferring the stability necessary for the rider to safely maintain a more aerodynamic and efficient position. In other words, the design of the Reynolds profile takes into consideration both the aerodynamics of the rider as well as the wheelset, as the two must necessarily compete (and win) together.

Using the Reynolds CR6 laminate design and enhanced resin system the engineering department was able to reduce weight while ensuring optimum durability and power transfer…thus ensuring performance that stands the test of time (or competition). Such technology and meticulous development allow Reynolds to produce not only race winning performance but also a lifetime guarantee on the structural integrity of the rim.

Reynolds Aero Versatility, or RAV, considers the real-world usage of a wheel and develops a solution that gives the rider not only advantages in the form of aerodynamic efficiency from the wide range of wind angles he or she will encounter on the road, but also the highest degree of stability possible at any given rim depth. Added stability improves control and, as a result, allows for the rider to maintain an aerodynamic position more safely, comfortably, and for longer…translating into better performance.

From the Reynolds/Industry 9 hubs on the BL PRO to the SunRingle solutions on the Expert and AR versions, the immediate engagement ensures that power transfer is crisp, immediate and efficient.
