Reynolds Aero Wheelset – Review by Wired
If you’re looking to reduce weight, go fast, and win races, perhaps the single best upgrade you can make to your road bike is to pick up a good set of aerodynamic carbon wheels.

Verdict. Super do-it-all wheels, the new aero carbon clincher leaders
Instead of using a ‘fat’ profile like their rivals, now widely copied, Reynolds have developed this sharp-edged shape called DET – Dispersive Effect Termination
… even better stability in blustery conditions….very wide at the brake track but narrows to a sharp edge at the spoke bed.
The 58s are instantly impressive.
These are the stiffest conventionally-spoked wheels we’ve tested so they’re great for sprinting, feel much lighter than their measured 1,605g when climbing and they rail around corners.
Back to back with Mavic R-Sys SLR s, paragons of rigidity with a big advantage due to their tubular carbon spokes, there was nothing in it.
…a hybrid carbon laminate is used for the rim, with each section – spoke face, sidewall, brake track, tyre bed – made in a specific material.
The Aero range uses the familiar Reynolds Cryo Blue brake pads and CT g brake track tech, claimed to run cooler while still offering plenty of power.
They feel as fast as they claim to be, needing less power to cruise at 35kph.
The real magic though is the stability.
We went out on a gale force day to find the most exposed road and even in 70kph crosswinds (with a 71kg rider) the 58s stay calm and barely move off line an inch.
Are they better than the Zipp 404 Firecrest and Enve 6.7? Yes, we’ve no doubt.
The 58 Aero is a more stable, a lot stiffer, at least as fast and usefully cheaper too.
We have a new mid-depth champion.

This is a fast wheelset that will repay your investment with its huge versatility
The 58s are instantly impressive.
They’re the stiffest conventionally-spoked wheels we’ve tested and they accelerate quickly, feel lighter than their measured 1,605g when climbing, and corner with vigour.
The real magic, though, is the stability. Even in strong crosswinds on open ground (with a 71kg rider) they stay calm and barely move off line an inch.
