For decades, Reynolds has been at the forefront of wheel innovation, crafting some of the most advanced and enduring performance wheels across every discipline of cycling. From road to mountain, and from the earliest days of carbon composites to today’s most refined race technologies, Reynolds has earned a reputation for building tip-of-the-spear performance that lasts, backed by the industry’s leading guarantee. Now, the wheel experts turn their attention to the next evolution of cross-country performance. Drawing directly from the universally lauded 309 XC carbon platform, Reynolds introduces the A309 XC Wheel Family — an all-new aluminum range developed with the same meticulous design philosophy and uncompromising standards that define the brand’s carbon legacy. Built for riders who demand the quickness, control, and durability of a true XC race wheel, the A309 XC series proves that Reynolds’ expertise goes far beyond material, it’s about mastery in every element.

Modern XC riders demand agility on climbs and stability at speed. The new A309 XC wheels feature a 30 mm internal width, optimized for the wider tire profiles favored by today’s racers and endurance riders. The result is a stronger tire interface, enhanced traction, and improved comfort over variable terrain. Each rim is crafted from 6069 aluminum and precision-welded to ensure maximum strength with minimal weight. The STR tubeless-ready, hooked channel provides a secure, no-burp fit and effortless inflation with modern XC tires. Riders benefit from a rim that resists dents and pinch flats while maintaining the compliant, responsive feel that defines a true XC wheel — fast on the climbs, composed on descents, and efficient on every pedal stroke.   In other words, the perfect combination of all relevant criteria to create the ideal XC solution according to the RTV design philosophy.
