These 42/49 really tick almost most of my boxes. But I haven't seen a review of these anywhere. If anyone where can give their feedback, it is very much appreciated.
Not common here in Portugal. Did you try "Pernalonga" ?

is there any review of reserve 42|49 ?
I posted a very brief review above, but if you have specific questions about them I can try to provide some answers.
I'm interested how they compare for exmaple with 303 FC, weight is similar.
How setup works with inner tubes, haven't seen anyone running inner tubes on IW 25mm rims :D
And maybe you have exact weight? how it differs from specified weight?
Just recieved mine with DT240s, weight is 1346 inc. tape but without the valves.

Wow! That's light!
I have a set of 42/49 with DT Swiss hubs, and it weighed 1355 grams without the tape/valves.

Curious if anyone has an example of the real weight of the 42/49 with the 350 hubs.

Just buy the ones with 350 hubs...... Like me
How do you like the wheelset with the 350s? I'm curious if it's worth the extra cost with the 240s in terms of servicing and weight difference. I can't find a source that has the same weight for the 350s. I either see 1412g or 1489g across different product descriptions.
