Boyd Reiver Carbon Gravel Wheelset XDR

If your idea of gravel riding looks more like old-school mountain biking than a road race on dirt, the Boyd Cycling Reiver is your wheelset.
This is not a wheelset built for podium sprints or aero-obsessed gravel racing. If your goal is to sit at 22 mph on pristine farm roads, there are more race-focused options out there (like the Pinnacle Race).
The Reiver is for when the route gets rough, the miles get long, and quitting would mean turning around.
The foundation is a 26mm internal-width carbon rim, designed to support modern high-volume gravel tires at lower pressures. That width delivers stability and confidence when the terrain turns ugly, letting the tire do its job instead of bouncing off every rock. Each rim weighs just 380 grams, striking a balance between strength, compliance, and weight where it actually matters.
Power transfer comes from Boyd’s Grade 36 hubs, built with a 10-degree ratchet engagement that’s quick enough for technical climbs and punchy terrain without sacrificing durability. When you need to ratchet through rocks or restart on a loose incline, the Reiver responds instantly—no dead zones, no drama.
The build leans intentionally toward reliability: Pillar TB2016 J-bend spokes and brass nipples were chosen for toughness and serviceability. This is a wheelset meant to survive rough lines, loaded bikes, and long days far from home—not just one race weekend. Features:
