With Interbike missing from the calendar, more companies than ever were using the 2019 Sea Otter Classic to show new products. Wheel companies certainly were no exception to this trend, with brands big and small showing off their latest wheels, many of which were aimed at the gravel movement.

Reynolds Cycling
Reynolds has its ATR (All Terrain Road) wheel line based around a 446g, 23mm wide and 40mm deep rim, a slightly wider version of the ATR wheelset we first saw in 2015. At Sea Otter, it showed off its top-shelf Blacklabel version of the wheelset.

The $2,099 Reynolds Blacklabel ATR carbon wheelset features a Reynolds / Industry 9 hubset and four fewer front spokes.

The wheelset tips the scales at 1,526g, about 100g weight savings over the $1,549 ATR 700 X, or about 150g over the $1299 ATR 700 wheelsets built around the same rim.

The company also offers a 650b size with the same width rim. The Blacklabel ATR 650 wheelset is about 70g lighter than the 700c version, at 1,456g.
