Downhill mountain bikers demand confidence in their equipment. So, DT Swiss has produced a DH wheel that meets all the requirements of gravity MTB.
The 560 rim benefits from a welded finish at the ends of the profile which demonstrates the Swiss brand's desire to offer maximum reliability. The 30mm inner width offers an impressive platform for complete confidence, plus, the volume of the tyre is increased to give the option of more grip with less pressure if required.
The top-of-the-range 240 hub is equipped with a bigger space between the bearings to increase their lifespan. The straight spring allows direct engagement which reduces the effects of wear. There is a 6-bolt disc mount.
DT Swiss Competition cold forged spokes are more resistant and lighter thanks to their variable thickness.
This is a real DH and freeride oriented wheel to enjoy on the gnarliest tracks and trails.
