A budget-friendly rear wheel option for riders who want the DT Swiss F572's proven freeride rim profile matched to a reliable Shimano hub — and who are running a 12-speed Shimano Microspline drivetrain. The FH-TC500 hub is an affordable, trail-ready option from Shimano that delivers a stiff 12mm E-THRU axle interface, Centrelock disc mounting, and dual-layer sealing at a price point that makes this build accessible for most riders.

  • DT Swiss F572: 30mm inner width, sleeved alloy, built for freeride and trail abuse
  • Shimano FH-TC500: 12mm E-THRU, Boost 148mm, Microspline freehub, Centrelock disc
  • Labyrinth and contact sealing for extended bearing service intervals on muddy tracks

Important compatibility note: the FH-TC500 hub uses a Shimano Microspline freehub and is designed specifically for Shimano 12-speed cassettes with a 10-tooth top sprocket. It is not compatible with 11-speed Shimano HG cassettes or SRAM XD/XDR cassettes. If you need XD or HG compatibility, see our other F572 builds.

Compatible with Boost 148mm frames with Centrelock disc brakes. Shimano 12-speed drivetrain only. Handbuilt in Australia by Tune Cycles.
