Front DT Swiss EX511 Rim

 

Rear DT Swiss FR541 Rim

The FR 541 may not be your first rim, but it aspires to be the last. The new rim shape improves the impact resistance, enabling you to push a little harder on the trails. It also enhances the pinch flat protection for a trusty ride on rougher tracks. Build this rim with care and it will reward you with resistance and lightness for a long-lasting bond.

Industry Nine Hydra Rear Hubs

Hydra Classic mountain hubs are loaded with features every rider will appreciate such as revolutionary 0.52° engagement, generously low weights and an intuitive layout that can be serviced without any proprietary tools. Our range boasts a universe of standard options in terms of axle fit, spoke hole drillings, disc rotor mounting, freehub bodies, and colours.

Competition Spokes

This is one of the most versatile spokes in the DT Swiss spoke range. DT Competition gets its special strength from cold forging. This makes it not only extremely durable but thanks to the thinner middle section, it is 48 g lighter than a spoke with a constant diameter of 1.8 mm. The balanced relation between strength and weight of its 2.0 mm counterpart allows for a wide range of uses, from road wheels to super-light Enduro MTB wheels. Weight: from 311 g for 64 spokes at a length of 264 mm.

Squorx Prolock Nipples

Pro Lock is a process where a dual compound, adhesive liquid is injected into the nipple thread, allowing for extremely durable wheel builds. By threading the nipple onto the spoke the adhesive is activated and starts to harden. Re-truing the wheel is still possible after the adhesive has hardened completely, with only a minimal decrease of its thread-lock function.

 

DT Swiss FR541 Rim

  • IMPROVED PINCHFLAT PROTECTION
    Tests conducted with a leading tire supplier showed a 17% increase in pinch flat resistance compared to the previous FR 560 rim.
  • AVAILABLE IN 29" AND 650B WITH 28 OR 32 SPOKE COUNT
    Ride in full 29", full 27,5" or mullet. The FR 541 is available in both sizes and both sizes are available in 28 or 32 spoke count.
  • WELDED RIM
    The welding process on aluminum rims is the most resistant joining method of the DT Swiss aluminum portfolio.
  • INCREASE RESISTANCE WITH PHR SYSTEM
    The PHR system increases the load-bearing surface of the nipples on the rim and reduces localized stresses.
  • PERSONALIZE YOUR RIDE
    The FR 541 comes with three additional stickers to match your style.
