DT Swiss GR 531 DT Swiss 180 wheelset — built by DT Swiss

A DT Swiss GR 531 rim set laced 24-spoke front and rear to DT Swiss 180 straight-pull hubs — DT's lightest hub, Ratchet EXP 36 and SINC ceramic bearings. DT Swiss builds each wheelset to order through Apollo, the Australian DT distributor: laced, tensioned and trued by DT. Allow about 14 days from order to dispatch.

Before you order — what your bike decides

• Wheel size — 700c or 650b. Read it off your tyre sidewall.
• Rear axle — 12 × 142 only on this wheelset: measure the inside of the dropouts.
• Front axle — 12 × 100: check the fork lowers.
• Rotor mount — Centre Lock only (DT makes the 180 in Centre Lock): use Centre Lock rotors, or a Centre Lock to 6-bolt adapter.
• Cassette — the freehub body follows it: Shimano 11-speed road (and GRX 11-speed) is HG; SRAM AXS road and XPLR 12/13-speed is XDR. Offered here: Shimano HG 11-speed road or SRAM XDR.

Who it is for

For gravel racing, adventure riding and all-road miles on a 12 × 100 / 12 × 142 Centre Lock gravel or road-disc bike.

The rider's questions

• How much can it carry? Max system weight (rider, bike and gear) 130 kg — the DT Swiss GR 531 rating.
• What tyres fit? 32–50 mm tyres are DT's recommended range for a 24 mm inner width; the tyre's own maximum pressure applies, the rim sets none.
• E-bike? DT approves the 180 hubs for e-bikes up to 32 km/h or 250 W.
• How fast does the hub engage? 36 points of engagement — Ratchet EXP 36, 10° between clicks.
• Warranty? DT Swiss parts 24 months from purchase. Any claim comes back to Tune Cycles — see the Warranty tab.
• How long does it take? About 14 days: DT builds it to order, then we send it on to you.

Everything in the Wheelset box is part of the build. Choose each dropdown: nothing is pre-selected. The valves in the Upgrades box are optional — leave them at 0 if you already have some, and the price adjusts.

Sold separately (shown with this kit): tubeless sealant, Centre Lock rotors, a cassette for your freehub body and tyres to suit (sizes above).

If you are unsure what your frame, fork or drivetrain takes, ask us before you order.
