The DT Swiss HX 531 is purpose-built for the demands of e-mountain biking. Heavier bikes and added motor torque put extra strain on a wheel, so the HX 531 is reinforced for strength with a 150 kg system-weight rating and an ASTM Category 4 classification.

Highlights

  • e-MTB specific: ASTM 4, 150 kg max system weight
  • 36-hole drilling spreads load for heavy e-bike builds
  • 30 mm internal width for high-volume tyres (47–90 mm)
  • Welded joint and non-eyelet PHR spoke bed
  • Tubeless Ready

Built for the extra demands of e-MTB

The combination of a higher 36-spoke count, a welded rim joint and DT Swiss Pro Head Reinforcement (PHR) gives the HX 531 the durability to cope with the mass and power of an e-MTB. The 30 mm internal width supports wide, high-grip tyres at the lower pressures e-bikes thrive on.
