The DT Swiss HX 531 is a heavy-duty aluminium rim purpose-built for the extra mass and torque of e-MTB and hybrid riding, giving you a strong, dependable wheel that stands up to the demands of motor-assisted trail miles.
Highlights
- 30mm internal width tuned for modern wide e-MTB tyres
- 36-hole drilling for maximum wheel strength under heavy loads
- Welded joint and non-eyelet PHR spoke bed for strength and reliable tubeless sealing
- Tubeless Ready (TC) with Presta valve compatibility
- ASTM Category 4 rated and e-bike approved (pedelec, max. 32 km/h or max. 250 W)
Built for e-MTB
Designed around the higher loads of pedal-assist riding, the HX 531 carries extra strength to handle the torque of an e-MTB drivetrain and the additional weight of motor and battery. The welded joint creates a smooth, consistent braking and sealing surface, while the non-eyelet PHR (Pro Head Reinforcement) spoke bed adds durability where spoke tension is highest. The 36-hole drilling distributes load across more spokes for the toughest builds. With a 30mm internal width it supports wide e-MTB tyres from 47 to 90 mm and a pressure range of 2 to 4.7 bar.
Compatibility & fit
This is the 29"/622 diameter in a 36-hole drilling. It is disc-specific (no braking surface) and Tubeless Ready with a Presta valve. Build it into a disc-brake e-MTB or hybrid wheelset using 36 spokes.
DT Swiss covers this rim with a 24-month warranty against material and manufacturing defects from the date of purchase. Normal wear items, including tubeless tape, are not covered. The DT Swiss crash-replacement (Fair Share) programme applies to carbon rims only and does not apply to this aluminium rim.
