This is a BELOW COST deal to our riders to help train our new wheel builder.  We want to get Noah up to speed in time for shuttles to open and the best way for him to learn is by punching through a few wheel builds.

FAQs

• We've chosen the strongest DT Swiss parts to make the most battle-ready wheelsets perfect for eMTB
• All wheels will be built by Noah but checked over by our experienced wheel builders
• Noah has 3-months of experience with us and has already mastered the art of lacing
• Do we expect problems? No, but new wheel builders are prone to scratching the spoke against the rim so there may be some minor blemishes.
• If we're not happy with the build 

ABOUT THE WHEELS

This is the strongest MTB wheelset we can make.  Using the DT hybrid platform it's built for the punishment handed by eMTB motors.

The sport has grown, the needs have changed and that's precisely what our range represents. DT Swiss has redeveloped and reimagined it's Hybrid line in order to keep up with the new demands of hybrid mountain bike riders.  Stronger rims to reduce cracking at the nipple.

Compared to conventional MTBs, eMTBs enable longer tours, rides to previously inaccessible spots, groups with varying levels of rider strength. Thus eMTBs extend the scope of movement, group strength, experience, thereby strengthening a rider’s freedom. As eMTBs have continued to evolve, not only the riding experience but also the performance has extended significantly in recent years.

More powerful electric motors, bigger batteries and a paradigm shift in user behavior have led to an increase in loads and thus in the requirements for eMTBs. DT Swiss has therefore completely revised the Hybrid MTB wheels.

DT Swiss 350 MTB Hybrid Hub

Due to the battery and motor, eMTBs tend to weigh more than traditional MTBs of the same category. eMTBs are not ridden less hard; in fact the opposite is often the case, as tours are longer and the load on the components increases. In addition, the transmitted torque of the motor is higher than with conventional MTBs. The hub shell was completely redesigned for the new hybrid generation with these points in mind.

These hubs are availalbe with 6-bolt disc brakes.

Front axle: Boost 15/110

Rotor Options: 6-Bolt rotors

Rear Axle Options: Boost 12/142mm or Super Boost 12/157mm

Freehub body: Star Ratchet to suit Shimano, Microspline or SRAM XD

Possible Upgrades:

• 54T Star Ratchet for faster engaement
• Ceramic Bearings

DT Swiss Welded Aluminium Rims

All of these rims share the same technology.  What differers is the rim width to suit different tyre widths and the strength to hande harder terrain.

If you like running ~2.5" tyres then 30mm wide rims are best for you.
