The DT Swiss M 502 is the economical alloy rim that brings a genuinely wide, low-weight build to All-Mountain riding without the premium price. With a 30mm internal width and a sleeve-joined aluminium body, it is built to take a beating across XC, All-Mountain and Enduro terrain - equally at home on a front or rear wheel build.

Highlights

  • Wide 30mm internal profile for confident tyre support and traction
  • Tubeless Ready for lower pressures and fewer flats
  • Lightweight build with a great wide-to-price ratio
  • ASTM Category 4 rated and e-bike approved
  • Disc-specific design with no redundant brake track

Construction

The M 502 uses a sleeve-joined rim — the value-series trade-off that keeps the price down while delivering a wide, capable profile. A conventional silver eyelet spoke bed reinforces each spoke hole for reliable, serviceable wheel builds. It is positioned as the economical alloy option in the DT Swiss M-series, prized for its low-weight, wide and low-price ratio.

Compatibility & fit

The M 502 has a 30mm internal and 35mm outer width and a 20mm rim depth. It is disc-specific (no rim-brake track) and Tubeless Ready with a hooked bead, using Presta valves. Available in 27.5"/650B and 29"/700C diameters and in 28H and 32H drillings - the same rim works for front or rear builds, so match your hub hole count and wheel size. Supplied as a rim only — nipples, washers and tubeless tape are not included.

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.

For any warranty support, please return the item to Tune Cycles and our team will handle the claim on your behalf.
