The DT Swiss RR 481 DB in 650b is a wide, tough aluminium rim built for the rough stuff. The smaller 584 diameter pairs with high-volume tyres for extra grip and comfort on gravel and all-road, and a 130kg max system weight makes it a confident choice for loaded riding and bikepacking.

Highlights

  • 650b (584) diameter, ideal for high-volume gravel and all-road tyres
  • Wide 22mm internal width for a stable, comfortable tyre profile
  • Robust aluminium build rated to 130kg system weight
  • Hooked tubeless-ready (TC) bed for low-pressure grip and puncture resistance
  • 24 hole drilling for lighter performance wheels

Construction

The RR 481 uses a welded aluminium rim joint and the non-eyelet DT Swiss PHR (Pro Head Reinforcement) washer system, which spreads spoke load across the rim wall for durability under rough-road abuse. The 25mm-deep, 26mm-wide profile gives a stable platform for wide tyres.

Compatibility & fit

This rim is disc-brake specific (no braking surface) and built for 650b / 584 (27.5") wheels. It is hooked tubeless-ready and uses a Presta valve. Pair it with 24-hole DT Swiss or compatible disc hubs and a tubeless gravel or all-road tyre. DT Swiss Squorx Pro Lock nipples and PHR washers are 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.
