DT Swiss XR 1501 Spline One 25mm MTB Rear Wheel
Description
This XR model has been updated to feature a wider 25mm internal width that's specifically designed for lightweight cross-country tyres from 1.90-2.25 inches wide. DT Swiss has redesigned this rear wheel from the ground up in order to attain its additional width without compromising its racing performance. The result is a custom asymmetrical design that's unique to the XR. Combined with the super light Spline 1 hubs, DT has created a wide, stiff wheel that's coupled with the benefits of wider rims in terms of comfort, technical handling and climbing traction makes these a game-changer for today's more technical XC courses. 240s derived hubs are the lightest MTB hubs DT Swiss have ever made and come with DT's legendarily durable stainless steel bearings and a 36 tooth ratchet for faster engagement as standard. PHR (Pro Head Reinforcement) rim interface system allows the spokes to align themselves perfectly and combined with straight pull hubs ensures a super stiff and light structure with a greater fatigue life than is possible with traditional spokes and nipples. Laced with DT's renowned Swiss-made butted Comp spokes for a great balance of toughness and low weight. From top level World Cup XC to winning both the 2014 and 2015 EWS series titles, no other wheel system has a stronger pedigree at the highest levels of mountain biking.
