DT Swiss Wheels with DT Swiss Hubs

Gravel in depth

DT Swiss GR 531 gravel wheels on DT Swiss 350 hubs

Our most-built DT Swiss pair. The GR 531 is the lighter of DT's two alloy gravel rims: 24mm inside for 35 to 53mm tires, and it also takes a 33mm cross tire. Its sleeved joint is strong at the seam, and its tubeless bed seats with a floor pump on most tires. Light enough that the wheel spins up quickly on gravel climbs.

• Teeth, not pawls. DT's Ratchet System engages all 36 teeth of two star ratchets at once, and the ratchets can be swapped for 54 SL later for quicker pickup. The end caps and freehub pull off by hand for service.
• 6-bolt or Centerlock. The 350 disc pair is about 164 and 283 grams in 6-bolt, 144 and 259 grams in Centerlock, with end caps for your axle standard.
• Or the G 540. Deeper with heavier walls than the GR 531, rated by DT for tires up to 53mm: our pick for rocky roads, bikepacking loads and mixed-surface touring.

DT Swiss EX 511 wheels on DT Swiss 350 hubs

DT's welded enduro rim on its own disc hub. The EX 511 is 30mm inside for 2.4 to 2.6 inch tires, welded and eyeletless, from 550 grams, in 29 and 27.5 inch. DT says it put the technology from many Enduro World Series wins into it.

• PHR washers. They spread each nipple's load and pivot to line the nipple up with the spoke, cutting the risk of a broken spoke or cracked rim.
• 6-bolt or Centerlock. The Centerlock 350s are about 144 grams front and 259 grams rear; the 6-bolt pair about 164 and 283. The ratchets, bearings and freehub are the same.
• Teeth, not pawls. DT's Ratchet System engages all 36 teeth of two star ratchets at once, and the ratchets can be swapped for 54 SL later for quicker pickup. The end caps and freehub pull off by hand for service.

DT Swiss RR 511 wheels on DT Swiss 350 hubs

DT's stiff, semi-aero rim-brake road rim on its own star-ratchet hub. The RR 511 is welded, 32mm deep and about 530 grams, with no eyelets, rated to 130 kg of system weight. The rim-brake 350 is about 149 grams front and 252 grams rear, 5x100 front and 5x130 or 5x135 rear quick release.

• Welded, no eyelets. DT rates the welded seam as the most resistant joint it offers in aluminum.
• Washers that spread the load. DT's PHR washers spread each nipple's load over more of the rim and pivot to line the nipple up with the spoke.
• More than a road rim. DT says it also suits gravel and cyclocross on tubeless tires. It is not approved for e-bikes.
• Teeth, not pawls. DT's Ratchet System engages all 36 teeth of two star ratchets at once, and the ratchets can be swapped for 54 SL later for quicker pickup. The end caps and freehub pull off by hand for service.
