Nextie Wheels with DT Swiss Hubs

Gravel in depth

Nextie ARX-W 35 wheels on DT Swiss 180 Straight Pull Disc hubs

Our gravel pick from the Nextie and DT Swiss parts we build with. The Nextie ARX-W 35 is a hooked carbon rim, 25mm inside, 35mm deep, about 350 grams in 700c, sized for about 35 to 50mm tires. We lace it to DT Swiss 180 Straight Pull Disc hubs in 24 hole.

• Test results in public. Nextie publishes lab figures for some rims, including stiffness tables and a spoke hole test. On the Ocean 45G it reports 300 kgf at the spoke holes with no cracks or deformation.
• SINC ceramic bearings on the 180. The 180 pairs Ratchet EXP with ceramic bearings where the 240 uses steel. DT Swiss credits them with low friction and low rolling resistance.

Nextie AM 40 wheels on DT Swiss 180 Straight Pull Disc hubs

Our mountain pick from the Nextie and DT Swiss parts we build with. The Nextie AM 40 is a hookless carbon rim, 34mm inside, 32mm deep, about 475 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.4 to 2.8 inch tires. We lace it to DT Swiss 180 Straight Pull Disc hubs in 28 hole.

• Carbon and coverage that step up by edition. Standard rims are all T700 with a 2-year warranty, Premium adds T800 with 3 years, and Supreme adds fibers like T1000 with 5 years. Nextie says it tuned these mixes over rounds of testing for impact resistance.
• Ratchet EXP on the 240 and 180. One ratchet is combined with the threaded ring, leaving fewer parts and less weight. The drive-side bearing moves into that ring too, which widens the bearing spacing, and DT Swiss says this adds 15 percent axle stiffness and longer bearing life.

Nextie CRX 33 wheels on DT Swiss 180 Straight Pull Disc hubs

Our road pick from the Nextie and DT Swiss parts we build with. The Nextie CRX 33 is a hooked carbon rim, 21mm inside, 33mm deep, about 335 grams in 700c, sized for about 28 to 38mm tires. We lace it to DT Swiss 180 Straight Pull Disc hubs in 24 hole.

• The original Ratchet System on the 350. Two conical springs keep both ratchets aligned. DT Swiss calls it marginally heavier than Ratchet EXP, and the hub shell and axle on the current 350 have been reworked to cut weight.
