WTB Wheels with DT Swiss Hubs

Gravel in depth

WTB KOM Tough TCS 2.0 CVX I 25 wheels on DT Swiss 240 Disc Centerlock hubs

Our gravel pick from the WTB and DT Swiss parts we build with. The WTB KOM Tough TCS 2.0 CVX I 25 is a hooked aluminum rim, 25mm inside, 17.6mm deep, about 485 grams in 700c, sized for about 35 to 50mm tires. We lace it to DT Swiss 240 Disc Centerlock hubs in 32 hole.

• Solid Strip in TCS 2.0. A strip sits in a recessed channel under the tubeless tape, which stops the tape sagging at the spoke holes. The tire then seals against a smooth, consistent surface.
• 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.

Mountain in depth

WTB KOM Tough TCS 2.0 CVX I 35 wheels on DT Swiss 240 Disc Centerlock hubs

Our mountain pick from the WTB and DT Swiss parts we build with. The WTB KOM Tough TCS 2.0 CVX I 35 is a hooked aluminum rim, 35mm inside, 17.6mm deep, about 577 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.4 to 2.8 inch tires. We lace it to DT Swiss 240 Disc Centerlock hubs in 32 hole.

• I-Beam support. An I-shaped wall inside the rim cavity adds radial and lateral rigidity, and KOM Tough rims use two of them. HTZ rims pair the I-Beam with walls WTB says are 25 to 30 percent thicker than its standard rims, for the extra weight of e-bikes.
• 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.

Fat bike in depth

WTB KOM Light TCS I 76 wheels on DT Swiss 240 Disc Centerlock hubs

Our fat bike pick from the WTB and DT Swiss parts we build with. The WTB KOM Light TCS I 76 is a hooked aluminum rim, 76mm inside, 14.9mm deep, about 831 grams in 27.5 inch, sized for about 3.8 to 5 inch fat bike tires. We lace it to DT Swiss 240 Disc Centerlock hubs in 32 hole.

• CVX spoke bed. On the rims with CVX in the name, WTB's patented shape thickens the spoke bed where it is needed and removes material where it is not. It also gives the nipple head more contact with the rim to reduce stress at the spoke hole.
• Tooth counts you can change. Ratchet System hubs start at 36 teeth and can be changed to 18, 24, 36 SL or 54 SL, while Ratchet EXP uses 36 or 54. More teeth mean less pedal travel before the hub catches, so you can tune it to your riding after the wheel is built.
