Building on a legacy that began in 1994 with the original Hügi ratchet rear hub, this model delivers unmatched precision, reliability, and performance tailored for demanding cyclists. Its sleek black finish and 24-hole configuration ensure compatibility with a wide range of wheel builds, making it a versatile choice for riders seeking both durability and efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the 240 EXP is the advanced Ratchet EXP system, a refined evolution of DT Swiss's renowned twin-ratchet mechanism. By relocating the drive-side bearing inside the inner 36-tooth ratchet, the design reduces moving parts and increases bearing width for enhanced stiffness and longevity. This results in a hub that is up to 20% lighter than its predecessor, without compromising strength or durability. The precision-machined hub shell, axle, and end caps contribute to this remarkable weight reduction while maintaining robust performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is effortless thanks to the No-Tool system, allowing quick and easy servicing with machined end caps engineered for swift removal. The custom-made DT steel bearings continue to offer legendary long-term durability and simple replacement, ensuring your hub remains dependable ride after ride.
