DT Swiss Competition silver spokes combine centuries of expertise with modern engineering to deliver unmatched quality and durability. Crafted entirely in Switzerland, these spokes reflect over 350 years of precision steel drawing in Biel, ensuring each piece meets the highest standards of workmanship. Their unique double-butted design offers an ideal balance of weight savings and strength, making them a trusted choice for riders across all disciplines.
At 14 / 15 gauge, these spokes measure 1.8 mm in the center for lightweight performance and 2 mm at the ends to provide reinforced strength where it’s needed most. Unlike other brands that weaken their spokes by stretching to create this profile, DT Swiss uses a patented ultrasonic peening process that cold-forges the metal, enhancing its strength without compromising weight.
Made exclusively from custom-blended Swedish X5 stainless steel, these spokes are built to last. The rolling nipple thread process preserves the metal’s grain, significantly reducing failure risks at the threads—a common weak point in lower-quality spokes. Whether you’re a commuter or a World Cup Downhill racer, DT Swiss Competition spokes offer reliability and performance you can count on.
Are these spokes compatible with all wheel types?
They are designed primarily for wheels that accept 14 / 15 gauge double-butted spokes of 276 mm length. Compatibility depends on your specific wheel build.
What makes DT Swiss spokes stronger than others?
DT Swiss uses a patented ultrasonic peening process that cold-forges the spokes, enhancing their strength without adding weight, unlike traditional stretching methods.
