Crafted entirely in-house in Biel, Switzerland, these spokes reflect a legacy of quality and meticulous workmanship. Designed with a double-butted profile—2 mm thick at the ends for strength and 1.8 mm thick in the center to reduce weight—they strike the perfect balance between durability and lightness, making them ideal for a wide range of cycling disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUtilizing a patented ultrasonic peening process, each spoke undergoes cold forging that actually strengthens the metal rather than weakening it, ensuring the highest strength-to-weight ratio available in butted spokes. Made exclusively from a custom blend of Swedish X5 stainless steel, these spokes offer exceptional resistance to fatigue and corrosion, enhancing longevity and performance. The precision-rolled nipple threads maintain the integrity of the spoke material, reducing the risk of thread failure—a common problem in lower-quality alternatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you’re a commuter, a competitive rider, or a downhill enthusiast, DT Swiss Competition spokes provide dependable strength and lightweight efficiency that won’t let you down.
