Manufactured entirely in Switzerland using a unique ultrasonic peening process, these spokes are not only lightweight but also incredibly strong, providing a perfect balance between durability and weight savings. Made from custom-blended Swedish X5 stainless steel, the materials are carefully selected to ensure exceptional resistance to wear and corrosion, extending the lifespan of your wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe double-butted design features a 1.8 mm thickness in the center to reduce weight, while the ends are reinforced to 2 mm where strength is critical. This thoughtful engineering guarantees optimal tension distribution and reliability under various riding conditions. The rolled nipple threads preserve the grain of the material, minimizing the risk of failure—a common problem in lower-quality spokes. Whether you are a commuter, a casual rider, or a World Cup Downhiller, these spokes provide trusted performance that adapts to your needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnsuring a lightweight yet robust wheel build for all types of cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProviding excellent strength-to-weight ratio thanks to ultrasonic peening technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnhancing wheel durability with corrosion-resistant Swedish X5 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing spoke thread failures through precision rolling techniques\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOffering versatility suitable for commuting, racing, and downhill biking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s NOT Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse in non-standard spoke lengths or widths outside the 301 mm specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApplications requiring spokes heavier than 15 gauge or thicker than 2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement in wheels built with incompatible nipple threading systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSituations where ultra-lightweight carbon or exotic material spokes are preferred\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre these spokes compatible with all types of wheels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are designed for standard 14\/15 gauge double-butted spokes and work best with wheels that accept 2 mm thread nipples and 301 mm lengths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes DT Swiss spokes stronger than others?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ultrasonic peening process cold-forges the spokes, strengthening the metal rather than weakening it as conventional stretching methods do, resulting in superior strength-to-weight performance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DT Swiss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45510024626351,"sku":"SK301D","price":64.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/2003\/4223\/files\/1361227675-51003600.jpg?v=1768524008","url":"https:\/\/www.swinnertoncycles.co.uk\/products\/dt-swiss-competition-silver-double-butted-spokes-14-15-gauge-301-mm-box-100","provider":"Swinnerton Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
