These spokes are made entirely in-house using Swedish X5 stainless steel, custom blended to ensure exceptional durability and performance. The classic 14 \/ 15 gauge double butted design features a 1.8 mm thick center to reduce weight and a robust 2 mm thickness at the ends for maximum strength, ideal for a wide range of cycling applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets DT Swiss spokes apart is their patented ultrasonic peening process, which cold forges the metal to enhance its strength rather than weakening it as traditional methods do. This results in an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, making these spokes a trusted choice for everyone from daily commuters to professional downhill racers. Additionally, the nipple threads are rolled instead of cut, preserving the spoke’s grain structure and greatly reducing the risk of failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're upgrading your wheelset or repairing your bike, these 258 mm spokes come in a box of 100 and offer reliability and performance you can count on.
