Crafted in Switzerland with over 350 years of expertise, these spokes are made entirely in-house to ensure exceptional quality and durability. The classic lightweight double-butted design makes them ideal for a wide range of cycling applications, trusted by everyone from daily commuters to professional World Cup Downhill racers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing a 14\/15 gauge thickness, these spokes measure 1.8 mm at the center to reduce weight while maintaining 2 mm thickness at the ends for maximum strength. Unlike other brands that weaken spokes by stretching them, DT Swiss uses a patented ultrasonic peening process that cold forges the metal, enhancing its strength and delivering the best strength-to-weight ratio among butted spokes. Made from Swedish X5 stainless steel, custom blended exclusively for DT, these spokes also benefit from a rolled nipple thread that preserves the metal grain, significantly reducing the risk of thread failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReliable performance for all types of cycling, from commuting to competitive downhill racing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight design that balances strength and weight for efficient riding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExceptional durability thanks to ultrasonic peening and superior material quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatibility with various wheel builds requiring 291 mm length spokes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduced risk of spoke failure due to advanced thread rolling technique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s NOT Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApplications requiring spokes thicker than 2 mm or different length specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiders needing spokes made from alternative materials or custom blends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-standard wheel builds that do not fit 291 mm spokes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUsers seeking pre-laced wheels rather than individual spokes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre these spokes suitable for all types of bikes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese DT Swiss Competition spokes are versatile and suitable for a wide range of bikes, including road, mountain, and downhill bikes, as long as the spoke length and gauge fit your wheel build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes these spokes stronger than others?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe patented ultrasonic peening process cold forges the spokes, enhancing the metal's strength without compromising weight, making them stronger and more reliable than many competitors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DT Swiss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45510024298671,"sku":"SK291D","price":64.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/2003\/4223\/files\/1361227671-95862700.jpg?v=1768524013","url":"https:\/\/www.swinnertoncycles.co.uk\/products\/dt-swiss-competition-silver-spokes-14-15g-2-1-8mm-291mm-box-of-100","provider":"Swinnerton Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
