Featuring a bespoke 30 mm wide carbon rim, this third-generation Spline 1 wheelset elevates DT Swiss's signature system to new heights, offering exceptional ride quality for the most demanding terrain. Engineered for high-impact riding typical of Enduro World Series conditions, the EXC is built to withstand tough impacts while remaining impressively light for those uphill efforts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the core of this wheelset are the Ratchet EXP 240 hubs, DT Swiss’s lightest and most reliable hubs to date. These hubs reduce moving parts and widen bearing spacing, significantly increasing stiffness, bearing life, and decreasing drag. Maintenance is effortless with tool-free servicing, even on the trail. Complementing these hubs are the Swiss-made Comp Race spokes, thinned to 1.6 mm for weight reduction without sacrificing resilience. This combination provides a smooth, damped ride that offsets the added stiffness of carbon rims, ensuring comfort and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen purchased as a pair, the wheelset includes both Shimano MICRO SPLINE and SRAM XD freehubs, tubeless tape, and premium lightweight tubeless valves, allowing seamless compatibility and ready-to-ride performance out of the box.
