The DT Swiss RR 481 DB SBWT rim combines premium craftsmanship with versatile design, perfect for all-road and cyclocross enthusiasts. With a generous 22 mm internal diameter, it comfortably accommodates 30-35c cyclocross, gravel, and commuting tires, offering excellent grip and stability across various surfaces. Available in both 29" (700c) and 650B sizes, this rim caters to the modern multi-surface adventure bike rider seeking reliability and performance.
Designed with Strength Boost Welding Technology, the rim features a seamless, durable join that enhances its structural integrity without adding extra weight. Its black coating is crafted through a unique process to ensure toughness and longevity, while the included PHR washers and convex Squorx nipples optimize spoke alignment, increasing stiffness and durability. Thanks to its presta-drilled design and compatibility with tubeless setups or standard clinchers, the RR 481 DB SBWT rim offers flexibility to suit your preferred tire system.
Unlike lightweight XC mountain bike rims often repurposed for gravel use, these rims are engineered specifically for road pressures, making them ideal for bikepacking, light touring, or daily commuting. If you’re looking for even wider options for aggressive gravel riding, explore the DT Swiss GR 521 with a 24 mm internal width, designed for 35c+ tires. Discover the full range of DT Swiss rims and components to complement your setup.
Can I use the RR 481 rim with tubeless tires?
Yes, the RR 481 is primarily designed for tubeless use but can also be used with standard clinchers and inner tubes, providing great versatility.
