DT SWISS front wheel 28" GRC 1400 Dicut Center Lock 50 mm | 12x100 mm thru axle
Compromises are not your thing - you want perfection? Then rely on the GRC 1400 Gravel wheels from DT Swiss and be impressed by their positive characteristics on your off-road adventures. Designed for wide tires and fully trimmed for aerodynamics, you can really pick up the pace with them and easily leave the competition behind you. Thanks to the carefully considered selection of components and the typically high manufacturing quality, they guarantee you the best functionality and a long service life.
GRC 50 mm carbon rim
Carbon has also become the first choice of rim material at DT Swiss, with the Swiss company implementing a new concept in the production process that makes additional coating unnecessary. This saves weight and achieves an exceptional surface finish. 50 mm high flanks ensure extremely good aerodynamic values, so that high speeds are possible without any problems, especially on flat slopes.Externally, the rim shape was developed according to the DT Swiss AERO+ concept and shows its advantages especially in crosswinds. Air currents hitting at an angle create a sailing effect, which gives you additional propulsion and allows you to save power. The internal nipples also increase the streamlining effect and give the wheel a clean look.
Thanks to the enormous 24 mm inner width, even large-volume tires are perfectly supported, which prevents them from buckling in fast bends and ensures more riding stability and better damping capacity. In addition, the rim is of course designed for tubeless systems, allowing you to ride with lower air pressure and further improving comfort and grip.
DT Swiss 240 Dicut hub
At the center is the proven DT Swiss 240 hub in the elegant Dicut design. Its legendary status is based on its ultimate reliability and its high stiffness ensures direct and precise steering behavior. The patented two-in-one spoke mounts give the hub a slim shape and support the wheel with its good aerodynamic values. It also impresses with its low weight and ensures a long service life and low maintenance thanks to the perfectly sealed bearings.
DT Swiss Aero Comp Straightpull spokes with Pro Lock nipples
Thanks to their blade shape, the spokes also give the wind little surface to attack and thus support the good aerodynamics of the wheel. The middle section was flattened using the cold forging process and also ensures high material strength. The straight design and the elimination of the highly stressed spoke bend also eliminates a potential breakage point and minimizes susceptibility to punctures.
In the Pro Lock process, a patented two-component adhesive is injected into the nipple thread, enabling the construction of extremely durable wheels. As soon as the nipples are screwed in, the adhesive is activated and hardens completely at room temperature after approx. 6 - 7 hours. Repeated re-centering is still possible without any problems, although the adhesive strength decreases slightly each time.
