DT SWISS Quick Release RWS Road Steel
The innovative wheel securing system from DT Swiss! Instead of the developed for racing bikes over 80 year old eccentric principle, the RWS, the clamping force is built up by tightening a bolt with a lever.
The operation is very simple: the tensioner by rotating the lever clockwise as tight as possible by hand tighten (min 15 Nm.). Depending on the frame or fork construction this can be made by repeatedly moving the lever. Then put the lever and rotate to the desired position - the wheel is fixed securely and strong.
The direct transmission of leverage on the thread can be achieved with the RWS is up to 50% more clamping force than with conventional quick release. This is not only safer, but also increases the stiffness, which is particularly noticeable with disc brakes.
Milled aluminum lever in slim shape - dirt resistant and very easy to use.
Note: The lever for tightening is firmly integrated into the axle.
