DT SWISS rear hub 240 EXP Classic Center Lock 12x142 mm thru axle | Shimano Road
Lighter, stiffer, more precise and easier to maintain - these are the strengths of the new DT Swiss 240 hubs. These properties have been achieved thanks to Ratchet EXP technology. This not only means that the hubs have fewer components and therefore lower weight and less wear, it also allows the bearing to be positioned much further out on the drive side. The greater distance between the bearings results in greater hub rigidity, lower bearing loads and therefore greater durability. The stiffness on the hub body serves to distribute the load more evenly on the spokes. Drive and braking forces are transmitted even better from both spoke flanges to all spokes. One-sided load peaks are prevented, which protects the hub, spokes and rim. The super reliable sprocket freehub system with its large contact surface and 36 engagement points ensures extremely direct and reliable power transmission.
DT Swiss hubs stand for simple construction and maximum reliability. Thanks to the use of elaborate seals and bearing sizes adapted to the loads, the hubs do not require any adjustment of the bearing play. This means that the rider does not have to worry about the function of the hubs for years! Should a service be necessary after tens of thousands of kilometers, the hubs can be disassembled and serviced within a few minutes without special tools thanks to the DT Swiss plug-in system.
