DT SWISS rear hub 240 Hybrid 6-hole | 12x148 mm Boost | Shimano MTB
DT Swiss hubs enjoy a reputation for being virtually indestructible. Thanks to high-quality industrial bearings made of stainless steel and effective seals, they are actually much more resistant than most competitors on the market. Simply unpack, install in the bike and forget about it. The hubs are also designed to be extremely user-friendly, so there is no need to adjust bearing play and maintenance intervals are only necessary at long intervals, if at all. Should a service be necessary after thousands of kilometers, they can be disassembled and serviced within a few minutes without special tools thanks to the DT Swiss plug-in system.
The hybrid version of the 240 hub is a synonym for indestructible. Specially developed for the high loads on E-bikes, it will also perform reliably on expedition and touring bikes. Compared to the standard version, the oversized housing is particularly striking. This can better absorb and distribute the forces that occur. Together with the enlarged bearings and the stable heavy-duty axle, it also ensures high rigidity. The hub flange has also grown significantly in diameter. This means that shorter spokes can be used, which reduces torsion in the entire wheel to a minimum. The holes are also designed for 2.34 mm thick spokes.
Propulsion is provided by the Ratchet OS toothed disk freewheel. Its dimensions have also been adapted to the increased loads. With its 30 ratchet points, the freewheel travel is reduced, but there is also enough surface area for power transmission. In addition, the freehub body is made of steel to prevent premature wear.
Despite these numerous features, the weight remains within a pleasing range, so that it could also be a shortlist choice for non-E-bikers. Typical for DT Swiss is the high-quality workmanship, which guarantees you a long service life and low maintenance.
