R2BIKE wheelset 28" Disc RR | DT Swiss 350 Road Straightpull Center Lock hubs | DT Swiss aluminum rims
Application: Road bike RR
Stable, functional and inexpensive - that's the best way to characterize this wheelset. The combination of DT Swiss aluminum rims and their indestructible hubs should therefore always be on your shortlist. The well-balanced selection of components guarantees you high reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
Switzerland is known for good chocolate, first-class cheese and marvels of precision engineering. The dedication to detail that goes into these products is also reflected in the DT Swiss 350 hubs. Above all, the love of mechanics is easy to see. The tried and tested toothed pulley freewheel with 18 notches is extremely reliable and hardly needs to shy away from comparison with Swiss clockwork. The bearing technology with 2 bearings each for the freewheel and hub body is adapted to the loads that occur. The labyrinth sealing system with the sliding sealing discs and the steel bearing rings ensures a long service life. Should a service be necessary after tens of thousands of kilometers, the hubs can be dismantled and serviced within a few minutes without special tools thanks to the DT Swiss plug-in system.
Rims
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.
Thanks to their simple but well thought-out design, the current 350 hubs have become significantly lighter compared to the previous versions. The proven ratchet freehub system of the DT-Swiss 240 hubs makes the hubs an extremely reliable companion. Compared to pawl systems, the ratchet freehub offers a more even power transmission, which significantly reduces wear. With 36 teeth, the hub reacts very directly to acceleration. The new shape of the end caps makes disassembly even easier, making it even easier to convert to other axle standards.
Wheel construction at R2-Bike
Our wheels are assembled entirely by hand by our wheel builders. During the entire assembly process, great importance is attached to ensuring that not only the concentricity is correct, but also that the spoke tension is as even as possible. This special care allows us to give the first owner a lifetime guarantee against spoke breakage, as long as it was not caused by force.
The following services are also included for first-time buyers:
You will receive a universal wheel bag for all common sizes.
You will receive a spare spoke with nipple in all required spoke lengths so that you can repair the wheel quickly after an accident.
Within 2 years of purchase you will receive a free initial inspection of the wheel, where the resulting work is completely free of charge. Only shipping costs apply.
You get a crash replacement promise: If your wheel is damaged due to force majeure within 2 years of purchase, we will rebuild it once. We grant a 100% discount on all labor costs and only charge for the material.
