R2BIKE wheelset 28" RR | DT Swiss 180 Road Straightpull hubs | DT Swiss aluminum rims
Application: Road bike RR
We also have wheels in our range for traditionalists with tried and tested rim brakes. The combination of DT Swiss aluminium rims and their indestructible hubs should always be on your shortlist. The balanced selection of components guarantees you a high level of reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
Lighter, stiffer, more precise and easier to maintain - these are the strengths of the DT Swiss 180 hubs. The smooth-running SINC Ceramic ball bearings offer you a further decisive advantage; they ensure minimal rolling resistance. The stiffness of 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 RATCHET EXP toothed disc freewheel has also been further developed. This highly reliable system ensures direct power transmission without losses.
The main advantages of Straightpull hubs, apart from the modern design, are contactless spokes that do not cause any unpleasant noises and spoke heads that cannot work their way into the spoke flange. However, if desired, the straightpull hubs can also be cross-spoked.
Rims
DT Swiss has stood for innovative products of the highest quality for years. Starting out as a manufacturer of high-quality spokes, the company has continuously expanded its product range. Since 2004, the Swiss company has also included rims in its range, which it is constantly improving based on feedback from professional cyclists and taking into account new developments in materials and manufacturing. Today, DT Swiss rims are among the most popular on the market.
From the melting of the alloy to the secret surface treatment, these Swiss get the best out of the aluminum. The result is rims that are very light, very robust and very functional. The brake track has been specially machined and offers you the best performance without rubbing.
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 get a universal wheel bag for all common sizes included.
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, during which the resulting work is completely free of charge. Only shipping costs are incurred.
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.
