Wheelset 29" XC | DT Swiss 350 MTB Straightpull 6-hole hubs | Newmen aluminum rims
Range of use: Cross Country XC to Trail TR
Stable, functional and affordable - that's the best way to characterize this wheelset. The combination of Newmen aluminum rims and the proven DT-Swiss 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. 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.
Rims
The aluminum rims from the Allgäu impress with their low weight and yet high rigidity. They are the perfect basis for high-quality wheelsets. The X.A.25 version uses the tried and tested 6061 aluminum, while the SL version saves a few additional grams thanks to the 6069 alloy. The flared rim flanks make these rims more resistant to dents and external forces and give the tire a rounder shape and therefore more cornering grip. The rim profile with the straight nipple contact surface is specially designed for the use of specially developed washers (MG washers) and ensures very high "Spoke Pull Out" values in this area. In addition, the rim flanges are much more solid and therefore more robust compared to rims in the same weight class.
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 offer a lifetime guarantee against spoke breakage as long as it is not caused by force.
The following services are also included:
You will receive a universal wheel bag for all common sizes.
You will receive a replacement spoke with nipple in all required spoke lengths so that you can repair the wheel quickly after an accident.
You will receive a free initial inspection of the wheel, where 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, we will rebuild it once. We grant a 100% discount on all labor costs and only charge for the material.
