Technologies
Bushings and bearings
Most hubs are equipped with radial bearings, which are sensitive to lateral forces. Hubs equipped with clearance adjustment systems are often finely threaded and allow for precise clearance adjustment, but can also generate high axial forces. In this case, the bearings are preloaded too quickly, which leads to damage. Thanks to many years of experience with optimal bearing preload and knowledge of manufacturing tolerances, DT Swiss is able to design durable, play-free hubs without the need to adjust bearing clearance. This hub design also allows for an advantage in terms of light weight as no threading is required and the wall thickness can be reduced. Another benefit is the ease of maintenance and quick conversion to the various freewheel and axle systems. Bearing technology is present in all DT Swiss hubs, both front and rear.
AERO+
The perfect symbiosis between resistance, handling and efficiency. AERO+ technology improves translational resistance, rotational resistance, steering torque and rolling resistance. When perfecting a wheel according to the AERO+ concept, the optimization of the various parameters has only one objective: to increase speed!
spokes
The production of high-quality radios was a hallmark of the company in its early days. DT was synonymous with superior quality Swiss spokes even before the birth of today's DT Swiss AG. To this day, DT Swiss spokes stand for durability and precision and are unbeatable thanks to their unique production process. They combine lightness and stability. DT Swiss product development focuses on new trends, technical innovation and very high quality standards. The range of spokes is perfected meeting the different requirements of the various cycling disciplines.
