DT Swiss HX 1501 Spline 30 Boost Rear Wheel - 27.5" - 30mm Rim

Designed for riders who are looking for the ultimate performance. Thanks to the aluminium rim, the DT Swiss HX 1501 Spline 30 Boost Wheelset is the top hybrid wheel in the DT Swiss range. The rim is combined with a hub shell that offers better resistance to drive and braking torques that are common on modern eMTBs. This resistance is made possible by reinforced spokes, so that even greater accelerations can be generated than with the previous DT Swiss hybrid product range. Each component has been carefully designed, produced and tested to ensure a stress-free ride as well as maximum fun, regardless of the rider's level. Suitable for both mountain bikes and electronic mountain bikes (E-MTBs), this is a perfect choice for tackling the demands of modern mountain riding.

Aluminium MTB Wheelset with Tubeless Ready Technology: Tubeless tyres offer several distinct advantages over the traditional tyre and tube combination. The tyre can be run at lower pressures without risking "snakebites", thus providing more grip. The lower pressure also provides a more comfortable ride. The absence of the tube means that there is no friction between the tube and the tyre, and therefore less rolling resistance when riding off-road and over obstacles. This model is tubeless ready, so you can enjoy tubeless advantages such as the ability to run lower tyre pressures for increased stability, comfort and fewer chances of flats or punctures.

DT Swiss Pro Lock Technology: DT Pro Lock spoke nipples prevent the spoke-nipple connection from loosening on its own. A patented two-component adhesive is injected into the nipple thread, which allows the construction of extremely durable wheels. As soon as the nipples are screwed in, the adhesive is activated and then hardens completely. Repeated re-centring is easily possible, although the adhesive strength decreases slightly with each re-centring.

Ratchet EXP OS: The use of a single cylindrical spring results in less system wear while allowing faster full interlocking. With a full mesh of 30 teeth, the power generated by the engine and rider is transmitted evenly over a wide contact area, resulting in superior reliability. A larger double thread distributes loads over a wider area, reducing peak loads. This increases the service life of the system and even enables the transmission of greater torque. The axle was tested in FEM analyses to determine the bending load when riding an E-MTB and to optimise the axle resistance.
