Spokes

<<< Back home

We trust DT Swiss spokes for our custom high performance wheelbuilds. We chose the Aerolite and the Competition for their qualities,
their compatibility and theyr modularity.

DT Aerolite

So far the most advanced spoke. It is very light, aerodynamic and made out of the best stainless steel.
Cold forged, the spoke is originally a stainless steel wire manufactured exclusively for DTSwiss. The forged shape of the spokes improve the mechanical properties and increase significantly
the endurance. The bladed/round junction is smooth and does not create extra drag.
This spoke fulfill the requirements of the german standard DIN-79 100.

– 278g (64pcs/264mm)
– Aerodynamic: 2,3/0,9mm
– Very high mechanical properties
– CFT cold forging technology
– 100% swiss made
– Black or silver
3 € per spoke

The Aerolite spokes might be replaced by Sapim Cx-ray spokes in case of unavailability or special requirements such as straight pull heads spokes.

DT Competition 2.0/1.8

Contrary to the Aerolite, this spoke is more traditionnal. Double butted, this spoke is made out from the same high quality stainless steel wire and receive a double cold forging. The
thinner wire in the middle section provides the mechanical properties for very endurant and extreme conditions wheels. DT Swiss has developed its own technology for reducing the diameter of
the spoke: CFT cold forging technology! The spoke wire is forged and not drawn.
This spoke will increase the stiffness of the wheels at the expense of the weigth and the aerodynamic.
This spoke fulfill the requirements of the german standard DIN-79 100.
