Recommended for a combined rider and bike weight of up to 120 kg.

DT Swiss Squorx Pro Head spoke nipples:

The DT Squorx Pro Head nipple combines ease of installation, light weight and optimal performance in a single product. The Torx head makes lacing flat spokes a breeze. The spherical contact surface ensures perfect alignment with the spoke, whilst the square section allows for easy re-centring using standard tools with the tyre fitted. With the XM 551 rims, these nipples are included in the scope of delivery, along with a washer that is fitted between the nipple and the rim bed. This ensures even pressure distribution and long-lasting durability

DT Swiss Tubeless Ready:

The DT Swiss XM 551 rims are equipped with rim beads adapted for tubeless rim tape and can be easily upgraded to tubeless rims using DT Swiss tubeless rim tape
