DT EXC 1200 Classic:

Imagine being able to tackle the fastest sections, a rocky ridge or a treacherous network of roots without fear. The EXC 1200 CLASSIC supports you on the most daring routes and still has plenty in reserve should things not go to plan. Our unique process ensures maximum compaction of the carbon fibres, resulting in greater durability than ever before. A patent-pending technique for layer-by-layer quality control ensures that irregularities are minimised. Straight from the mould, ready for action on your MTB. The lighter front rim is fitted with 28 DT Revolite spokes, whilst the more robust rear rim features 32 spokes. The responsive Ratchet DEG system ensures a lower engagement angle, which is crucial for accelerating out of corners. Master the stages and push your limits.

DT Swiss EXC 1200 rims:

A revolutionary rim manufacturing process and non-destructive layer-by-layer testing of every product ensure rims that are both lightweight and robust for long-lasting riding pleasure. In conventional manufacturing processes, the various individual components of a carbon rim are produced separately, which can lead to irregularities when they are assembled. Thanks to the new method, DT Swiss is able to produce a particularly durable rim in which the fibres of the outer layers are not cut, ensuring continuous fibres in the areas subject to the greatest stress. This results in a more consistent structure with fewer irregularities.

The patent-pending outer carbon layer ensures an unrivalled high-quality finish to the rim surface, meaning the rim is ready for use immediately upon removal from the mould. The result is a structurally optimised composition free from air pockets and resin build-up, which not only improves the rim’s reliability but also ensures an elegant design.

Thanks to a patented process, a unique surface is achieved, eliminating the need for final coatings and resulting in weight savings.

Wheels subjected to particularly high loads are protected by carbon layers surrounding the entire rim; this reinforces the rim flange in particular with long, uninterrupted fibre strands.

The resulting protection against impacts and higher stresses prevents structural weakening between the carbon layers, ensuring carefree riding pleasure even on challenging routes. The number of carbon layers added increases in line with the expected load in the various applications.

To ensure that our rims are 100% ready for immediate use, each rim is tested through all layers using a technology for which a patent has been applied. Thanks to this completely new method, all rims that are not 100% flawless are rejected, and only rims without any material defects are approved.

DT Swiss Carbon Shield Technology

Wheels exposed to particularly high loads are protected by carbon layers surrounding the entire rim; this reinforces the rim flange in particular with long, uninterrupted fibre strands.The resulting protection against impacts and higher stresses prevents structural weakening between the carbon layers, ensuring carefree riding pleasure even on challenging routes. The number of added carbon layers increases in line with the expected load in the various areas of use.

DT Swiss 180 Classic DEG Hub:

The patent-pending Ratchet DEG system is based on a different approach to conventional freewheel systems. It operates with a smaller engagement angle, thereby offering the greatest possible reliability. The innovative design of the Ratchet DEG hub allows the bearing to be replaced without special tools. The threaded ring does not need to be removed. The steel DEG pawls are larger than on all previous DT Swiss models. They are designed to make it easier even for the strongest riders to transfer power over the long term and across a large contact area. The simultaneous engagement of the sprockets results in a larger contact area than with ratchet hubs – and thus a more even distribution of the load. The two enlarged sprockets have 90 teeth. With just 4, they therefore offer the smallest engagement angle of any hub in the DT Swiss range. On the trail, this leads to reduced backlash. The Ratchet DEG freehub body has a larger diameter at the ratchet interface. This means it fits perfectly with the size-optimised DEG ring. Furthermore, it is therefore only compatible with hubs equipped with the Ratchet DEG system. The seal is located on the freehub.

DT Swiss Revolite spokes:

To achieve an ideal balance between weight and stability, only the highest-quality DT Swiss Aerolite and DT Swiss Aero Comp straight-pull spokes are used in Spline Carbon wheelsets. They are stiffer than conventional spokes yet can still be trued and replaced using standard tools. The straight-pull lacing allows for precise placement and alignment of the spokes. This optimises wheel stiffness and eliminates any unwanted stress peaks.

DT Swiss Aluminium Tubeless Valve:

The 1200 Spline wheelset series is supplied with new aluminium tubeless valves. These offer a 40 per cent weight saving compared to brass valves, whilst an integrated valve tool in the cap and a tapered valve base ensure a perfect fit.
