DT Swiss 240 EXP Straightpull wheelset with e*thirteen TRS TR Race carbon rims

The high-end trail and all-mountain wheelset featuring the new DT Swiss 240 EXP Spline hubs and the 445-gram e*thirteen TRS TR Race carbon rims with a 27 mm rim width. We offer this wheelset with CentreLock or Disc 6-hole brake disc mounts. The 240 EXP hubs are available in quick-release, thru-axle or Boost thru-axle versions.

Wheel building at TNC-Hamburg:

Hand-built in our specialist workshop. We manufacture these wheels entirely by hand for you, which is why we cannot offer a right of return for them. Thanks to over 30 years’ experience in wheel building, we extract the optimum in concentricity, durability and stiffness from the materials. These wheels are, of course, tested multiple times; we also pre-load the spokes in both the radial and tangential directions. This eliminates the need for re-truing over a long period of time. We use DT Swiss spokes exclusively. These ensure outstanding durability of the wheelsets. For DH and Enduro use, we recommend brass nipples.

Please feel free to enquire about other wheel configurations. We will then send you a quote.

Included in delivery:

Front and rear wheels, fully laced and hand-trued in our workshop, with DT 240 EXP hubs, DT spokes, DT nipples as selected, and e*thirteen TRS Trail Race carbon rims. Excludes rim tape and valve

DT Swiss 240 EXP hubs:

The DT Swiss 240 EXP straight-pull hubs offer minimal weight combined with exceptional durability – a rarity in hub construction. The DT Swiss 240 EXP hubs feature low-maintenance stainless steel ball bearings. The patented freehub body utilises interlocking toothed discs, ensuring loss-free power transmission. Straightpull refers to straight, non-offset spokes. Thanks to this technology, it is possible to achieve an ideal balance between weight and stability. The straightpull spokes allow for very precise alignment and optimised positioning within the wheel, resulting in a stiffer and more responsive wheel.

Rims: e*thirteen TRS TR Race Carbon:

The e*thirteen TRS Trail Race Carbon rims with a hookless profile are ultra-strong, ultra-light and ultra-stable.

The durable and lightweight full-carbon rim, weighing just 445 grams, is designed for all-mountain, trail and cross-country use. The TRS TR Race Carbon rims with a hookless profile are extremely strong and can, of course, also be ridden with an inner tube. The 27 mm rim width of the carbon rim is ideal for most trail and all-mountain tyre widths. This ensures optimal support for wide tyres. Recommended for tyre widths from 2.1 to 2.5.

DT Competition spokes:

The double cold-forged spoke made from rust-resistant 18/10 chrome-nickel steel with a tapered middle section for robust, lightweight wheelsets. We recommend these spokes for virtually all wheelsets. Extremely durable and sufficiently lightweight, the DT Competition spokes enable wheel building of the highest standard. Thanks to the tapered middle section, the spokes absorb movements in the wheel exceptionally well, without compromising on lateral stiffness and durability. Weight with nipple approx. 7 grams.

DT Competition Race spokes:

Just as versatile as the bent version of the DT Competition spoke, but as a straight spoke. They are optimally matched to the new straight-pull hubs and offer even greater durability compared to the conventional DT Competition spoke. Thanks to the extra-thin middle section, they save a further 35 g per wheel compared to the already lightweight DT Competition, whilst offering almost the same stiffness and durability.

DT Swiss Aero Comp spokes:

Designed for stable, laterally stiff yet aerodynamic wheelsets, the DT Swiss Aero Comp spoke is cold-forged in the middle section, making it lighter and stronger. In a further complex process, it is flat-forged to optimise aerodynamic properties whilst simultaneously increasing material strength. The DT Aero Comp guarantees a balanced ratio of stiffness, aerodynamics and durability.

DT Competition Race spokes:

Just as versatile as the bent version of the DT Competition spoke, but in a straight design. They are perfectly matched to the new straight-pull hubs and offer even greater durability compared to the conventional DT Competition spoke. Thanks to the extra-thin centre section, they save a further 35 g per wheel compared to the already lightweight DT Competition, whilst offering almost the same stiffness and durability.

DT Swiss Aero Lite spokes:

The DT Swiss Aerolite spokes are flatter and lighter than any others; the DT Swiss Aerolite spokes feature an aerodynamic flat profile and are extremely lightweight. Thanks to the 0.9 x 2.3 mm aerodynamic centre section, this spoke can be fitted to all standard hubs. The Cold Forging Technology (CFT) developed by DT Swiss makes the reduced and forged DT Aerolite the lightest stainless steel spoke and gives it excellent mechanical properties. Particularly suitable for super-light and fast road or cross-country wheelsets. 64 DT Aerolite spokes weigh just an incredible 278 g at a length of 264 mm. Weight per spoke at a length of 264 mm: 4.31 grams

DT Squorx spoke nipples:

The DT Swiss Squorx Pro Head nipple combines ease of installation with light weight thanks to the DT Pro Head shape, combined with an additional Torx and square tool socket. The Torx socket provides a larger contact area during wheel building, ensuring that the force from the tool is better distributed across the nipple. The spherical contact area within the rim guarantees perfect alignment with the spoke.
