DT Swiss EXC 1501 SPLINE ONE Rear Wheel

This wheel is designed for modern enduro bikes with a 12x148mm Boost axle spacing and uses a 6-bolt disc brake mount. Please ensure your frame supports 29-inch wheels and that you are using a SRAM XD cassette, as it is not compatible with Shimano HG or Micro Spline drivers.

The Ratchet EXP system uses two spring-loaded ratchets that engage simultaneously across their entire surface area, rather than individual pawls. This design reduces drag and weight while increasing durability and engagement speed, resulting in more efficient power transfer when you pedal.

A 30mm internal width provides a wider, more stable platform for modern enduro tires, typically ranging from 2.3 to 2.6 inches. This extra width helps prevent tire squirm during hard cornering and allows you to run slightly lower pressures for better traction without sacrificing sidewall support.

Yes, the EXC 1501 is specifically engineered for the rigors of enduro. The combination of a high-modulus carbon rim and straightpull spokes creates a very stiff, responsive wheelset that tracks precisely through technical rock gardens and high-speed sections.

Yes, the DT Swiss 240 hub with Ratchet EXP is designed for tool-free maintenance. You can easily remove the end caps and freehub body by hand to clean and grease the ratchets, making it one of the most user-friendly hubs on the market.
