DT Swiss CRC 1400 Spline Front Wheel

Yes, the CRC 1400 Spline is specifically engineered for both disciplines. Its carbon rim profile is designed to handle the varied, unpredictable terrain found in cyclocross courses and gravel races alike.

The wheel features a tubeless-ready profile, meaning it is designed to be run tubeless for better traction and puncture resistance. You will need to install tubeless tape, valves, and sealant to complete the setup.

This wheel is compatible exclusively with Center-Lock disc brake systems. It will not work with rim brakes.

This wheel is built with a 12mm thru-axle by 100mm spacing, which is the current industry standard for most modern gravel and cyclocross disc-brake bikes. Please verify your fork specifications before purchasing.

The 45mm rim depth strikes a balance between aerodynamic efficiency and stability. It provides a noticeable speed advantage on flat, fast sections while remaining manageable in crosswinds compared to deeper-section wheels.

The Ratchet EXP system is known for its reliability and efficient power transfer. It uses fewer parts than traditional pawl systems, which reduces weight and increases stiffness, ensuring your pedaling input is translated directly into forward motion.
