DT Swiss GR 1600 Spline Clincher Disc Brake Rear Wheel A perfect addition to any gravel bike, the DT Swiss GR 1600 Spline Clincher Disc Brake Rear Wheel is a strong and dependable performer on the longest and roughest adventures. The aluminium rim is light and laterally stiff to give a positive and urgent sensation under power and is robust enough to handle the most irregular and demanding riding surfaces. Composed in crosswinds thanks to its shallow, 25mm rim depth this rim also reduces the rolling resistance and improves the comfort of tubeless-ready or standard clincher tyres thanks to its broad, 24mm internal width. The DT Swiss 350 hub uses a SPLINE shell that has a sophisticated flange shape to help even out spoke tensions for increased durability and lateral stiffness. This hub shell encases high-quality bearings that reduce rotational friction markedly. 24 DT Swiss Aero Comp spokes link the build together in a reliable two-cross lacing pattern.
