DT Swiss EX 1700 Spline Front Wheel 27.5" Disc 6-Bolt 15x110mm TA 21mm

In the EX 1700 wheels is the entire know-how from the aluminum wheel construction. As a basis serve the well-known 36t RATCHET hubs combined with welded and super stable 30 mm aluminum rims. The profile of the rims is designed to be strong enough to satisfy the best enduro riders, but still remain light enough for you to effortlessly get up to your favorite trail. Spoked with Competition straightpull spokes, the EX 1700 SPLINE wheels easily withstand even the toughest enduro use.

TUBELESS TECHNOLOGY
Tubeless tyres offer some key advantages over the conventional combination of tyre and inner tube. The tire can be driven with less pressure without risking "snakebites" and thus offers more grip. The lower pressure also ensures greater driving comfort. Dispensing with the inner tube means that there is no friction between the inner tube and the tyre and that therefore the rolling resistance is lower when driving off-road and over obstacles. If tubeless milk is also used, the tyre is also immune to punctures and small cuts. This is a great advantage for all those who like to be on the road for a long time and away from the nearest bike shop.

The advantages
Tubeless Ready rims from DT Swiss have further advantages over conventional rims. Thanks to the design of its cross-section, the tyre pops into place easily when inflated, so in most cases only a normal stand pump is needed. The sophisticated tread pattern of DT Swiss rims also ensures precise and secure fit of the tyre, even under tough driving conditions.

The perfect fit
The profiles of DT Swiss rims are designed specifically for tubeless use. They guarantee a perfect fit and make the installation of the tire as easy as possible. Nevertheless, it's always possible to use a conventional combination of tire and tube.

DT Swiss valve
The use of aluminum saves 40% weight compared to conventional brass valves. The integrated valve tool in the valve cap saves time and effort in finding the right tool for removing the valve core. The conical valve base ensures a tight fit. The DT Swiss Tubeless valve fits perfectly with the DT Swiss rims and ensures a perfect seal for long trouble-free rides.

DT Swiss Tubeless Band
The DT Swiss Tubeless Ready Tape seals the rim and also functions as a rim tape. it's available in different sizes to perfectly fit the different internal widths of the rims.

The DT Swiss Tubeless Ready Kit
The DT Swiss Tubeless Ready Kit's used to seal the Tubeless Ready rim and thus allows tubeless driving. DT Swiss also strongly recommends the use of a high-performance tire sealant when using tubeless-specific tyres. When using Tubeless Ready tyres, the use of the sealant is mandatory (the sealant seals the tire, which is primarily not airtight). A tubeless setup reaches its full potential only with a sealant! When choosing a sealant, make sure that it's compatible with the rim, rim tape and tire. It must not be corrosive or aggressive in any way. In case of doubt, contact the manufacturer of the sealant so that you do not lose your DT Swiss warranty.

PRO LOCK TECHNOLOGY
In the Pro Lock process, a patented two-component adhesive is injected into the nipple thread, which enables the construction of extremely durable impellers. As soon as the nipples are screwed in, the adhesive is activated. At room temperature, it takes approx. 6-7 hours to cure completely. Repeated re-centering is possible without any problems, whereby the adhesive strength decreases slightly with each re-centering.

PRO LOCK - FACTS
DT Pro Lock prevents the independent loosening of the spoke-nipple connection.
Internal tests show that wheels built with DT Pro Lock have times the life of wheels with conventional nipples.
Suitable for manual and machine lacing. The use of lubricant or oil is not recommended.
All DT Swiss nipples are available with and without DT Pro Lock.

PHR - PRO HEAD REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY
The PHR system increases the load-bearing area of the nipples on the rim and reduces local loads. Peak loads are reduced, so DT was able to build the rim even lighter. The shape of the disc also acts as a ball joint and automatically aligns the specific DT Squorx Pro Head ball head nipples with the spoke, reducing the risk of spoke breakage or rim cracking.
