A reliable wheel for any situation: the FR 1950 CLASSIC 30 wheelset from DT Swiss

The 30 mm rim width of the FR 1950 CLASSIC 30 gives your downhill tyres very good lateral support for even higher cornering speeds. The increased air volume allows you to lower tyre pressure and find traction where there was none before. The rim design, light 240s hubs and DT Competition spokes have proved their mettle on the bikes of Danny Hart and Loic Bruni, riding the toughest downhill tracks in the world. Whether you're going against the clock or just having fun - the FR 1950 is for all bikers who enjoy letting go.

Technology:

DT ProLock Squorx Pro Head®
The DT Squorx Pro Head nipple combines ease of assembly and lightweight. With an additional Torx and square drive. The Torx drive provides more contact surface when building wheels, which means that the torque transmitted from the tool to the nipple is better distributed. The spherical contact area in the rim guarantees perfect alignment with the spoke.

Ratchet System®
The patented freehub system with high-precision star ratchets guarantees maximum load capacity and reliability. Thanks to the no-tool concept, the system is very easy and quick to maintain.

Straight Pull
In order to achieve an ideal ratio of weight and stability, many DT Swiss wheels use different forms of straight pull spokes. Straight pull spokes do not need a spoke bend and thus eliminate a weak point. Nevertheless, they can be trued and replaced with standard tools.

Tubeless Ready
Tubeless Ready rims are designed for use with tubeless kits and tyres. They allow a correct fit of the tubeless rim tape (use the appropriate model!) and the tubeless tyre.

Double Butted
These spokes have two different diameters. The spoke is partially butted by cold forging. As a result, the diameter is smaller and thus enables a reduction in weight while at the same time improving the strain values.
