Description

The DT SWISS FR 1500 CLASSIC rear wheel has been developed to withstand the most demanding stresses encountered in downhill and freeride riding. Its architecture prioritises strength and durability to absorb repeated impacts, heavy compressions and committed landings. Thanks to its new rim profile, it combines robustness with weight reduction for a more dynamic behaviour on the trail.

Made from aluminium, the rim incorporates localised reinforcements that increase its resistance to impacts. The redesigned sidewalls also improve protection against pinch flats, a key consideration for riders tackling rough terrain. This design maintains excellent stability while minimising downtime caused by mechanical incidents.

The wheel is equipped with the DT Swiss 240 hub paired with Ratchet EXP 36 technology. This combination ensures reliable and durable power transfer, even in the most demanding conditions. The DT Competition® spoke lacing with DT ProLock nipples helps maintain spoke tension over time and preserve the overall stiffness of the wheel.

With an internal width of 30 mm, Tubeless Ready compatibility and certification suited to intensive use of the ASTM 5 type, the FR 1500 CLASSIC rear wheel is aimed at riders seeking a high-performance wheel capable of handling the demands of modern riding whilst maintaining precision and reliability ride after ride.
