DT Swiss GRC 1400 Spline 42 Carbon Gravel Wheelset – 700c

The most technically sophisticated competitive Gravel wheels out there; the GRC 1400’s set new benchmarks in what you can expect from an all surfaces racing wheelset. Working with the aerodynamics experts at Swissside, DT developed entirely new testing equipment and procedures for measuring drag and rolling resistance in order the develop the GRC’s unique rim profile.

Freed from the constraints of UCI certification, the result is a blisteringly fast, 24 mm wide (internal) aerodynamic wheel and that has been designed from the ground up for 35c and bigger rubber.The rims are manufactured using a method developed by DT to ensure continuous carbon fibres are aligned with the forces passing through the wheel, increasing strength and stiffness in use without adding weight.

DT’s SPLINE series 240 ratchet hubs have long been a byword for reliability and low weight, with optimum spoke placement to allow improved bracing angles, improving lateral stiffness for no additional weight, a fast-engaging 36-tooth ratchet completes a premium package. DT’s straight-pull Aerolite and Aerocomp spokes offer a highly optimised mix of low weight, stiffness and aerodynamic performance with DT’s renowned reliability
