DT Swiss G 1800 SPLINE® 25 db Gravel Rear Wheel 28"/700C (12x142 mm) SHIMANO HG

Be ready for UNPAVED ADVENTURES!
With the launch of their gravel-dedicated system wheels, the wheel specialists of the traditional manufacturer DT Swiss discover a new territory that used to be reserved for mountain bikers in the past but today fascinates adventurous road cyclists.

The G 1800 SPLINE® 25 rear wheel represents the entry into DT Swiss’ special wheel family and opens the door to a completely new world away from tarmac and paved roads.
The robust alloy rim is lightweight, stiff and impresses with outstanding durability for your first adventures on the gravel roads of the world. In this way, it perfectly combines riding dynamics with fun without burdening your budget. An inner rim width of 24mm additionally provides a large tyre volume, which takes the comfort on demanding gravel roads to a new level.

Optimised for use with powerful disc brakes, the rim rotates around the proven DT 370 rear hub that provides reliable propulsion and good power transfer thanks to solid bearings and the proven Ratchet LN freehub ratchet system. Aerodynamic DT Swiss aero comp® straight pull and DT Swiss new aero® straight pull bladed spokes give the entire wheel system a perfect balance of comfort and stiffness. Every DT Swiss wheel is handmade. The concept of manual production is not only a guarantee for a stable and durable wheel. Know-how and, above all, experience are required to produce a high-quality wheelset.

For maximum off-road performance, the DT Swiss G 1800 SPLINE® 25 wheel also offers excellent tubeless compatibility. When used without tubes, you’ll benefit from less weight, improved puncture resistance, reduced rolling resistance and increased comfort, since you can ride with lower air pressure on unpaved roads.
So leave the paved roads behind and discover unknown territory. The G 1800 SPLINE® 25 rear wheel from DT Swiss will be your reliable companion!

Technologies:

• RATCHET LN:
The Ratchet LN freehub system is the entry into the world of high-quality ratchet systems from DT Swiss and raises the items from the lower price segment to a new level. In the reliable 370 hub, the Ratchet LN freehub replaces the classic 3-pawl freehub system. It uses the same internal parts as the ratchet system. The difference between the two systems is that the freehub system is sealed via a sealing ring on the freehub body. This means that older ratchet systems with Ratchet LN can also be converted to a DT Swiss Ratchet system.

• TUBELESS:
All DT Swiss wheels are tubeless ready. The profiles of the DT Swiss rims are specially designed for tubeless use. The rim profile makes it easier to fit the right tyre and ensures a perfect fit. The tubeless system of the rim consists of DT Swiss tubeless ready tape for sealing and a DT Swiss tubeless valve in a length that complies with the rim. When using tubeless ready tyres, a compatible sealant must be used. However, it is also possible to use a conventional combination of tyre and inner tube.

• BEARINGS:
Having learned from years of experience, DT Swiss only uses durable cartridge bearings without bearing play adjustment. DT Swiss hubs are designed to have the optimum axial and radial bearing play when they are properly installed. The correct preload of the bearings to compensate for the clamping force of the wheel mounting system is the basis for a play-free hub with minimum friction.

• PRO LOCK®:
DT Pro Lock® prevents the spoke-nipple connection from loosening. In the Pro Lock® process, a special dual component adhesive is injected into the nipple thread, allowing for extremely durable wheel builds. By threading the nipple onto the spoke the adhesive is activated and then hardens completely within a few hours. Re-truing the wheel is possible, yet it will cause a slight decrease in the adhesive power each time.
