Dt Swiss xmc 1200 Spline 29" Boost wheelset

Versatile on all terrain

When it comes to all-mountain riding, versatility is key. That's what sets the XMC 1200 SPLINE apart. Our new carbon compression process creates strong, lightweight rims, while our patent-pending layer-by-layer quality control minimises imperfections to maximise your confidence, allowing you to break the mould. An agile, lightweight rim at the front and a stronger rim at the rear make these wheels efficient and reliable, for planned activities and the unexpected. You can choose between the robust and fast Ratchet DEG freewheel system or the lightweight Ratchet EXP. Break free from the limitations of the latest configuration and embrace your next adventure

Features

Rim structure
Maximum layer compression thanks to state-of-the-art carbon construction technique for the most versatile MTB rims ever.

Quality control
A rim that is 100% road-ready, thanks to the quality control technique that scans every detail down to the smallest layer.

Rims
The rims are asymmetrical and differentiated, for strength at the rear and lightness at the front.

Hub
With the XMC 1200 SPLINE, the choice is yours: the 180 hub can be equipped with the lightweight Ratchet EXP system or with the quick-release Ratchet DEG system (not interchangeable after purchase).

Spokes
28 DT revolite spokes, our lightest and strongest MTB spokes in their weight class.

Technologies

New moulding technology for carbon rims
An innovative rim manufacturing process, unique in the industry, and non-destructive inspection of each product, layer by layer, result in lightweight yet strong rims for a long-lasting riding experience.

Ratchet technologies
Each Ratchet system is designed for a specific purpose. Learn more about the different freewheel systems from DT Swiss.

Tubeless Technology
All DT Swiss wheels are compatible with tubeless technology and the ASM versions are tubeless-ready, equipped with tubeless tape and valves.

Fit angle
One of the hot topics in the industry is the engagement angle! Here we explain exactly what it is, how it affects pedalling efficiency and reflect on the truthfulness or otherwise of the widely held view that ‘the wider the better’.

Dt pro lock®
In the DT Pro Lock process, a two-component adhesive liquid is injected into the thread of the nipple, enabling extremely reliable wheel mounting. By tightening the nipple on the spoke, the two-component adhesive starts to act and harden. Once fully hardened, it is still possible to centre the wheel several times, with only a slight decrease in the threadlocking effect.

Bearing technology
DT Swiss hubs are designed to function optimally once mounted on the bike. To this end, the tightening torque generated by the wheel mounting system must be taken into account when designing the hubs. Find out how to ensure the optimal rotational capacity of ball bearings and why DT Swiss does not produce hubs with adjustable bearing clearance.
