Carbon wheels 50mm

DT Swiss ARC 1400 Dicut Carbon 50 Disc CL wheelset

The DT Swiss ARC 1400 50mm DICUT wheels are the latest in the 1400 series, resulting from the partnership between DT Swiss and SWISS SIDE, an expert in aerodynamics. Available as a disc brake version in four heights (80mm, 62mm, 50mm and 38mm), the AERO+ rim profiles set a new standard in aerodynamic performance and feature minimal drag at any angle. incidence of side wind. In moderate winds, the sail effect ensures efficient propulsion. The reduced sensitivity to wind allows you to maintain a stable aerodynamic position and, therefore, perfect control of the bike. Equipped with high-quality DT Swiss Aero spokes, these wheels are equipped with the ultra-light 240 DICUT hub and its Ratchet EXP system for direct and reliable engagement.

ARC 1400 DICUT 80: the ideal Aero wheel for rolling harder on the flat than ever before. #flatoutfast
ARC 1400 DICUT 62: the Aero wheel the best compromise between pure performance on the flat and versatility.
ARC 1400 DICUT 50: the versatile Aero wheel that offers the perfect balance between stability and low drag for pressing the pedals on varied terrain.
ARC 1400 DICUT 38: the low profile Aero wheel to give all the power during demanding and fast races that require excellent handling.

DT Swiss Technologies

Aero+

The perfect symbiosis between drag, handling and efficiency. To achieve this, the Swiss Side engineering team focused on four aerodynamic improvements: form drag, rotational drag, steering torque and rolling resistance.

Tubeless Ready

Tubeless Ready simply allows you to benefit from exceptional performance similar to tubulars with the addition of preventative to avoid punctures. The choice is yours to mount your new DT Swiss wheels with or without a tube.

Backlash-free bearing technology

The art of designing a durable hub with minimal clearance lies in properly preloading the bearings. Most bicycle hubs are equipped with radial bearings, which are sensitive to lateral forces. Hubs with a clearance adjustment system generally have a fine thread. They allow precise clearance adjustment, but can also generate high axial forces. Quickly subjected to excessive preload, the bearings are then damaged.
Drawing on its many years of experience in optimal bearing preloading and its knowledge of manufacturing tolerances, DT Swiss is able to design durable, backlash-free hubs without adjustment of bearing clearance. This hub design also makes it lighter thanks to the absence of threads, which results in a thinner wall. Last but not least: ease of maintenance and quick adaptation to different freewheel bodies and axle systems.
This bearing technology appears in all DT Swiss hubs, front and rear.

Ratchet System EXP

DT Swiss has not only improved reliability but also weight on the Ratchet EXP. The fusion of the toothed crown and the threaded ring makes it possible to reduce the number of components and therefore the weight of the system, which represents a major advantage for ultra light carbon wheels.
