DT Swiss GRC 1400 SPLINE 42 Wheelset - 28" | Carbon | Hookless | Centerlock - 12x100mm | 12x142mm - N3W

GRC 1400 – Exploring new paths

No cars, untouched nature and endless trails. What used to be the terrain of mountain bikers now also fascinates road cyclists. DT Swiss Gravel wheels offer the perfect blend of comfort, durability and off-road performance. Made for countless adventures off the road.

The GRC 1400 SPLINE 42 wheelset is the racing king in the DT Swiss Gravel family. The profession of the technically advanced wheels is to explore new paths, and that at maximum speed. While the rim design trimmed for aerodynamic efficiency provides outstanding comfort and drive even on loose surfaces, the wide construction is responsible for exceptional durability. Each wheel is completed by a reliable 240 SPLINE hub and aerodynamic DT Swiss aero comp® spokes.

Legendary reliability | The wheels of the GRC 1400 SPLINE (Straight Pull Line) series are designed to provide Gravel bikers with components on which they can rely 100 % when they move off paved roads. Thanks to manual work, not only a precise manufacturing quality is achieved, but also the well-known, brand-typical reliability is ensured.

Ratchet freewheel system | The special feature of the patented freewheel system is that all teeth of the two installed ratchet pulleys always mesh simultaneously. Compared to pawl freewheel hubs, where the engagement surface is comparatively small, the loads are distributed evenly over a large contact surface by including the entire face surfaces. The result is lower point loading and thus significantly higher reliability.

Pro Lock technology | The DT Pro Lock spoke nipples prevent an independent loosening of the spoke-nipple connection. A patented two-component adhesive is injected into the nipple thread, which allows the construction of extremely durable wheels. Once the nipples are screwed in, the adhesive is activated and then fully cures. Repeated re-centering is possible without any problems, although the adhesive strength decreases slightly with each re-centering.

Scope of supply:

• front wheel + rear wheel
• Campagnolo N3W freewheel (mounted)
• Tubeless rim tape (27 mm)
• Tubeless valves (aluminum, 36-48 mm)

* Hookless rims are specifically designed for use with Tubeless tires. It is also possible to ride a Tubeless-specific tire with a tube. However, the use of clincher or folding tires is not recommended.
