DT Swiss PRC 1600 SPLINE® DB 23 Road Front Wheel 28"/700C (12x100 mm)

When speed meets comfort, there needs to be no compromise!
The PR 1600 SPLINE® DB 23 road bike front wheel from wheel specialist DT Swiss proves this in a very impressive way. It combines durability and low weight as well as stiffness and comfort.

The high-quality and stable aluminium rim is specially designed for the loads with disc brakes. What’s more, with a 20 mm inner rim width, it is excellently suited for use with modern, large-volume road bike tyres.
In addition, the hassle-free tubeless compatibility allows you to enjoy the many advantages of modern tubeless systems. Lower weight, less rolling resistance, better puncture protection and greater comfort are, after all, not just arguments for professional riders. Ambitious hobby athletes especially benefit from these properties.
In conjunction with the streamlined bladed aero spokes and its excellent bearings, the high-quality DT Swiss 350 hub ensures maximum propulsion without friction loss.

The outstanding performance of the DT Swiss PR 1600 SPLINE® DB 23 front wheel helps you to reach top performance in training as well as to keep ahead of your competitors in races.

Technologies:

• 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.
