E-MTB-friendly toughness at a budget-friendly price; the H 1900's have long been the choice for EMTB riders looking for improved reliability and the latest versions have been upgraded with Ratchet LN technology to provide even more trouble-free laps
E-MTB's are tough on wheels, really tough, not only is there the added weight and higher maximum drive torque but E-MTB riders tend to ride further and more frequently, this adds up to a real challenge for anyone looking to design a truly durable wheel for long term E-MTB use The result is DT's mission Hybrid, the first wheel engineering project to look specifically at the challenges of heavy duty E-MTB use for wheels So, what's changed? the short answer... Everything! The H 1900's hub shells are oversized to improve overall stiffness and the rear hub contains an 18-tooth ratchet LN freehub system, by far and away the most reliable drive mechanism available at this price point The sleeved alloy rims have reinforced spoke beds to resist fatigue and handle high loads for long periods of time The straight pull spokes are custom made for Hybrid with an oversized 2.35 mm hub interface designed to protect one of the key points of stress on any wheel In order for a wheel to pass as Hybrid certified in DT's inhouse testing lab it has to survive 50% more lifecycles, its spokes and rims have to endure 20% higher load tests and the bearings must be able to handle almost twice the maximum load of a standard wheel Whilst intended for E-MTB use, the Hybrid range is also ideal for larger riders, bike packers or anyone looking for a really durable wheelset with a high weight limit Available in a 30 mm internal width to support modern high volume trail rubber System weight limit: 150KG, Come with DT tubeless rim tape and valves included
