Description
- Born directly out of the 4 years of Pro Peloton product development with IAM cycling that produced multiple Grand Tour stage wins; the 65 and 35 mm deep PRC series wheels are DT's all round real world race weapons
- Whilst they may give up small amounts of straight up speed to the Aero-focussed ARC line, the PRC's offer wider rims, a more robust build and widely available spares, they are aimed at the racer who wants speed, handling, reliability and easy servicing in a top-value package
- The bespoke carbon rims are manufactured using a method developed by DT to ensure continuous carbon fibres are aligned with the forces passing through the wheel, increasing strength and stiffness in use without adding weight
- DT have worked with their carbon vendor to develop a new resin polymer for use in their brake tracks, this new resin improves heat resistance by 20% versus the previous generation, improving braking power and consistency, especially on longer descents
- 18 mm internal width is optimised for 25 c tyres and gives a larger contact patch and greater comfort over poor road surfaces without sacrificing too much aerodynamic performance
- DT's SPLINE series 240 ratchet hubs have long been a byword for reliability and low weight, for 2018 the spline spoke mounting has been revised to allow improved bracing angles, improving lateral stiffness for no additional weight, a fast-engaging 36-tooth ratchet completes a premium package
- DT's straightpull Aerolite and Aerospeed spokes offer a highly optimised mix of low weight, stiffness and aerodynamic performance with DT's renowned reliability
- For those looking to use the latest tyre tech the PRC 1400's come tubeless ready but can also be used with standard clinchers
- Maximum recommended system weight: 100 KG
- When bought as a pair they will include SwissStop brake pads, tubeless rim tape and valves
- Weight: Front 759 grams Rear:910 grams
