Enduro Optimised, Lightweight and Strong This DT Swiss E 532 Rim features a wide 30mm optimised internal width, which provides wide tyres with a perfect profile. Wide rims, when used with wider tyres will create the perfect tyre shape, making the most of the tyre's tread characteristics, grip, traction and rolling performance. This strong, lightweight and modern-profile rim is the perfect addition to any wheel build and can increase the performance of your trail-ready mountain bike (MTB). Available Options: 28H means 28 spoke holes 32H means 32 spoke holes Technologies: Tubeless Technology: Tubeless tyres have several advantages over the conventional combination of tube and tyre. The tyre can run with lower pressures providing better grip without risking snakebites. The lower pressure also results in a more comfortable ride. Eliminating the tube means there is no friction between tube and tyre and therefore less rolling resistance when the tyre rolls over the ground and obstacles. If tubeless milk is used, the tyre can self-seal stings and small cuts. A big advantage for all those who like to ride for long and far away from the nearest bike shop.
Featuring a 30mm internal width with a minimal bead hook, the DT Swiss XM 481 achieves the perfect tyre profile and as it's also tubeless compatible, it's ready to tackle any mountain terrain you can place in front of it.

With the lever stored away from the axle, you won't have to worry about it being caught on stray twigs or branches when shredding the trails. The removable lever also acts as a deterrent from wheel theft.
