The low weight of the especially for all mountain usage engineered rim paired with the latest evolution of DT Swiss 240 hub with Ratchet EXP freehub make the XMC 1501 Spline One the perfect partner in crime for all different kind of mountain adventures. Due to the 30 mm inner width of the tubeless optimized carbon rim, wide tires are ideally supported. Double butted competition race spokes and the perfect DT Swiss build quality are rounding the XMC 1501 Spline One off. Features Material: Carbon. Rim type: Clincher. Inner width: 30 mm. Outer width: 36 mm. Recommended system weight max.: 120 kg. Decal type: Waterslide. Hub Type: DT Swiss 240. Built-in dimension: 110 mm boost (front) / 148 mm boost (rear).

ASTM classification: 4. Technologies Tubeless Tubeless ready DT Swiss rims have further advantages over conventional rims. The design of their cross section allows for the tyre to easily pop in place when inflated, and more often than not a standard floor pump is all that‘s needed. Also the elaborate profile of DT Swiss rims ensures a precise and safe fit of the tyre even when ridden hard. Ratchet exp Simple maintenance: DT Swiss hubs are also known for the no tool technology. DT Swiss also found a way to further improve this system and make maintenance even simpler, by a small change of the endcaps. Freehub body conversion: Simplified due to easier disassembly. Less Weight: Not only the reliability improved. The fusion of ratchet and threaded ring reduces the number of single parts of the system what offers an important advantage. Less Wear: A single cylindrical spring ensures faster full engagement and thus increases reliability Superior Reliability: The full engagement of the ratchets creates a large contact surface and therefore low surface pressure that leads to superior reliability. Increased Bearing Lifetime: The integration of the bearing into the threaded ring allows the bearing distance to be maximized. The increased distance further supports the axis, which results in less deflection of the axle and thus protects the bearings and increases their lifetime. Prolock Pro Lock® is a process where a patented, dual compound, adhesive liquid is injected into the nipple thread, allowing for extremely durable wheel builds. By threading the nipple onto the spoke the adhesive is activated and starts to harden. Retruing the wheel is still possible after the adhesive has hardened completely, with only a minimal decrease of its thread-lock function. Engagement Angle A hotly discussed topic in the market right now - engagement angle! What is the engagement angle, how does this angle affect riding performance and is the conventional wisdom the more the better really always better? The engagement angle is the maximum degree that the freehub body can rotate until the teeth of the freewheel system engage and accelerate the hub. This angle is calculated by dividing 360º by the number of engagement points of the freewheel system. DT Swiss still believe that a system with 36 points of engagement represents the best optimization within this three dimensional perspective in terms of reliability, weight and points of engagement.

Cross Country wheels are ideal for fast racing, therefore it’s necessary to minimise resistance wherever possible. On a rough surface, rolling resistance can make up to 69% of the total resistance. SPEED = ENERGY / INTERTIA MOMENT + ROLLING RESISTANCE + GRADE RESISTANCE + DRAG Rolling resistance is defined as: rolling resistance coefficient x weight x gravitational acceleration. The coefficient is defined by wheel size, tyre section, tyre characteristics, tyre pressure, tread and soil. While most of those factors are hardly influenced by the wheel, DT Swiss modified the tyre support. A wider rim provides improved tyre support which offers lower tyre pressure and leads to less rolling resistance on rough tracks. Weight-to-Durability — Optimized Carbon Layup The low weight of the XMC 1501 SPLINE® ONE reduces the moment of inertia, allowing a higher speed with the same amount of energy compared to aluminium wheels. The low moment of inertia saves energy on ascents and allows for more fun on descents. The impact resistance of XMC carbon rims lies in between the EXC and XRC. The XMC 1501 SPLINE® ONE is classified as ASTM Category 4 with a maximum system weight of 120kg, which represents the use of components in rough terrain. 240 Straightpull + EXP Hub — DT Swiss Hub Technology Lighter, stiffer, more precise and even easier to maintain than its predecessor: The 240 Straightpull hub is a must for 1501 SPLINE® ONE wheels. In the rear the RATCHET EXP free hub system, which comes with 36 points of engagement, transfers the power directly to the underground and is more durable than ever. DT Swiss hubs have earned their legendary reputation for quality and performance. There are multiple features that make this product a winner: The Ratchet System® driver mechanism is extremely durable, reliable and can be serviced without special tools in minutes, thanks to its simple press fit assembly. The press fit assembly also allows all hubs to work in almost any currently existing axle configuration, making them compatible with almost every bike. The contact free seals and high precision build guarantee smooth bearings; every bit of the rider’s energy is transformed into forward momentum. These features and the super lightweight design of all the hub parts highlights the racing legacy of this classic hub. SPLINE® Technology With their intricately machined hub shells, cleverly positioned spokes and proven freewheel technology, DT Swiss SPLINE® wheels are engineered with modern riding needs in mind. SPLINE® allows riders to go faster and further, ultimately making the cycling experience even more fun.The combination of high attention to detail and the legendary DT Swiss reliability featured with SPLINE® will make you smile ride after ride, year after year. Straightpull Technology The term Straightpull refers to spokes with no bend at the head. This design allows for an ideal strength to weight ratio when compared to conventional spokes. Due to their more precise alignment and direct trajectory, straight-pull spoke technology creates a stiffer, more responsive wheel.
