DT Swiss P 1800 SPLINE® 23 Road Front Wheel 28”/700C (5.100mm, rim brake)

From conquering your local climbs to exploring Alpine passes – the P 1800 SPLINE® 23 wheel for rim brakes was developed by DT Swiss for all altitudes. The traditional Swiss manufacturer focused on the essentials and thus ensures dynamic and driving fun without putting too much strain on the budget.

The wide and yet lightweight aluminium rim is connected to the high-quality DT Swiss S370 hub via stable bladed aero spokes and is ideal for use with modern, large-volume road bike tyres. The result is a total package with an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio. Thanks to its hassle-free tubeless compatibility, you can enjoy the many advantages of modern tubeless systems. Lower weight, less rolling resistance, better puncture protection and higher comfort turn each of your training rides into a real pleasure.

The P 1800 Spline® 23 front wheel is the right choice for fast and safe road cycling. It gives you enough power to challenge your fellow riders to a little sprint at the next town sign.

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.
