DT Swiss 240s Straight-Pull 6-Bolt 12mm Thru-Axle Shimano Rear Hub
The DT Swiss 240s Straight Pull 6-Bolt 12mm Thru-Axle Shimano Rear Hub features a forged aluminium body that keeps weight to a minimum, offers excellent strength and has redesigned flanges to accommodate straight-pull spokes. The freehub integrates the Hugi star ratchet system along with 18 engagement teeth to deliver a super-quick response to pedalling input, while a special coating on these internal components vastly increases their lifespan. A quad bearing system with corrosion-resistant steel bearings and double-flange sealing heightens durability. The no-tool configuration completes the design, allowing easy servicing, which is ideal after a season of hard riding.
