EXC 1500 Carbon Front Wheel

New Carbon mountain bike wheelset from the masters at DT Swiss. 

Designed for aggressive enduro riding, this is a front wheel that thrives in technical terrain, big hits and high-speed lines—keeping your ride composed when things get rowdy.

At the heart of the wheel sits DT Swiss’ legendary 240 hub, now upgraded with a rapid-engaging 90T DEG ratchet system. It delivers near-instant power transfer while featuring an innovative tool-free adjustable anti-pedal kickback system, allowing you to fine-tune float to 0°, 10° or 20° depending on your suspension setup and riding style.

Strength and ride feel are dialled thanks to classic flange hub architecture paired with Swiss-made J-bend Competition spokes. With a 28-spoke front build, you get a balance of durability and compliance that smooths out harsh terrain without sacrificing precision.

The rim is where things really step up. DT Swiss’ asymmetrical carbon construction uses their advanced PURE carbon layup, reinforcing high-stress areas while trimming excess weight where possible. The result is a tough, lightweight carbon rim that tracks accurately and holds up under serious abuse.

Each rim is checked after production using DT's layer-by-layer scanning system to check for voids or defects prior to assembly. The rims use front and rear-specific lay-ups to allow further tuning to ride quality and impact resistance
