Shape new lines with the DT Swiss FR 1500 6B wheel. With a modified rim profile and the addition of place-specific materials, it achieves a lighter weight while improving impact resistance.

- Front wheel spoke count has been reduced from 32 to 28, reducing weight and increasing their responsiveness to direction changes
- Updated rim profile combined with 28 spokes at the front results in a 7% weight reduction for a pair of wheels compared to the previous DT Swiss FR 1950 CLASSIC model
- Built around the 240 hub that already boasts several World Cup victories
- Equipped with the Ratchet EXP 36T system and a classic configuration for uncompromising resistance
- 157 mm rear wheels include a Shimano 9/10/11 freehub body kit and 12 mm endcap kit; 148 mm rear wheels include Shimano Micro Spline freehub kit
