DT Swiss Spoke Competition Standard 290mm 2.0/1.8mm Black

The DT Swiss Competition Standard spokes are among the most adaptable in the DT Swiss range. These spokes gain their unique strength through cold forging, making them incredibly durable. With a thinner middle section, they're 48 g lighter than a 1.8 mm constant - diameter spoke. The perfect balance of strength and weight in the 2.0 mm version allows for diverse applications, from road bike wheels to ultra - light enduro MTB wheels. Please note, spokes no longer come with nipples by default. You'll need to order the required nipples separately.

Using these DT Swiss spokes is easy. First, make sure you've ordered the right nipples separately. When installing, carefully thread the spokes through the wheel hub and rim, then attach the nipples and tighten them gradually. For maintenance, regularly check the tightness of the spokes to ensure they're secure. If you notice any loose or damaged spokes, replace them right away. Keep the spokes clean by wiping them with a dry cloth, and avoid exposing them to extreme moisture or harsh chemicals to prolong their lifespan.
