The 240 is designed for riders with the most extreme ambitions. You have the choice whether you want to count on the 240 with a weight advantage from the DT Swiss Ratchet EXP system.
Ratchet Exp
- The 240 hub is available with the lighter Ratchet EXP freehub system
Ratchet Exp:
- The lightest freehub system from DT Swiss.
Ratchet Deg:
- The fastest engaging freehub system from DT Swiss, with 54T. Its innovative construction allows bearing replacement without special tools, as the threaded ring does not have to be removed.
IS 6-Bolt:
- IS is short for International Standard and describes a mounting system for brake discs. 6-bolt refers to the fact that the brake disc is in this case mounted on the hub using 6 bolts.
Shim. 12SP Light (ASL12):
- Milled aluminum MICRO SPLINE freehub body for Shimano 12-speed cassettes.
Boost:
- Boost refers to wider axle dimensions. Frame and fork manufacturers use this to build a stiffer bike overall. A flatter spoke angle on the wheel can be created by increasing the flange distance, which improves the symmetry and increases the stiffness, especially on large wheels.
Thru-axle:
- Thru-axle refers to a wheel mounting system. RWS technology from DT Swiss allows quick, precise mounting simply by turning an easily adjustable lever. Thru-axle systems guarantee a rigid and secure connection between the wheel and the frame. Thru-axles must be compatible with the frame and fork because the built-in-width, diameter and thread of the axle vary and are defined by the frame and fork manufacturer.

Bearing Technology:
- DT Swiss hubs are designed to function optimally once installed in a bicycle. To achieve this, the clamping force created by the wheel mounting system must be taken into account when constructing a hub. Learn how to ensure the optimal rotating property of the ball bearings and discover why DT Swiss does not offer hubs with adjustable bearing clearance.
