DT Swiss Alpine III spokes are triple butted so that the center is thinner in diameter than at each end with the end closest to the hub being the thicker than the threaded end for even more strength.
DT Swiss's cold forging technology reduces the center diameter for better strength to weight over a straight gauge spoke with improved elasticity for better durability and improved ride quality.
