EX 1700 Classic 27.5" Super Boost Rear Wheel

DT Swiss EX 1700 Classic 27.5" Super Boost Rear Wheel is a tough, service-friendly upgrade for riders who want a modern, tubeless-ready rear wheel with fast engagement and the durability expected from DT Swiss’ proven alloy platform.

Built around a tubeless-ready asymmetric welded alloy rim and laced with DT Swiss Competition Race J-bend double-butted spokes, this wheel balances strength and long-term tension stability for demanding trail mileage. The 350-series 6-bolt disc hub uses the 72t Ratchet DEG System, and comes with Degrees of Freedom installed—an easily adjustable, on/off pedal kickback system with 0/10/20-degree settings for tuning drivetrain feel on full-suspension bikes.

Trail-focused details that matter

1. Tubeless-Ready Rim (tape + valve included) - Arrives with factory-installed rim tape and a tubeless valve to streamline setup and support lower-pressure traction
2. Asymmetric Welded Alloy Rim - Asymmetric drilling helps balance spoke bracing angles for more even tension and a more consistent wheel build
3. 350-Series 6-Bolt Disc Hub - Proven DT Swiss hub architecture with easy serviceability and broad brake rotor compatibility via the 6-bolt interface
4. 72t Ratchet DEG System - High tooth count engagement for quicker pickup under power, especially noticeable when accelerating out of corners or restarting on technical climbs
5. Degrees of Freedom (0/10/20°) - Adjustable on/off pedal kickback system lets the rider tune hub behavior to match suspension kinematics and riding preference
