XRC 1700 Spline 29" Carbon Front Wheel

DT Swiss XRC 1700 Spline 29" Carbon Front Wheel is a purpose-built XC/trail front wheel for riders who want carbon responsiveness, modern tubeless compatibility, and DT Swiss hub durability in a proven package.

Built around a tubeless-ready, asymmetric hookless carbon rim, it delivers precise steering and efficient power transfer while supporting lower pressures for improved grip and reduced pinch-flat risk. The Spline 350-series Center Lock hub with a 54t Ratchet System provides fast, positive engagement for technical climbing and punchy accelerations, while straight-pull DT Swiss Competition Race double-butted spokes and alloy ProLock Squorx nipples support long-term stability under hard use.
