DT Swiss makes rims and hubs that are well liked and respected by cyclists worldwide, and the same is true for us here in South Africa.
Availability of their rims and hubs has always been a bit patchy, but there are some solid options available at the moment, which I’ll share below.
(Accurate at time of publication – 27 May 2025)

FR541 – Their DH and freeride-focused rims are not currently in stock.
EX511 – Their 30mm inner width Enduro rim is available in 29″ and 32h
