The all-new DT Swiss Hybrid MTB LS wheelsets propose to offer 'Light Support' for lightweight light-assist eMTBs, available in carbon & alloy
DT Swiss say their testing showed the loads experienced by wheels on these lighter light-assist eBikes are different to the loads experienced by the wheels of the full-power eBikes. That comes as no surprise, of course; with battery capacities often well in excess of 600 Wh, and motors with maximum torque values of 90Nm, those rims are carrying a heavier load, and the hubs resisting greater lateral and torsional forces than the wheels of eBikes with 240-360 Wh batteries and 50 Nm torque motors.
The percentage difference between those two hypothetical system weights is just 7.4%. The weight of the bike doesn’t account for a lot in the grand scheme, and the spectrum of rider weights we see can be vast in comparison. I just thought it pertinent to put that into perspective here. Thus, they saw fit to “close the gap” between the requirements of a regular mountain bike wheel, and the requirements of the wheel of a full-power eMTB. They also wanted to tailor these new wheelsets to fit the needs of the rider who has chosen to purchase a lightweight light-assist eMTB over a full-power option because they prefer the more natural ride feel of the lighter eBike.
Claimed weight for the HXC 1501 SPLINE ONE wheelset is 1691g; we assume that’s for the 27.5″ wheelset. A 29″ wheelset is also available of course, as is a mullet wheelset consisting of a 29″ front wheel and a 27.5″ rear. The spacing on those wheelsets is 15 x 110 mm Boost and 12 x 148 mm Boost . No word on a Super Boost offering.The HX 1700 SPLINE LS wheelset is DT Swiss’ aluminum offering to riders of lightweight light-assist eMTBs.
