technology
We believe in the art of engineering and strive for sophistication in the product development process. Our guiding idea is to constantly push barriers with our inhouse developed technologies.
As a tire can make or break aerodynamic performance, it was a logical next step to combine the aerodynamically optimized wheels with the ideal tire to make a top performing system.
Ratchet EXP is the lightest freehub system from DT Swiss. The fusion of the ratchet and the threaded ring in the Ratchet EXP hub increases durability while decreasing weight.
Learn how to ensure the optimal rotating property of the ball bearings and discover why DT Swiss does not offer hubs with adjustable bearing clearance.

3 new rim heights 📐 ARC the third
Thanks to three distinctive rim heights, a wide variety of riding preferences can be covered: do you like to ride fast on a variety of terrain, without fearing an occasional steep climb? Then the 55 mm rim height is the ideal one for you.
The 65 mm deep rims let you take the lead of the sprint with their fast aero-optimized profile and are ideal for flat out rides on flat terrain.
And finally, the highest rim, the 85 mm are the fastest and offer the lowest drag, ideal for triathlons or time trials.

Take the lead of the bike leg: when a fast setup is needed for all out speed at your next triathlon or time trial. Ideally suiting both 28 and 25 mm tires, mount AERO 111 26 mm for the best aero performance.
Take the lead of your most wanted KOM: their low aero dynamic drag are ideal for all out racing, cutting through the air with speed in the final meters of the sprint to take the win. They will shine on flat and fast roads.
Take the lead on the climb: those wheels provide a good aerodynamic performance with easy handling, and their lower weight will be a great ally on the ascent.
With a newly developed carbon layup and a rim height of 38 mm, this wheel not only claims the title of lightest wheel in our ARC line, but thanks to its careful aero optimization, also promises a swift rise to the top.
The ARC 1400 DICUT db wheels come as an aero-optimized Wheel Tire System (WTS). For the 55 mm and 65 mm rim heights, they are equipped with the new AERO 111 front tire in a 29 mm width and a Continental GP 5000 STR rear tire in 30 mm. For the 38 mm and 85 mm rim options, the setup includes a 26 mm AERO 111 tire in the front and a 28 mm Continental GP 5000 STR in the rear.

Product support
According to your selection ARC 1400 DICUT® DB we found 16 models. Please use the model finder above to narrow down the models. Select the model for which you need product support.
The current DT Swiss wheels are tubeless-ready and come with mounted tubeless rim tape and corresponding valves. For conversion, you will need a tubeless-capable tire (optimal: UST) and tire sealant. You can find both at an official dealer. Our How To video will take you through step-by-step assembly.
If you have previously ridden your bike with a tube or if the tape no longer sticks properly to the rim, we recommend that you replace the rim tape as a precaution.
How to attach the tubeless rim tape:
1. Measure the inside width of the rim.
2. The tubeless rim tape should be approx. 2 mm wider than the rim and can be bought from a specialist store.
3. Apply the tubeless rim tape. Depending on the rim/tire combination, it may be helpful to apply two or three layers of tubeless rim tape to optimally seal the rim bed.

Since 2020, all wheels and suspension products are equipped with the 7-digit DT Swiss ID. If your product does not have a DT Swiss ID, you can also identify it using the filter function or the material number. Here you can find everything about the exact positioning of the DT Swiss ID on our products.
Under Product Support, you will find exact details of all conversion options for your product (wheel, hub). First go to Product Support and select your product using the DT Swiss ID or filter. Under "Conversion" you will find the exact details for all conversion options. You will also find helpful How To videos and manuals.
The tire should be pumped in line with the manufacturer's instructions, in order to ensure optimum rolling resistance.
Note: This can vary depending on the tire manufacturer and model. The tire pressure impacts both the ride comfortability and stability of the wheel. See our tire pressure table for an overview of maximum tire pressures depending on tire and rim width.
In cycling, rim height significantly impacts the aerodynamics, maneuverability and weight of the wheel. Basically, the higher the rim, the greater the aerodynamic advantage. The lower the rim, the more agile and maneuverable the handling.
By buying a DT Swiss carbon wheel, you will benefit from the Fair Share Policy which allows you to profit from a crash replacement service for your wheels, available for 10 years after purchase.
