Cross Road
#OFFTHEBEATENROADS
You ride over a wide range of terrain during training or in races,
sometimes muddy or sandy. The tires may lose contact with the ground
briefly when riding over drops up to 15 cm high, but you keep control of
your bike in tight sections at all times and can quickly accelerate.
Aerodynamics are less important to you, so rim heights are lower. The
Cross Road wheels made from aluminum and carbon are only available for
disc brake systems.

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.

With their lower rim heights, these wheels are made to keep your bike under control even in tight sections and accelarate quickly out of corners and into climbs. Like Cross Road wheels, the Gravel wheels are also made of aluminum or carbon and are only available for disc brake systems. Gravel wheels are optimized for long-distance riding on unpaved roads, including extensive bikepacking tours. Compared to their Cross Road counterparts, Gravel wheels have wider rims and can accommodate much wider, more comfortable tires, making them a perfect fit for modern gravel bikes. Within the Gravel category, the DT Swiss Carbon Gravel wheels are not only light but also aerodynamically optimized, making them a perfect choice for gravel races when seconds count.
