The company we now know as DT Swiss has been drawing steel in Biel for over 350 years and their spokes are still made completely in house in Switzerland to the highest possible standards of quality and workmanship
The Alpine III is the strongest spoke available, making it suitable for use in extreme off road conditions, tandems, E-bikes and heavily laden tourers
The 13 / 15 / 14 gauge triple butted spoke is 1.8 mm thick in the centre to save weight, 2 mm thick at the rim end to use standard size nipples, and 2.34 mm thick at the hub end where the greatest strength is needed
Whereas other brands stretch and weaken their spokes to butt them, DT's unique and closely patented ultrasonic peening process cold forges the spoke, actually strengthening the metal, giving DT's the best strength to weight ratio of any butted spokes
Made exclusively from Swedish X5 stainless steel that is custom blended just for DT
The rolling of the nipple thread removes no metal from the spoke and preserves the grain of the material, maximising strength and greatly reducing the likelihood of failure at the threads, a common issue with lower quality spokes
Weight: 418 grams for 64 x 264 mm length spokes, 2 mm thread
Approved for E-bike use
