For riders who are never satisfied with second place, the DT Swiss XRC 1200 SPLINE is built to deliver uncompromising Cross-Country performance. Engineered for explosive acceleration, razor-sharp handling, and race-winning efficiency, this wheelset represents the pinnacle of DT Swiss MTB innovation.

A lighter front rim enhances agility and steering precision, while the rear wheel is optimized for maximum power transfer and durability. The result is a wheelset designed to help you take the lead, and stay there.

Next-Generation Carbon Rim Technology

Pure Carbon. Maximum Compression. Zero Compromise.

The XRC 1200 SPLINE introduces an industry-disrupting rim manufacturing process that achieves maximum carbon layer compression, creating rims that are both exceptionally light and remarkably durable.

Each rim undergoes a 100% layer-by-layer non-destructive inspection, ensuring minimal imperfections and consistent performance. Carbon layers fully enclose the rim horns, reinforcing them against impacts with long, uninterrupted fibers, no cosmetic finishing required, straight out of the mold.

Agility Meets Control

- 30 mm internal width for modern XC tire profiles

- Hookless tubeless TSS interface for optimal tire stability and impact resistance

- Precise handling with increased grip and lower rolling resistance

180 Hub with Ratchet EXP 54
