Description

The DT Swiss XR 421 29 MTB rim in black delivers confidence in corners and calm in fast sections. It’s a component that quietly makes the whole bike faster while keeping the ride under control.

Main benefits

The light yet strong aluminium-alloy construction supports snappy acceleration and stable line-holding for cross-country riding. The asymmetric shape balances spoke tension, so the finished wheel feels stiffer and stays true even after demanding rides. The 30 mm internal width helps the tire sit better, increasing support in technical corners. The Tubeless Ready design makes it easier to switch to tubeless and reduces the risk of pinch flats at lower pressures.
