DT Swiss FR 1950 Classic Rear
Details
The FR 1950 Classic directly hails from the development factory that is the Downhill World Cup. The world’s wildest racers like Danny Hart and Brendan Fairclough have helped to develop this downhillers dream wheel. Thanks to its 27.5mm inner width, 240s thru axle hubs, and high-quality build based on DT Competition spokes, it sprints out of the start gate and delivers right to the finish line.
Going tubeless allows you to run lower tire pressures without the added weight of a tube. Lower tire pressure has many benefits, including greater traction, lower rolling resistance over rough surfaces, and decreased risk of a puncture-related flat.
Tubeless-ready rims and tires are parts of a complete system that eliminate the need for tubes by creating an airtight chamber between the rim and tire. Liquid sealant is added to the chamber to fill small punctures and maintain air pressure while you ride.
UST (Universal Standard for Tubeless) is a specific type of tubeless system that dictates the shape of the rim and tire beads. UST rims should be paired with UST-specific tires for best results.
