DT Swiss RR1.1 700c Wheel Set
Original price was: $599.99.$339.99Current price is: $339.99.
This wheel set uses all top end components. If you didn’t know a thing about high end rim brake road wheels, you could pick up a set of these and know there’s not much you could have done better, in terms of selection.
Description
The DT Swiss RR1.1 is a light weight, top quality welded road rim designed to improve upon the Mavic Open Pro. At 415g, it weighs in about 20g less than the Open Pro, or about 40g for the wheel set. Does that mean the RR415 isn’t as strong or as capable? Not even close. Keep in mind that the Open Pro has full double stainless steel eyelets, about 18-20g worth of material in every rim. If you were to swap those with single stainless eyelets, these two rims would be eerily similar. That’s Rad! Totally Rad!
We are building these RR1.1 rims up in three configurations:
1) With Silver DT RR1.1 rims (32 hole) and silver Shimano Ultegra 6700 series (8/9/10 spd), with Sapim Leader silver stainless spokes and brass chrome plated nipples
2) With Silver DT RR1.1 rims, (32 hole) and gray BWW Pure RT sealed bearing road hubs (8/9/10 spd), with Sapim Leader silver stainless spokes and brass chrome plated nipples
3) With Black DT RR1.1 rims, (36 hole) and black BWW Pure RT sealed bearing road hubs (8/9/10 spd), with a mix of black DT Revolution and SuperComp spokes and brass chrome plated nipples
All three options are laced three cross front and rear. This lace pattern offers excellent lateral strength while still allowing each wheel to absorb a fair amount of road vibration. Like all Shimano hubs, Ultegra 6700’s feature a loose ball bearing, cup and cone mechanism, are 8/9/10 speed compatible, and weigh in at about 500g for the set. The Pure RT hubs feature a light weight design with sealed cartridge bearings, and weigh in at about 425g for the set. Both the Shimano and RT hubs have an aluminum hub shell, steel axles, and steel freehubs that will resist cassette bite and hold up for a super long time. These wheels will ship with Velox 16mm cloth rim tape, (not installed), and QR levers respective to your wheel set selection.

Where is Your Wheel Set Weight?
Not all wheel weight is equal. Even though this is a 32/32 hole (or 36/36 hole) wheel set, these wheels are still very light weight. This is a result of using all top end components. The rims are at the very top of the list, in terms of accessible road rims for custom wheel builds. The Shimano hubs are actually heavy, by today’s standards, but will definitely work for a really long time. The Pure hubs are comparable in quality and finish to Shimano Ultegras, but come in a modernized sealed cartridge bearing design. The spokes and nipples are also high end, the net effect is a very polished, very nice road wheel set.
