The most reliable connection between wheel and fork.
Product details
The DT Swiss RWS axle with aluminium lever stands for a solid and
reliable connection between wheel and fork. Due to the direct transfer
of the lever force to the thread, the RWS can achieve up to 50% higher
clamping force than with conventional quick releases. This is not only
safer but also increases rigidity which is particularly noticeable with
disc brakes.

Regular hub service is worth it! Dust and dirt cause wear parts to wear out faster, which can impair function. We recommend cleaning the hub every 12 months and lubricating it with a suitable grease. Here you can find How To videos and user manuals for hub servicing. If you need to replace a ratchet, please contact our Service Center or a dealer.
There are various reasons why the freehub may be stuck. Our technical manuals can help you find the cause:
You can also convert our Pawl hubs to the Ratchet LN System. You can buy the Ratchet LN upgrade kit from dealers. The How To video explains conversion step by step.

Our hubs are marked with a production code. This starts with a "P" and can be found on the hub, either on the flange (on the disc brake side) or near the freehub body. See our How To video for more information.
