Envision riding the fastest line, a rocky ridge or over a nasty field of
roots without fear. The EXC 1200 CLASSIC supports your most daring line
choices, with still plenty of reserve if they don’t go to plan. Our
unique process provides maximum carbon compression to push durability
further than ever before. A patent-pending technique for layer-by-layer
quality control ensures minimized imperfections straight out of the
mold, to maximize your commitment. A lighter front rim has 28 DT
revolite spokes, while the more durable rear rim has 32. The high-
engaging Ratchet DEG makes for a smaller idle distance, crucial for
acceleration out of corners. Get ready to push on the stages and break

Are you looking for the user manual, searching for compatible replacement parts, or do you want to know which components are installed in your product?
All this information is stored in our useful Product Support. By entering the 7-digit DT Swiss ID or scanning the corresponding QR code / dot code with your mobile camera, you can easily identify your product. Please note that the dot code can only be read with this specific scan reader.
Since 2020, all wheels and suspension products are equipped with the 7-digit DT Swiss ID. If your product does not have a DT Swiss ID, you can also identify it using the filter function or the material number. Here you can find everything about the exact positioning of the DT Swiss ID on our products.
The current DT Swiss wheels are tubeless-ready and come with mounted tubeless rim tape and corresponding valves. For conversion, you will need a tubeless-capable tire (optimal: UST) and tire sealant. You can find both at an official dealer. Our How To video will take you through step-by-step assembly.
If you have previously ridden your bike with a tube or if the tape no longer sticks properly to the rim, we recommend that you replace the rim tape as a precaution.
How to attach the tubeless rim tape:
1. Measure the inside width of the rim.
2. The tubeless rim tape should be approx. 2 mm wider than the rim and can be bought from a specialist store.
3. Apply the tubeless rim tape. Depending on the rim/tire combination, it may be helpful to apply two or three layers of tubeless rim tape to optimally seal the rim bed.
