«Overall, the DT Swiss FR 1500 wheelset has been the most reliable and trustworthy alloy option I’ve ridden. They’ve lasted through a solid chunk of the summer aboard a downhill bike without asking for much in the way of maintenance.»
It’s not long until the bike parks reopen! Is your setup ready? Our recommendation for DH or freeride: the FR 1500 CLASSIC. The same wheels as our pro riders.

Years of experience and knowledge in aluminum rim development allowed DT Swiss engineers to develop a more impact resistant rim.
The profile of the FR 1500 CLASSIC rim is based on the EX rim profiles but has had material added in specific areas, increasing the overall strength of the profile to create a rim adapted and durable to the practice of freeride and downhill.
