DT Swiss RevoLite cold-forges an all-new lightweight cross-bladed steel mountain bike spoke for stronger MTB wheels...
DT Swiss has an all-new light & strong premium steel spoke with a cold-forged, fluted profile called the RevoLite. Something of a mash-up between their best lightweight round double-butted spokes and their best lightweight aero-bladed spokes – this one ends up with a round center flanked by squared-off wings throughout the reduced mid-section in the spokes’ overall length.
Plus, if I wanted something ultralight, I’d likely task a more experienced builder to try something silly like flexible fiber or bladed carbon spokes.spoke manufacturing in Switzerland from our Factory Tour Now like those AeroLites, the new RevoLites also combine these multiple round & flat forging techniques .
Weight-wise, DT claims the stiffer bladed RevoLite to be 4.45g per spoke , compared to the simply double-butted Revolution at 4.42g or the thicker but still butted Competition Race at 4.88g . Compared to the aero-bladed road spokes, the butted AeroLite is lighter at 4.34g , while the thicker but still butted AeroComp is 5.9g .
