Made in Belgium, from Titanium

All the bells and whistles out of the box. 

No middleman to inflate the price. 

Our Yama hubs, manufactured by Erase in Belgium, are premium ratchet hubs with all the upgrades included. They offer the same legendary reliability as DT Swiss products, with a bit of extra bling on top. 

• Titanium freehub
• 60T high engagement ratchet
• TPI bearings (same as DT 240 EXP)
• Precision seals for proven multi-season bearing life

We score them a 7/10 in loudness, and they sound quite similar to Chris Kings. 

Weight
Front : 127 grams
Rear : 245 grams

Reliable, excellent strength-to-weight ratio, and perfectly round from the factory. 

Setting the MTB alloy rim benchmark for the last five years. 

XM481 - For Trail and All-Mountain wheelsets, and strong enough on the front of an Enduro bike. 

FR541 - A must for gravity riders hard on their wheels, and e-bikes with the extra mass. All additional weight is in the flange for improved dent resistance. 

We don’t offer the EX511 as it’s just 10 grams lighter than the FR541 and materially weaker. Please contact us if you really want this rim. 

Alpina Raggi Spokes and Nipples

The highest quality spoke and nipples, made in Italy since 1926.

Alpina is famous for its automation, which ensures consistency and quality whilst manufacturing wheel components. Alpina Nyloc nipples are particularly innovative, with a high 12Nm of locking force consistent throughout the lifetime of the nipple, no matter how many times they are adjusted. All Alpina spokes are guaranteed to be made from the highest quality European wire, unlike some of its closest competitors.

The Alpina Lite spoke is a double butted round spoke directly equivalent to the DT Swiss Competition.

The Alpina Ultralite Aero spoke is a bladed spoke directly equivalent to a DT Swiss AeroLite. Swapping to the Ultralite Aero spoke saves approximately 100g on your wheelset.
