Lighter, stiffer, more precise and easier to maintain - the strengths of
the 180 hub are further enhanced with the new DT Swiss Ratchet EXP®
technology.
The ultra-reliable freehub system transfers the highest pedaling loads
resulting in direct power transmission.
Smooth-running SINC Ceramic bearings bring a decisive advantage with
their extremely low rolling resistance. DT Swiss 180 hubs - the ultimate
in lightweight, stiffness and durability.

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.

For MTB, boost hubs have become the new industry standard. The greater bearing distance increases the lateral stiffness of the bike and reduces ball bearing wear.
Unfortunately, you cannot convert non-boost hubs to wider distances nor boost to narrower distances (non-boost). This is because the boost hubs are wider in the center.
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.
The 180 is the hub used on the most prestigious DT Swiss wheels. Lighter, stiffer and easier to maintain are just some of the features that make it a decisive advantage, whether between the tape during a race or on a training ride.
