a Racer Date Reviewed: October 9, 2012 Strengths: This is far and away the best piece of cycling equipment that I own. I have four DT 240s; three rear and one front. The smooth bearings, awesome longevity, light weight and ease of maintenance make this the best thing going for XC, "trail", or AM use. I have them on both my 29er HT and my 26" Anthem X FS bike. Ton of miles in OR, IL, GA, and NY. Held up to everything with just a light coating of DT's pink star ratchet grease needed to make them right as rain. Weaknesses: None. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Boundary Trail No. 1, WA Duration Product Used: 3 years Purchased At: Bike shop, MTBR clas Similar Products Used: Shimano XTR Bike Setup: Chinese carbon frame - 16" XX drivetrain and brakes Enve composites wheels and handlebar DT 240s F and R hubs with 9mm/10mm RWS

from Jackson, MI Date Reviewed: March 23, 2012 Strengths: Light weight, durable, and easy to work on. Only one special tool is really required to remove the lock ring nut. Engagement is nice with the 36 tooth star ratchet. I have had zero problems with these hubs (front included). Much better that the Shimano XTR hubs I previously had. I also upgraded to the 10mm RWS thru axle. Looks boss (awesome, dope, gnarly, totally tubular, whatever) on the bike. Weaknesses: Other than needing the one tool, nothing. Tool can be had on the bay for cheap, BTW\. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: All of them Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $150.00 Purchased At: Friend (price was fo Similar Products Used: Shimano Bike Setup: Santa Cruz Blur with DT Swiss 240s hubs and other stuff and junk.
