Spokes dt champion or competition

727 · Apr 19, 2013

Hello, I'm wondering which to buy DT champion spokes or competition? They mount ztr flow wheels and hubs 32h hope
The use is for enduro strong, and I would like them to be the most strongest possible, since the price is almost the same.
The weight does not matter too much as I would go with tires mounted 2.35.

Competition without a doubt. Even though they are thinner in the center of the spoke this actually makes for an overall more durable spoke as the center acts like a spring when the spoke is stressed, thereby preventing spoke breakage at the nipple or hub end.

DT pro-lite aero 14G appears to be a straight gauge vs. competition which is a butted spoke. Since you said you wanted the strongest spokes, go with a butted spoke.

I've found I've had better results using double butted spokes like the DT Comp, which is my personal choice when I wants spokes. Wheels are strong and seem to build easier :skep:
