The M 1900 SPLINE wheels were developed to meet the demands of the new All Mountain bikes. The high-quality, machined hubs of the M 1900 SPLINE incorporate all of DT Swiss's hub expertise.

In the Pro Lock process, a patented two-component adhesive is injected into the nipple thread, allowing for the construction of extremely durable wheels. Once the nipples are screwed in, the adhesive is activated, curing completely at room temperature in about 6 - 7 hours. Re-centering is easily possible multiple times, although the adhesive strength slightly decreases with each re-centering.
