11 kilometres with an average gradient of 6.5% topping out at 1607 metres above sea level; the Mon Chasseral peak looms large above DT Swiss's headquarters in the Jura mountains and is the favourite testing ground for their finest high mountain equipment

Designed as a true wheelset for those seeking to test themselves amongst the clouds, the Mon Chasseral more than just a superlight 1250 gram climber's wheelset, with outstanding stiffness and braking performance they descend as well as they climb, after all what's the point of dropping your opponents before the summit if they're only going to reel you in on the descent?

Custom Swiss-Made carbon shelled hubs with 36 tooth ratchets have been developed especially to push DT's Spline technology to its limit and are the lightest hubs DT have ever made

28 mm deep full carbon rims are 16 mm wide internally (21 mm externally) and offer a blend of low weight, braking performance, stiffness and aerodynamic performance that is ideal for mountain riding but wouldn't be out of place on any road

The braking surface is infused with a heat resistant resin that gives braking performance far beyond even the stringent German DIN standard when used in conjunction with the supplied brake pads

SINC ceramic bearings come as standard, these are designed from the ground up to align perfectly with DT Swiss hubs and offer unparalleled smoothness with real world all conditions reliability

DT have specced a blend of their renowned Aerolite and Aero Comp spokes for the perfect balance of stiffness, comfort and low weight

For those looking to use the latest tyre tech the Mon Chasserals come tubeless ready but can also be used with standard clinchers
