Marleen Hand Built Wheels - DT Swiss EX511/350 29"

MARLEEN HAND BUILT WHEELS - DT SWISS EX511/350 29”

Marleen Hand Built Wheels are anything but ‘off the shelf’. How? We have been hand-selecting quality components to bring New Zealanders a better riding experience for over 50 years, so it made sense to deliver that same level of care through our Hand Built range of wheels. 

Using the finest from our brands and hand built in our workshop by DT Swiss trained and approved master wheel builder - Sam P. - these wheels have been crafted to the highest standards and factory specifications possible. For the discerning rider who values bespoke, custom products that perform - Marleen Hand Built wheels are for you.

We utilise DT Swiss Competition double butted spokes for all of our in-stock builds, DT Swiss Pro lock Brass nipples and 6 bolt DT Swiss 350 hubs built into the rim of your choice. For the perfect balance of durability and performance for NZ terrain. 

This particular build is the absolute go-to wheelset for any Trail, All Mountain or Enduro bike. The EX511 rim is legendary for its durability while still being light enough for all day back country adventures. Combine this with the DT Swiss 350 Ratchet hub and you have an aluminum wheelset built to last, as well as perform at the highest level. 

If you are interested in a custom build with any of our rims, hubs and other components, feel free to give us a call and talk to us about your requirements.
