DT Swiss Aerolite Spoke - 2.0mm, Bladed, 280mm, J-Bend, Black, Each

The DT Swiss Aerolite Spoke - 2.0mm, Bladed, 280mm, J-Bend, Black, Each is DT Swiss's lightest and most aerodynamic flat (bladed) spoke, engineered for high-performance road, aero, and racing wheels where every watt and gram counts—ideal for custom builds, wheel upgrades, or replacing spokes on deep-section or lightweight rims.

Crafted from high-strength steel via cold forging, the spoke starts as double-butted (2.0/0.9/2.0mm) for reduced weight in the center section, then is bladed to a flat 2.3mm-wide profile that boosts aerodynamics and torsional stability while maintaining exceptional durability. This process enhances material strength and creates a sleek, low-drag shape that helps save watts at speed. At just around 4.5g per 280mm spoke (based on similar lengths like 4.3–4.51g at 264–280mm), it minimizes rotational mass for quicker acceleration and smoother rolling. The classic J-bend design fits standard hub flanges (no hub slotting required), and the black finish provides corrosion resistance and a premium look. Nipples are sold separately.
