DT Swiss RWS Plug-In Thru Axle BOOST 12x148mm w/Aluminium Lever - Syntace X-12

Brand:Dt Swiss

Code:WHDT028

The DT Swiss RWS Plug-In system is designed to offer a clean, lightweight and highly secure thru axle solution for BOOST 12 × 148 mm rear hubs using the Syntace X-12 standard. The innovative Plug-In design allows the aluminium RWS lever to be easily removed once the axle is tightened, leaving a streamlined, aerodynamic appearance that is less likely to snag on trails or transport.

When fitted, the lever is held securely in place by an integrated locking mechanism, allowing riders to choose whether to ride with the lever installed or removed. If the lever is not available, the axle can still be installed or removed using a standard 5 mm Allen key, offering maximum practicality.

The lever position can be adjusted easily by pulling it away from the axle and repositioning it so it sits neatly against the bike. The RWS system delivers up to 50% more clamping force than conventional quick-release systems, while remaining fully compatible with disc brake setups. The clamping force is not affected by heat build-up, ensuring consistent performance in demanding riding conditions.

Constructed with an aluminium lever and no plastic or synthetic components in the force flow, this axle is built for durability, safety and precise operation.
