Degrees of freedom
An anti-pedal kickback system simplified to the max
Easily adjustable, low maintenance and adding no weight, the new DF technology offers additional degrees of freedom in tuning the riding characteristics of your bike. By allowing the freehub to rotate a specific range before engaging, the influence of the chain on the rear suspension is reduced, allowing the suspension to work freely. The system gives you the freedom to find the right setup for different types of terrain or bikes without using any tools. And if your goal is to optimize your bike kinematics, you have another degree of freedom.
*Degrees of freedom: the number of values that have the freedom to vary in the final result of a statistical calculation.
Compatible with every DT SWISS Ratchet DEG hub.
The new DF technology is an anti-pedal kickback device simplified to the max. Retrofittable to all Ratchet DEG freehub systems and lighter than other solutions, just replace the hubs threaded ring and the two ratchets to enjoy three different degrees of freehub movement: 0°, 10° and 20°.
eMTB version
The new DF technology will be available soon for eMTB. Due to the higher torques in this specific field of use, the degrees of freehub movement are 0° or 10°. The technology will be available in Ratchet DEG Hybrid hubs featuring ratchets with 60 teeth.
