FAQs
What is Boost spacing?
Boost spacing refers to a wider hub standard, typically 110mm for front hubs and 148mm for rear hubs, which allows for stronger wheel builds and improved tire clearance on modern mountain bikes.
Can I use 6-bolt disc rotors with this hub?
No, this hub is specifically designed for the Center-Lock disc brake rotor system. You will need Center-Lock compatible rotors.
How often should I service the bearings?
The sealed cartridge bearings are designed for longevity. Service is typically only needed if you notice roughness, play, or noise. Check the DT Swiss service documentation for specific intervals or guidelines based on riding conditions.
Can I convert this hub to a different axle standard?
The DT Swiss 350 hub is known for its ability to be converted to various standards by swapping the end caps. Refer to DT Swiss documentation for compatible end caps for your specific needs.
What is the weight of this hub?
While exact weights can vary slightly, the DT Swiss 350 hubs are recognized for their balance of durability and relatively low weight, making them a popular choice for performance-oriented builds.
What type of spokes are compatible?
This hub uses J-Bend spokes and has 32 spoke holes, which is a very common configuration for mountain bike and gravel wheel builds.
Troubleshooting
Hub feels stiff or rough
The bearings may require cleaning and lubrication. Follow the DT Swiss service guide for bearing maintenance. Ensure the thru-axle and any end caps are properly installed and tightened.
Brake rotor is noisy or rubbing
Verify the Center-Lock rotor lockring is securely tightened. Check that the rotor is not bent. Ensure the hub's Center-Lock interface is clean and free of debris.
Axle does not fit frame/fork
Confirm that your frame and fork use the Boost 110 x 15mm thru-axle standard. This hub is not compatible with non-Boost or different axle standards (e.g., QR, 12mm thru-axle).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
- Axle Standard: This hub is designed for Boost spacing, measuring 110mm in width, and uses a 15mm thru-axle. Ensure your bicycle frame and fork are compatible with these dimensions.
- Brake Mount: Features a Center-Lock disc brake mount. You will need Center-Lock compatible brake rotors.
- Spoke Interface: Utilizes J-Bend spokes. The hub has a drilling of 32 holes, suitable for most standard wheel builds.
Setup:
Installation involves inserting the 15mm thru-axle through the hub and into your fork dropouts. Secure the thru-axle according to your fork manufacturer's specifications. Mount the Center-Lock rotor by sliding it onto the splined interface and securing it with the lockring, ensuring it is tightened to the manufacturer's torque recommendation.
Care:
Regular cleaning of the exterior with a damp cloth is recommended. Periodically, inspect the seals for damage. While the bearings are sealed and low-maintenance, if you experience roughness or noise, consult the DT Swiss service manual for bearing service or replacement procedures, which can typically be performed with common bicycle tools.
