The D Light is a super-strong and exceptionally light butted spoke for a variety of purposes, especially mountain bikes with disc brakes. Sapim butted spokes have two major benefits: they are lighter and stronger than plain gauge spokes! Technological advances using cold forging (SAPIM Forging Technology) ‘stretch’ the spoke, retaining the linear molecular structure of the material and thereby increasing the spoke strength at the middle section by at least 48%.
