I'm fitting a DT Swiss wheel on my bike, the H1700 version. Should I shell out for a set of torque caps, or don't they make much difference?
Are the ones on the stock Roval wheels which come with unbranded DT Swiss hubs compatible?
if you remove your wheel a lot they make refitting it "slightly" easier,
If you're looking for stiffness fit a dual crown fork with a 20mm axle. torque caps make zero discernable difference while riding
I hav 2x 170mm Lyriks. both came without torque caps. I fitted them to both front wheels (1xHope, 1x DT) But only as I didn't have to pay anywhere near full price for either.
