The DT Swiss Ratchet DEG DF Upgrade Kit is designed for mountain bikers who want to fine-tune drivetrain response and overall ride feel in more detail. Using Degrees of Freedom technology, the kit allows the freehub system to be adjusted to better manage the effect of pedal kickback. It offers three selectable engagement angles: 0°, 10° and 20°.

This kit is only compatible with MTB Ratchet DEG freehub systems featuring 90 or 72 teeth. That makes it a dedicated performance upgrade for specific DT Swiss-compatible hub systems rather than a universal ratchet conversion. According to the product description, it also delivers a lower system weight than comparable solutions.

The package includes all key parts needed for the upgrade, plus the required tooling and 20 g of special grease, making it a practical all-in-one solution for workshop service or performance-focused setup changes.
