DT Swiss Star Ratchet Upgrades
Most DT Swiss models (350/240 hubs) use the unique DT Swiss star ratchet design. This design is two interlocking ratchets inside the hub machined with teeth (hub engagement) that interlock when you pedal. Since the hub engagement is based off these ratchets, this means you can upgrade a lower engaging hub to a quicker engaging system. DT Swiss offers the star ratchet system in multiple configurations up to the DT Swiss 54 tooth ratchet upgrade. Your hub must be a star ratchet design to make this work, please keep in mind that certain OE spec hubs (DT Swiss 370s) use the more traditional pawl design and do not apply here.
