Product Story

We machine these hubs from three inch round bars of 6061 aluminum. The hub shells are put through four different machining processes before they go to finishing. The end result is something we’re very proud of. The wide flanges have six window cutouts in them to save weight and draw on the influence of classic track hubs.

The axle is ground from 7075 aluminum, which has a great strength to weight ratio. The outer lock nut faces are made of knurled steel for a solid grip against dropouts. Two different axles are available, for a bolt-on or quick-release attachment. Service Parts are available to convert between axle types.

High Flange Front comes with Enduro sealed bearings, and they can be adjusted with our simple adjuster ring.

Spoke hole counts are available in 20, 24, 28, 32, and 36, and the spoke holes are chamfered to reduce stress on the head and elbow of the spoke.

Should we bring back #FixtureFriday ? Before you c Should we bring back #FixtureFriday ? Before you can make all the parts, you have to make all the fixtures, and these aren’t something you can buy off a shelf! All of our production and assembly fixtures are one-offs made by Paul or Patrick or Jacob in the manual machine shop (although Jacob just made our first ever 3D printed fixtures, but that’s a story for a different Friday 😉). 
  This fixture is for pressing the little sealed cartridge-bearings into our Canti and Love levers. Once mounted in an arbor press, a little magnet holds the bearing until you press-fit it into the lever blade with a pull on the arbor press. In theory these bearings could be replaced down the line, but we haven’t had to do it yet. Thank you for attending our Ted Talk, happy Friday! ✌️

Sure, you might see us goofing off and getting weird at bike events, but when we get back to work in the machine shop, we take our work VERY serious!
