How to choose the hub?

Choosing the right hub depends on your riding style, bike type, and performance needs. Focus on these 2 key factors:

1. Riding Type

Road / Gravel: Prioritize lightweight hubs with smooth rotation and efficient bearings.

Mountain / Enduro / Downhill: Choose strong, durable hubs with fast engagement (instant pickup) to handle rough terrain and immediate power transfer.

2. Hub Material & Bearings

Material:

Aluminum shell: Lightweight, performance-oriented.

Steel shell: Heavier but extremely durable – ideal for e-bikes and downhill.

Bearings:

Sealed cartridge bearings: Maintenance-free, consistent performance.
