THE HUBS
100% DEX-LCM™ Boron/Carbon Advanced Composite Laminate high-flange hubs are smoothly integrated into the NACA 0029 profile spokes for outstanding aerodynamic performance and stiffness. Precision machined and outfitted with oversized all-weather 24mm cartridge bearings these hubs require no adjustment or service. Shimano or Campagnolo compatible with a high-modulus over-sized 15mm diameter toughened Boron/Carbon Advanced Composite axle both front and rear. “3 Flange System” - The two outer flanges create superior lateral stiffness while the center flange and Quad-drive™ spokes which are located in the same plane as the rim directly transfer power. This eliminates the need for off-center rim designs and uneven spoke-tension due to wheel dish. This eliminates flex from traditional non-linear load paths of traditional tensioned steel spokes. The Quad-drive™ spokes are based upon the same super-low drag NACA 0029 airfoil of the radial spokes. They are 25% oversized and they are rated at double the tension and compression strength of the radial spokes. The result is a rock solid feel and power transfer similar to a solid disk wheel at a fraction of the weight without sacrificing the responsive, comfortable ride quality of a traditionally spoked wheel. |
