Disk RHUB 170

The Disk RHUB 170 is a super wide cassette hub for use on fat-tire bikes with 170mm rear axle spacing.

We've partnered with Industry Nine to create a cassette hub that marries our hub shell, axle, and bearing adjustment system with their premium freehub bodies. Two freehubs are available, one for traditional Shimano and SRAM 10 speed cassettes, and one for SRAM's XD type 11 speed cassettes.

The drive mechanism has two sets of three pawls on a sixty tooth ratchet that provides 120 points of engagement at just 3°. What this translates to is a freehub that responds nearly instantaneously to rider input.

The splined freehub body is compatible with 9/10 speed cassettes from Shimano and SRAM, and we now offer Industry Nine's XX1 compatible freehub option. The disk mount conforms to the 6-Bolt ISO standard.

The large solid flanges provide a solid base for wheel builds with their large diameter and nearly symmetrical spacing.

An oversized aluminum quick-release axle supports the hub on three sealed bearings, along with a massive 40mm bearing supporting the freehub.

The Disk RHUB 170 features our simple bearing adjuster ring for hassle-free maintenance. The freehub is simple to disassemble for service, and can be converted to run on just three pawls instead of six for lower drag and less noise (but with a 6° engagement).
