Pro 5 DH 6-Bolt 148mm Rear Hub
Building from the Standard Pro5 Hubs now comes a DH-specific hub designed around a 7-speed cassette. The 148 or 150/157 DH hub has wider flange spacing than the standard PRO 5 150/157 hub for 10/11/12-speed cassettes, further increasing the machined aluminum hub shell's strength and stiffness. Hope says the wider spoke bracing angle combined with equal spoke tension on a symmetric rim makes the complete wheel as strong as possible.
Unlike the most of the PRO 5 range, the DH version offers only 54 POEs, owing to the fact that all 6 pawls engage the 54T ratchet simultaneously. This is also true of the eBike-specific PRO 5 hubs, a step taken to improve durability in that higher torque application.
The hub takes a 6-bolt disc only, and there are 32 spoke holes.
Specs:
- 32 Hole
- 6 bolt disc fitment
- 148x12mm
- Shimano HG Steel or Sram XD Steel freehub options
Key Features:
- Improved sealing to stop dirt ingress and to reduce drag
- New Labyrinth seal has zero drag for incredible freewheeling performance
- New Pawls/Springs design to increase longevity, load capacity & a reduction of drag.
- Increased engagement from 44 to 54 POE
- New step down axle design for a stiffer more durable freehub
- New hub body profile for increased stiffness without adding weight
- Fully serviceable and rebuildable with simple tools
- Available with all modern freehub bodies
- End spacers can be easily swapped to suit different frame and axle standards
