Velotechnic DS-1 & DS-1D hubs are designed around the attributes of Strength, Stiffness, Stability and Smoothness to give the best riding experiences while being affordable. Designed & engineered in Singapore, they are created with our own exclusive molds and manufactured in Taiwan.
he DS1 front hub has a strong 15mm diameter hardened axle while the DS-1D has a massive 17mm diameter thru’axle , eliminating flex. The distances & the P.C.D. of the flanges provide wide bracing spoke angles for lateral wheel stiffness and stability. Precise hub adjustment is easily achieved with the pre-load threaded collar to optimise bearing stiffness. Lastly, the DS front hub shell is thicker for added strength and stiffness.
The rear hub takes the brunt of the load so we have designed it to easily handle heavyweight riders, high torque, and different huge forces, both laterally & radially. Many “weight weenie” hubs lack the properties of our hubs, which possess the key performance properties of Strength, Stability, Stiffness & Smoothness.
Titanium Hybrid Freehub - enhances the strength at the pawls' area for additional durablity. Choose this option if you weighs over 88kg (194 lbs ) or if you are a high watts rider.
