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.
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.
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.
