WHY WE MADE IT

Our mission is to create the best hubs on the market, and 100 mm x 12 mm front hubs are THE reference for disc brake road bikes and gravel bikes. We have therefore put all our heart and energy, not to mention considerable engineering work, into the design of this hub. We are proud of it.

WHY YOU WANT IT

We've said it before, but everyone says it. Our R45 Centerlock™ hubs combine a lightweight hub shell with our legendary bearings, made in our workshops. The result: smoother rolling, increased longevity and an unmatched design.

The rigidity of our one-piece axle guarantees exceptional steering precision. This hub is also available in a wide range of on-trend colours.

Our bearings, in steel and ceramic, feature thermally treated surgical steel races machined simultaneously for a perfect fit. The quality and speed of our Chris King bearings will be felt (and heard) on every ride. The more Chris King bearing races are worn in, the faster they become. Regular maintenance will allow you to enjoy this hub for many years, even with intensive use.
