The 136g Chris King front cyclocros hub is the ultimate lightweight, high performance cyclocross hub. All Chris King hubs feature the legendary King stainless steel sealed bearings and are 100% manufactured in Portland, Oregon.
Chris King Cyclocross front hubs have a higher flange to address the intense demands of a cycloross race: an hour of intense mud, barriers, breakneck speed and fork-stuttering braking only to be followed by the cruel fate of a high-pressure hose for post race clean-up.
The cyclocross front hub is built on the strength of the Chris King Classic front hub. Chris King combines their smooth-rolling, long-lasting, well sealed and fully servicable bearings with a 19.5mm diameter axle which provides maximum steering rigidity and frame stiffness. The precision manufactured Chris King aluminum hubshells with equal size flanges build durable wheels by keeping the spoke lengths even and short. Pair these hubs with deep-dish carbon rims, for example, and you've got the perfect mix of rigidity, mud deflection, and all- out start line cool factor.
Chris King's RingDrive engagement mechanism keeps the power at full tilt so no matter if your remounts are smooth or rubber-legged hop- alongs, the first twitch into the pedals goes right to getting you closer to the line.
