Alloy rims are susceptible to valve hole corrosion under certain conditions.
This can completely erode the metal and cause air pressure loss and ultimately complete rim failure.

Your hubs are the heart of your wheels.
They need to handle forces from acceleration, braking and constant jarring and impact during every moment of riding.

Your hubs are the single component on your bike that needs to work flawlessly - all the time.

Introducing the mountain bike hub range.

The straighpull versions feature 28 spoke holes, and are available in centerlock or 6-bolt configuration.

The 6-bolt versions are 32-spoke, and also available in centerlock or 6-bolt.

All of the hubs use the trusted and proven star-ratchet freehub mechanism (made famous by DT Swiss) for reliable and worry-free operation, and easy, tool-free maintenance.

The hubs are available with your choice of freehub - Shimano 10/11 speed HG, Shimano 12-speed Microspline or SRAM xD driver.

Endō is a Japanese philosophy which means "the far journey" because your wheels should last.

Nagare (the mountain bike line) means "Flow of the trail" because when you're riding you should only be immersed in the experience.
