max-t Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Nothing will ever come close to the reliabilty, durability and pickup of a King for trials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 sweet, each pawl has 3 teeth on, that will prevent slippage. im actually really interested in this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigjames Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 they dont have a uk distributor and you have to buy tehm as a wheel(set) which at about 1100euros for the dh/fr wheelset, they arent cheap. but my god do they look awesome. i want some, would look sooooo nice on the intense.shame they dont use standard spokes and sell the hubs seperately.....

Muel Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 That is so clever, each pawl has 3 EPs...Imagine a Try-All with that rachet and 9 of those pawls. I can't even begin to fathom how many engagement points it would have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zordon Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) That is so clever, each pawl has 3 EPs...Imagine a Try-All with that rachet and 9 of those pawls. I can't even begin to fathom how many engagement points it would have.The amount of EPs would be exactly the same. It would still engage 108 (with Try-all ratchet) or 120 (with Macmahone one) times per crank revolution. The only advantage of these "multi-pawls" is that the force is better distributed over the ratchet teeths so their wear rate is considerably lower. And probably also pawls last longer due to its size. Edited March 2, 2008 by zordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Anyone heard anymore information on the industry nine hubs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason222 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 I remember there being a thread on trials-online forum where someone tested a indy 9 wheel vs chris king wheel. If my memory serves me correct, he could gap about 7-9 inches further with the indy 9 hub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psycholist Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 I'm currently running a Supperleggera on the back of my Giant Trance and it's phenomenally good. Instant pickup (Very slightly quicker than a King as the King has a little less backlash, but also less engagement points). The hub feels really solid and the bearings are extremely smooth and totally play free. I've only put a few hundred miles on it so far, but it's giving every indication of being a brilliant XC hub. If it runs for the next year or two and the ratchet pawls remain deformation free, I'll consider trying it on the trials bike. It's also pleasingly loud - like being chased by beeeees...

JonMack Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Knowing what people on here are like with stripping threads I wouldn't advise it either, but the idea seems sound in theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 They're not distributed to england, which sucks.=/Good old pro II it is then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 They're not distributed to england, which sucks.=/Good old pro II it is then!You don't need it. go to superstarcomponents.com and get the Superleggera 120 click hub. or contact Halo on their latest 120 click super DJ hub. When this topic was talked about last year, there where at least 5 bike companies in the process of developing, or bringing out a 120 click hub. so far two are availiable here in the uk.

psycholist Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 The Halo and Superleggera are exactly the same hub. You'll pay 10 or £20 more for the one with Halo written on it and you don't get a QR skewer with the Halo AFAIK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy P Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Are we still chasing engagement points? In my mind, there is only one winner - and I use it.Andy P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
