Sometimes you ask us why we donīt post any info about parts that we are working on. You see them on the guys bikes so you ask info about them. I appreciate so much your interest but the reason why we donīt post anything here is because they are so far to be available so we donīt want to confuse you. But I realized that I owe you guys some info to appreciate that interest and support so iīm going to start showing you some of these projects. we canīt give too much details though. they are still on the prototype stages and things may change.
Here are the first one. The cassette and new front hub. Since Ruben has been using the first prototype for a while, many of you have been asking. That prototype works fine ( he is still riding it) but weīve been improving it in simplicity and weight over the last months. the reasons why they are taking so long to be available are mainly two. One because every single part on those hubs are made and designed by us from scratch and two because we want it to be a very reliable item. You know thatīs not easy on cassette hubs and that takes a long time of testing.
All we can show you now is the look and the axle system with the integrated cone. Similar to the cranks system. You just have to slide the axle and put the other cone with your hand. No threads or anything. Weīll keep you posted about more details about them.
