Available for sale
WHY WE'RE BUILDING THIS
Chris, our founder and spiritual guide—the King himself—is a mountain biker through and through. We're building this hub because it feels right: out of respect for the dirt that has given us so much, and to keep Chris happy.
WHY YOU WANT HER
Our Boost Centerlock 148x12 rear hubs utilize one-piece solid axles for a stiff platform that lets your suspension work better and puts every watt directly into the trail. To keep mud and water out, they're equipped with rugged bearing seals and retaining rings that provide superior protection with ultra-low rolling resistance. Every hub is like a rolling trail dream. Our bearings—steel or ceramic—have heat-treated, surgically precision races that are machined simultaneously to ensure the inner and outer races mesh perfectly. You'll feel (and hear) the quality and speed of our bearings on every ride. As Chris King races break in, they actually get faster. A little regular attention (i.e., servicing) will keep this hub running smoothly for years under the toughest conditions. The patented Chris King RingDrive with 72 simultaneous engagement points puts your power to the ground quickly, offering unparalleled engagement and delivering the legendary Chris King "angry bee" sound. All Chris King rear hubs deliver that characteristic angry-bee sound.
