Stan’s ZTR hubs – taking pre-orders
I’m a big fan of the Stan’s mountain bike rims – they are very stiff and durable and amazingly light for their strength.
Stan’s announced earlier in the year that they would be making their own hubs and they’re due to land here in NZ by the end of September.
The hubs look to offer great value for money – the weight is very low and prices are great. The hubs run on large bearings; the quick release / QR15 front uses two massive 6902 (15x28x7mm), the Heavy Duty uses two 6904 (20x37x9mm) and the rear uses four 6802 (15x24x5mm) which should mean long bearing life and low maintenance. The hubs accept 6-bolt disc rotors and the QR versions include the quick release.
These hubs will build into versatile wheels using either a rim from the Stan’s range or another brand. Please drop me a line if you’d like to discuss options.
