Red Bolt-On Single Speed Rear Bike Hub – High-Strength Aluminum Axle for Track, Single Speed, and BMX

This Red Bolt-On Single Speed Rear Bike Hub is a visually striking and structurally sound component for a variety of demanding cycling applications. The hub body is crafted from robust aluminum alloy and finished in a vibrant, durable metallic red anodization with clean silver accents, providing an instant aesthetic upgrade to any bicycle.

The core strength comes from its solid threaded axle and bolt-on mounting design, offering superior security and strength compared to quick-release skewers. This makes it particularly excellent for track cycling, heavy-duty commuting, and BMX riding where resisting wheel slip and managing high loads is essential. It features a threaded body for the easy installation of a standard single speed freewheel or cog and large flanges that contribute to a stiffer, stronger wheel build.

Key Benefits

• High Security Bolt-On: Solid threaded axle and nuts provide superior security and resistance to wheel slip during hard riding or braking.

• Durable Aluminum Body: Lightweight yet robust construction in a vibrant metallic red anodized finish.

• Single Speed Ready: Features a threaded body for easy installation of a standard freewheel or single speed cog.

• Strong Wheel Build: Large diameter flanges allow for shorter spokes, creating a stiffer, more durable wheel.

Application Instructions

• Wheel Build: Lace spokes to the flanges and tension the wheel appropriately for the rim size.

• Cog Installation: Thread the single speed freewheel or cog onto the threaded side of the hub body.

• Mounting: Ensure proper spacers/washers are on the axle. Insert the axle into the dropouts and tighten the axle nuts securely with a wrench.

• Alignment: Check the wheel is centered and spins freely after installation.

Pro Tips

• Always apply grease or anti-seize compound to the axle threads before installing the axle nuts to prevent seizing.

• Use a high-quality chain tensioner if needed to maintain correct chain tension on horizontal dropouts.

• For fixed gear riding, ensure a locking ring is used (not included) alongside the cog for safety.

• When replacing, measure the axle length and dropout spacing (Over Locknut Dimension) to ensure proper frame fit.
