Product Spotlight: The Alienation Thrust Hub

by bmxultra.com

You may have read our product review on the prototype Alienation Thrust hub.

We loved it because of it’s low drag, smooth ride and the flexibility to convert the hub from 15mm thru axle to 3/8″ to 14″.

Well now it’s finally available.

Check it out.

This particular internal system assures 3 pawls engage while the other series of 3 pawls wait to engage. Drag has been reduced with fewer engagement points. Pawl life expectancy is also increased.

  • 6 Pawls
  • 45 Engagement Points
  • 4 Degrees of Engagement

The Thrust hub utilizes a massive thrust bearing that permits rotation between the shell & the cog carrier/driver while supporting axial load, which makes for a dreamy smooth rotation. For the most part the entire series of Thrust hubs can be disassembled mostly without tools, allowing for easy access to maintain the hub(s). Guards press-on. Oversized bearings throughout.

Available in:

  • 14 mm RHD 9t rear w/extended axle
  • 15 mm thru axle rear w/16t cog (Shimano lock-ring system)
  • 3/8″ bolt-on rear w/16t cog (Shimano lock-ring system)
  • 3/8″ bolt-on front

Press-on Hub Guards for easy install available for front and rear Thrust Hub(s)
