Jungle Products has taken on exclusive UK distribution of the Chub hub range from The Hive.
Chub hubs feature a unique oversized carbon centre hub body, combined with huge aluminium flanges that reduce wind up in the hub shell as well as reducing peak spoke tension on the drive side by up to 70 per cent.
It also has the advantage of creating a very lightweight, yet super rigid structure that increases torsional stiffness and fatigue life. Hubs come with 6Al/4V titanium hardware, and 15mm rear bolt through axles.
Chub hubs are currently available in both 24h and 32h track (120 and 130mm rear spacing) and 32h MTB singlespeed pairs, the latter with ISO six-bolt disc mounts.
Weights are 426g per pair (track) and 434g per pair (MTB).
Retail prices are as follows:
Track front £74.99
Track rear £165.99
MTB Disc front £124.99
MTB SS Disc rear £165.99
Products in the pipeline include 15mm and 20mm bolt through front hubs.
