Description
Get the Race Face Vault hub, offering super - fast engagement for custom wheel builds. It comes in both Boost and non - Boost configurations, with multiple axle standards and your choice of Shimano or XD cassette bodies. The oversized hub shell enhances torsional and lateral stiffness. The 6902 bearings, known for their large ball diameter and durability, are used. A 60 - tooth drive ring engages six double - tooth pawls, enabling 3° engagement for almost instant power transfer. The wide bearing placement reduces the load on bearings, extending their lifespan. Low - drag labyrinth seals protect the internals. You can swap endcaps without tools, making this hub not only fast but also adaptable. It's J - Bend spoke compatible. Available for XC, Trail, Enduro, and DH cycling. Options include Shimano or XD compatibility. Rear hub options are 12X148 BOOST, 12X150, 12X157, 12X142, 12X135, 10X135QR, and it weighs 305 grams at the rear.
Using the Race Face Vault hub is easy. First, choose the right axle standard and cassette body (Shimano or XD) for your bike. Then, you can start building your custom wheels. It's J - Bend spoke compatible, so make sure to use the appropriate spokes. When it comes to maintenance, keep the hub clean. You can use a mild cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe it down. Check the bearings regularly. The wide bearing placement is designed to reduce load, but if you notice any strange noises or reduced performance, it might be time to inspect them. Swapping the endcaps is tool - free, so you can do it whenever you need to adjust the hub. Also, remember that this hub is suitable for XC, Trail, Enduro, and DH cycling, but avoid using it in extremely harsh conditions that could damage the low - drag labyrinth seals protecting the internals.
