NEWMEN rear wheel hub Road FADE R Straightpull Center Lock | 12x142 mm thru axle | SRAM XDR
The FADE R rear hubs will once again find many fans. Anyone looking for a lightweight yet durable wheel center will find them hard to ignore.
Newmen's many years of experience can already be seen in the external appearance. The very elaborate and filigree workmanship inspires a great deal of confidence. Thanks to the clean anodization, the hub withstands even the most adverse weather conditions and retains its beauty even after many kilometers. In addition, the slim design ensures very good aerodynamics without sacrificing stiffness or steering precision.
Of course, the inner values will also convince you: only high-quality, double-sealed industrial bearings with a special lubricant are used. This special grease offers a 25 % higher water absorption capacity, which protects the bearings from premature wear and corrosion. It also ensures that the bearings run smoothly. Of course, you don't need to worry about adjusting the axial bearing play on the FADE R either. The bearings are already tension-free and precisely pressed in at the factory, so you can spend the time you save on your favorite trail.
Safety has not been spared either, with reinforcements at critical points such as at the transition between the brake disc and spoke mounts, even allow approval for E-Road and E-Gravel bikes, while non-critical areas require less material, thus saving weight.
The freehub has also been adapted to the ever-increasing torques. It has a significantly larger diameter and can therefore distribute the load better. Newmen continues to rely on 3 pawls, which engage in 36 ratchets. The pawls are very wide and have a specially shaped tooth profile, which generates a pleasant and restrained noise and ensures gentle power transmission.
All Newmen hubs are developed and produced in Germany. This allows the manufacturing process to be optimized at all times and guarantees consistently high quality.
