Big news for Chris King fans: thanks to their new Gen 4 system, maintenance will be easier and driveshell swaps will be much cheaper!
Click to email a link to a friend Chris King has always been about making the most precise components – it’s right there in the name. Their hubs are works of art, with their patented RingDrive system buzzing away as you coast. But that RingDrive precision came at a cost, namely a more complex service procedure and costly driveshell replacements.. Moving from that to a twin-bearing system reduced drag by more than 20% and made for a system that was lighter and easier to manufacture.
For Gen 4 we undertook a holistic development process for each of the three hub products Boost CenterLock/6-Bolt, R45D, and R45, collapsing the specs into a design that allows for a universal axle and internal parts. In previous generations, we chased specs that led us to different bearing sizes, etc.
At the time of writing, prices for new Gen 4 hubs weren’t available, though we know that driveshell conversion kits for new hubs should run $80 since you only need to change out the driveshell.
Gen 4 R45D hubs utilize an updated adjusting clamp that allows for disc removal without the need to remove the adjusting clamp.Clothing-Gear-ToolsBravur La Corsa Rosa IV… Do You Want a $2500 Grand Tour-Inspired Swedish Watch?
