48 hole high flange shell
Hollow 3/8 inch alloy axle
Standard 100mm BMX width
Bolt options to suit

Description

The Profile High Flange front hub is the forerunner of Profile Racing's current Mini front hub. Both hubs use the same axle bolts, though not the same axle, and this one is suitable for trails, racing, street and park. It is drilled 48 hole and runs the standard BMX 100mm hub width.

The weight saving comes from the hollow 3/8 inch aluminium axle, available in bolt style or stud and nut style. Bolt choices for the 3/8 inch threaded axle are standard 3/8 socket head bolts with polished Volcano cones, a 17mm hex head outer with an 8mm internal hex, or a button head with an 8mm internal hex, in chromoly or titanium. The aluminium axle is not intended for use with pegs or for heavy street riding.

Features

48 hole high flange shell. The high flange shell is drilled 48 hole, so it laces up into a traditional heavy duty front wheel.
Hollow 3/8 inch alloy axle. The hollow aluminium axle is where the dramatic weight saving comes from, in bolt style or stud and nut style.
Standard 100mm BMX width. It drops into standard BMX forks without any extra hardware.
Bolt options to suit. Choose chromoly or titanium: socket head bolts with polished Volcano cones, 17mm hex head outers, or button heads, all with an 8mm internal hex.
Not for pegs. The 3/8 inch aluminium axle is not intended for pegs or heavy street riding, so keep this one for trails, race and park.
