Surly Ultra New Rear Hub - QR 10/10x135mm Bolt On - 32 Hole - Fixed/Free

High-quality flip flop MTB rear wheel hub (135 mm OLD). One side with thread for fixed gear and one for freewheel use.

Ultra New hubs are made of 6061-T6 forged and machined aluminum alloy with medium-height flanges. What's Ultra New about these hubs are their guts.

Ultra New hubs use hollow axles of Surly own design mated to thread-in wheel fixing bolts, as opposed to the nutted axles of previous hubs. Hollow axles make conversion to quick release super easy (remove bolts, insert QR skewer, install wheel into frame or fork, ride). All Ultra New hubs come with fixing bolts, but all are QR compatible without axle conversion or any other extra crap. The axles are made of CroMoly steel, while the fixing bolts are 10.9 stainless steel (i.e. high grade) for corrosion resistance, high strength, and good looks, and the bolts tighten and loosen with a 6mm hex wrench.

Bolt caps and 'cone' nuts are also stainless steel, and are heavily knurled for good bite, reducing the chance for your wheel to slip in the frame under high load. The cones and dust caps interlock to maintain axle stiffness. Ultra New hubs spin on non-adjustable 6901 model bearings. Throw your wheel on the bike, tighten the bolts and ride.
