Industry 9 Hydra2 Hubs:
Designed specifically for trail, enduro, and downhill riders with the strength to handle full-power ebikes, Hydra2 blends precision machining, US manufacturing, and the rider driven ethos you’ve come to expect from Industry Nine.
PRECISION EVOLVED I9 listened to your feedback from over 100,000 Hydra hubs ridden worldwide. Through relentless refinement Hydra2 emerges as the most versatile, high performance hub available today.
-
A 65% thicker axle that’s been redesigned to dissipate stress more effectively.
-
Larger 6903 bearings throughout, and a new labyrinth channel and full-contact radial lip seal to keep out elements that cause premature bearing wear.
-
A new, foolproof design to ensure consistent bearing preload, regardless of variations in axle tightness.
-
Larger, 5.5mm pawl pockets that distribute force 26% better, preventing deformation of the pockets over years of use.
-
Tougher metal for the drivering and an extra tooth on each pawl, guaranteeing Hydra2 can easily handle the torque of the most powerful ebike motors.
In our effort to make the Hydra2 hub bomb-proof, bullet-proof, and Brandon-proof, we didn’t compromise on meaningful performance gains, and the next generation has both quicker 0.41° engagement (870 POE) and 60% less coasting drag than its predecessor.
