Beskrivning

WHEELS DUKE LUCKY STAR HD / HOPE PRO5

The Lucky Star HD 6TERS are aluminium rims designed for all types of XC, XC racing andtrail riding. The front/rear widths are differentiated: 28mm/26mm or 30mm/28mmdepending on the tyre section.

They are characterised by good lateral stiffness and very good strength at a low weight, thanks in part to the use of Dynamal aluminium. The rims feature a new, modern, lower geometry with an asymmetrical profile and hookless walls. The rim holes are off-centre(offset), which makes it possible to close the spoke umbrella more tightly. This makes the rim more stable and increases the lateral stiffness of the wheel. The spoke tensions between the two plies are more balanced, which guarantees a better durability of the wheel. The hookless rim walls allow for both rim reinforcement and weight reduction.

HOPE PRO 5

Building on Hope’s 30+ years of manufacturing hubs, the Pro 5 proved to be one of the most reliable and versatile hubs on the market offering the right balance between speed of pick-up, load capacity, durability and drag.
One of the key design objectives for the Pro 5 was the reduction of drag in the drive mechanism. This has real world riding benefits and was achieved by upgrading the sealing with a new zero drag labyrinth seal, and an improved ratchet and pawl system, with new springs. Both greatly reduce drag as well as increase durability and load capacity.
Another big advantage comes in the Points of Engagement (POE 108) using an offset 6 pawl freehub design, where 3 pawls are engaged at any time. This achieves the right balance between speed of pick-up, load capacity, drag & durability, and in real-world terms gives a speedy feel on the trail whilst keeping crank movement to an acceptable level without compromising the free running of the hub or its reliability.
Externally the shell takes a new profile to add stiffness without adding weight whilst housing a new axle design enabling the use of bigger bearings in a better arrangement to fit the latest freehub standards whilst increasing load capacity.
As with every product made at Hope durability and longevity are key. Everything about the Pro 5 has been considered, and tested to work in the worst conditions possible from seals to bearings….And eventually if something does wear out the Pro 5 is fully serviceable and rebuildable with simple tools, or if you need to change drivetrain standards one hub works with everything. So swapping freehubs is easily done, and changing end caps to suit different frame and fork axle standards future proofing your wheels.
Completely new for the Pro 5 is the option of Centrelock disc fitting and an e-bike specific hub that comes with a freehub tailor made for the stresses and strains of e-bike use.
