The longer axles allow for the rear hub to be re-spaced to fit up to 130mm frames and/or for pegs to be fitted.

The BLB Front King hub (black) is adding another level to our already super strong range of high quality affordable fixed gear hubs.

These low flange beauties have CNC’d aluminium shells and lock nuts as well as long life Japanese bearings.

Based on BMX designs the BLB King Hubs are strong as ox, but nowhere near as heavy. Mean enough for freestyle and elegant and light enough for fast bike rides in the country; there’s little the King hub won’t do.

The king hub gives you the super tough and desirable female bolt system at a never before seen price.

The Disk FHUB features a six bolt ISO mount for disc brake rotors with front disc spacing. The flanges have been increased in diameter make room for the disc mount and keep the hub balanced.

It spins very smoothly due to specially machined bearing bores and high quality precision sealed cartridge bearings. The axle is turned from high-strength 7075 aluminium, and is available in bolt-on and quick-release versions.

The Quick-Release FHUB is very light weight; this makes it easy to remove a front wheel when fixing a flat or mounting your bike to a roof rack.

Disk FHUBS with bolt-on axles provide greater theft resistance and give a stiffer connection to the fork.

The Tru Axle Disc Fhub was created as a boon for disc brake users.

Using bearings that are a tad larger than most thru axle hubs, allows them to last and endure any mountain pounding punishment a rider can dish out. They roll on a precision tuned super high strength 7075 axle.

The Paul Components Track Front Hub (black) is a front hub with large diameter flanges that perfectly matches Paul Components High Flange Rear track hub.

Paul Components machine these hubs from three inch round bars of 6061 aluminium. The hub shells are put through four different machining processes before they go to finishing. The end result is something to be proud of. The wide flanges have six window cutouts in them to save weight and draw on the influence of classic track hubs.

The axle is ground from 7075 aluminium, which has a great strength to weight ratio. The outer lock nut faces are made of knurled steel for a solid grip against dropouts. Quick-release conversion kit available for special order.

Paul Components High Flange hubs use high-fill sealed bearings. Spoke holes are chamfered to reduce stress on the head and elbow of the spoke.

The Paul Components High Flange Rear (black) is a single speed hub with large diameter flanges.

Paul Components machine these hubs from three inch round bars of 6061 aluminium. The hub shells are put through four different machining processes before they go to finishing. The end result is something to be proud of. The wide flanges have six window cutouts in them to save weight and draw on the influence of classic track hubs.

The hub shells are available with dedicated fixed gear threading on one side only, or in a flip-flop version with fixed threading on one side and freewheel threading on the other. Proper left-handed lock ring threading keeps fixed gear cogs secure, and heavy-duty stainless steel lock ring is included.

The hub that started all that single speed mountain bike silliness. The Wacky One-speed Rear Device.

When Paul Components first introduced Wacky One-Speed Rear Device (W.O.R.D.), it was the first purpose-built single speed mountain bike hub. That original hub not only set design standards that continue to this day, like a 52mm fixed gear chainline.

When designing this modern version of the WORD, they spread the flanges out as far as possible while leaving room for freewheel threading. This allows the WORD to be built up as a strong dishless wheel. Over the years they’ve also improved upon the original axle and bearing adjustment mechanism.

The WORD comes with special machined axle bolts. The washers are made of brass and have deeply knurled contact faces. This ensures they’ll grip onto dropout faces without marring the frame, yet will still be able to be loosened easily trail side.

The WORD can be easily adjusted with cinch bolt style adjuster ring. Spoke holes are chamfered and the flanges are canted towards the rim to reduce stress on the head and elbow of the spoke.

The Paul Components Word Disc Thru Axle Rear Hub (black) is the first single-speed specific MTB hub ever produced by Paul Components back in 1996. “W.O.R.D.” stood for Wacky One Speed Rear Device, because at a time when most riders had just upgraded from 7 to 8 speeds, the idea of stripping all the derailleurs off of your bike to make a super simple, reliable, harder-to-ride bike seemed like a pretty stubborn and a little crazy idea. Since then it has become a cult classic.

Yes, this hub spins very smoothly due to extremely high tolerance machined bearing bores, high quality user-adjustable sealed cartridge bearings, and a hub shell design that has been refined over years of production and real world abuse to be as light as possible while still withstanding the abuse that the biggest, most reckless riders can put it through.

One of the best things about the latest iteration might be the super-stiff, super-light, flex-free, interchangeable 7075 Alloy axle. In the future, if you switch frames or get a new bike, you can easily change out the existing axle for whichever style of attachment fits your new dropouts.

The Disk WORD hub has freewheel threading on the drive side for standard BMX style freewheels, and a 6 bolt ISO rotor mount. The flanges are canted towards the rim reducing spoke stress and the spoke holes are chamfered to reduce stress on the head and elbow of the spoke.

Paul Components saw a need for high quality 135mm Bolt-On fixed gear hubs, and with their long history and experience making single speed and fixed gear hubs, they knew how to do it right. The Paul Components Word Fixed/Free Hubs are machined 100 percent in-house by Paul in Chico, California. They’re absolutely bomb-proof, very light, easily adjustable, serviceable, and come with our own extra thick stainless steel lockring.
