Why We Make This Chris, our founder and spiritual guide, the King himself, is really, in his heart of hearts, a mountain biker. We make this hub because it’s spiritually imperative that we do so, to honor the dirt that has given us so much inspiration, and to keep Chris happy. Why You Want It Our Boost Centerlock front hubs use one-piece axles to provide a stiff hub with rail-accurate steering. To keep mud and water out of the works, they have heavy-duty bearing seals and snaprings that provide superior protection with ultra-low drag. Each one is like a rolling dream of trail riding performance. Our bearings, both steel and ceramic, have heat-treated, surgical-grade steel races that are machined simultaneously to ensure perfect matching. The quality and speed of our bearings is what you will feel (and hear) on every ride. As Chris King bearing tracks burnish, they actually get faster. A little bit of regular love (i.e., service) will keep this hub rolling for years upon years of demanding use.
