Our new ISO 150 Disc rear hub brings the time-tested reliability and
performance of Chris King hubs to downhill and heavy-duty freeride bikes
featuring 150mm x 12mm thru axle rear dropouts. These big bikes get into some
serious situations but it's no concern for the ISO 150 Disc hub. This isn't
a "new" hub, it's another great hub from King. Same performance. Same
durability. Same expectations.
The responsibly light 336-gram hub spins an aluminum hubshell on our proven
19.5mm one-piece constant diameter axle (through the bearings to the
dropouts). Our patented RingDrive engagement mechanism has 72 points of
contact ensuring nearly instant power transfer while ratcheting through rock
gardens, setting up for a drop-off, or pinning the final run-out towards the
line. RingDrive is also responsible for that famous King buzz. Who knows,
maybe you can take off your bear bell now.*
As with all Chris King hubs, the ISO 150 is completely user serviceable.
Bearing preload can be adjusted without removing the wheel using a 2.5 hex-
head wrench to fine-tune the adjusting clamp on the non-drive side. Thorough
service can be performed on the hub bearings using a 2.5 hex-head wrench and
penknife while our Hub Service Tool allows for full hub and driveshell
disassembly and reassembly.
King hubs have a reputation for durability and just because this hub takes on
severe conditions doesn't move us from our 5-year hub warranty.
All of our rear hubs utilize our patented RingDrive™ engagement mechanism.
RingDrive™ uses 72 engagement teeth on each drive ring. That means the hub
engages over 3 times quicker than the standard 24 tooth pawl-type freehub.
Trying to get started again in the middle of a steep uphill section? Going for
the surprise jump to drop your buddies? This unique design offers instant and
positive engagement that's capable of handling a torque load of over
800ft/lbs, or over three times more than most other high end hubs we've
tested. It is the heart of our hub and all the rest is built around it.
