Today, Industry Nine introduced a fresh new hub and wheelset lineup aimed at XC racers and trail riders looking for high-performance wheelsets. The Industry Nine SOLiX M uses a completely new hub drive system that’s optimized for efficiency and weight savings.

Industry Nine SOLiX M Hubs

At the heart of the launch are the new SOLiX hubs with a continuously phased five-pawl freehub seamlessly integrating with a 121-tooth drive ring, offering 605 points of contact, translating to an ultra-fine 0.59° engagement. The pawls and drive rings are crafted from A2 tool steel using precision wire EDM cutting, and to reduce resistance and noise, they reduced pawl rotation, decreased pawl spring pressure, optimized drive ring diameter, and changed the contact seal layout. Additionally, SOLiX uses the same bearing sizes on the drive and non-drive side, evenly distributing the load placed on the hub shells.
