The “X one” Series 5 Hub Mechanism
The “X one” Series 5 Hub Mechanism (The gravity-zero freewheel hub system is covered by pending Australian and international patent applications.) is fitted to all wheels sets from December 2007 onwards. The Series 5 with increased cam angles and spring tensions lock up is more instant. It eliminates any form of backlash/lag at the hub or pedal: This equals zero lag. In simple terms it is like riding a fixed wheel bike with gears. The “X one” creates a pedalling motion like no other freewheel hub, it propells the riders legs through the position of least mechanical advantage at the top and bottom of each pedal stroke. This moment is sometimes refered to as TDC and BDC, the Top Dead Centre and the Bottom Dead Centre.
