The faster engagement 9° narrowest deadband setting feels more like traditional hubs when climbing is a priority, and tool-free deadband adjustment allows you to increase the degrees of deadband depending on terrain, maximizing anti-kickback effects when the going gets rough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe results on short to medium travel bikes are a smoother, less fatiguing ride, and a feeling of more usable suspension, without affecting the intended frame kinematics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFront and rear specific, low-profile Flux Pro Carbon rims set new standards in compliance, strength, weight, and performance.
