    I9 Anodization Notice

    *Due to the nature of Industry Nine’s anodization process, we’re unable to guarantee colour match between hubs on single-wheel orders. If you’d like to ensure a new hub matches what one you currently own, please reach out to us via email and we’ll do our best to assist.

    *Select Spokes

    Alpina Extralight spokes offer an incredible balance of performance, durability and weight. Those looking for additional weight savings should consider Sapim CX-Ray bladed spokes, or BERD PolyLight spokes geared towards cross country and gravel wheelsets.

    *After a few months of use your BERD wheelset will need to be retensioned. We highly recommend purchasing a BERD Retensioning Kit.

Brand: NOBL Wheels

The new SOLiX hub from Industry Nine was born from design principles refined by years of off-road hub design, now fine-tuned in a hub that is a leap forward in the brand’s road and gravel hub lineup. SOLiX delivers mechanical efficiency, competitive weight, and enhanced longevity, with a distinctive new hub shell design.

Engagement

At the heart of SOLiX is a continuously-phased five pawl freehub seamlessly integrating with a 121 tooth drive ring. This combination offers 605 points of contact translating to an ultra-fine .59° engagement. The pawls and drive rings are crafted to precision from high grade steel and engineered for maximum durability.

Bearings & Seals

The SOLiX hub boasts reduced pawl rotation, decreased pawl spring pressure, optimized drive ring diameter, and improvements to the contact seal layout, which translates to diminished drag and freewheeling noise. These hubs feature the same bearing sizes on drive and non-drive side - evenly distributing load placed on the hub shells, which greatly increases their overall strength and longevity. The higher load bearings are protected by replaceable full-contact radial lip seals to keep the elements at bay.

Hub Shell

The distinctive scalloped flanges shave hub weight without sacrificing the strength of the shell, key priorities for many road and gravel riders. SOLiX hubs are available in every anodized colour in the i9 catalogue.
