Description
Erase is high-end Belgian manufacturer whose products include features that should be found only on hubs with an order of magnitude higher price point. These Belgian hubs have gained popularity quickly among all cycling disciplines – and for a good reason.
Hub Specs
- Erase MTB v2 hub model.
- Boost spacing: 110x15mm front / 148x12mm rear.
- 28H spoke hole count, 6-bolt disc rotor mounts.
- Ratchet-style freehub mechanism with a 60 POE number.
- Freehub driver bodies are made of grade 5 titanium – a feature that could be described as a true highlight on hubs twice the price! The reasoning for using titanium in this application is as follows: “We use Grade 5 titanium to make the freehub. Why? Because we didn’t want to see anymore sprocket marks on the freehub without taking too much weight.”
- Limited lifetime warranty to the original owner.
Rims
Wheels are offered with a variety of rim options to suit the intended application, including differing internal widths, and rim materials. See the continually updated rim choice page by clicking the link below to find the right match for your needs.
Spokes & Nipples
Wheels are built with double-butted Sapim Race spokes that employ a 2.0/1.8/2.0mm profile. The Race spokes are the default spoke choice for multiple reasons.
- Excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
- Better fatigue-resistance properties than straight gauge 2.0mm spokes.
- Excellent value, and availability.
Race spokes are mated with with black-coloured Sapim Polyax Double Square nipples. Brass nipples are used exclusively in builds because of their reliability, low to zero maintenance needs, corrosion resistance and strength. Reliability, and function are further enhanced by using the Secure-Lock version of the said nipples, or by adding a mild adhesive compound with traditional nipples.
Build
Unless otherwise specified by the component manufacturer, all wheels are built with the following properties:
- 3-cross lacing pattern.
- Thorough stress-relieving process.
- Highest tension approved by the component manufacturer – usually 1200N.
- With a high degree of trueness, and roundness.
The whole build process is made by hand.
