SONdelux Wide-Body Generator Hub

The generator hub we use on our own bikes! The Delux Wide-Body features extra-wide flange spacing (68 mm vs. 50 mm) and a steel axle for a much stronger wheel. This hub is strong enough for off-road racing and even tandems.

The internals are the same as all SON Delux generator hubs: lightweight and with ultra-low resistance. SON’s unique pressure compensation system eliminates problems with water getting into the bearings as the large volume of the hub body warms and cools.

For bikes with disc brakes, we recommend the SONdelux Centerlock disc or SONdelux 12 thru axle Centerlock disc hubs. We also offer rims and spokes to build a complete wheel with this hub.

Pro Tip: The barrels of some SON hubs are wrapped with blue tape. This protects the hub from getting scratched when the spokes are inserted. Remove the tape after you’ve laced the wheel!
