The Hope Pro 5 Hub is the culmination of Hope’s 30 years of manufacturing experience in mountain bike hubs and components.
Machined in the UK from forged aluminium billet, the Pro 5 features stainless steel cartridge bearings and easily swappable end caps for different axle configurations without the need to remove bearings.
The FR 541 is the strongest ever rim from DT Swiss. It may not be your first rim, but it aspires to be the last.
The new rim shape improves the impact resistance, enabling you to push a little harder on the trails. It also enhances the pinch flat protection for a trusty ride on rougher tracks.Â
