Freehub vs freewheel hub. The freehub concept answers several drawbacks encountered with the freewheel design: Freewheels are threaded onto an axle hub, using conventional right-hand threads. As the bicycle rider pedals, the freewheel is continuously kept tight, as chain torque is in the right-hand direction. This becomes a problem when the ...
The hub is a component where the wheel is directly mounted to, and is outside the axle. The benefits of unlocking hubs for normal road use are mainly found in increased fuel efficiency . When the front hubs are locked, even if no power is sent to the front axle (by means of a transfer case ), the turning of the wheels will still spin the front ...
