2. Locking hubs - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locking_hubs

   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 ...

3. Wheel hub assembly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_hub_assembly

   The axle hub spins along with the wheels bolted to it and provide power to the wheels in order to rotate. A roller bearing between the axle hub and axle shaft ensures easy rotation of the non-drive wheels. On the axle side, it is mounted to the holding bracket from the chassis; on the disc side, the wheel is mounted to the bolts of the WHA ...

7. Wheelbuilding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelbuilding

   Adequate spoke tension is very important with motorcycle wheels, because of the greater torque applied to the wheel by an engine or disc brake. Loose spokes on a wheel fatigue rapidly and break, usually at the bend where they attach to the hub. When this happens, the wheel must be rebuilt using all new spokes, because even unbroken spokes in ...
