American Classic MTB Hubs
The American Classic 210 is one of the lightest MTB hubs on the market today. The American Classic MTB 210 contains the strong, patented 6 pawl cam actuated engagement system. The flange spacing was designed for optimal dishing which is the balance point between wheel triangulation, spoke tension and lateral stiffness.

American Classic MTB 210 Rear – at 210 grams, it is one of the lightest hubs on the market. The MTB 210 contains the strong, patented 6 pawl cam actuated engagement system. The flange spacing was designed for optimal dishing which is the balance point between wheel triangulation, spoke tension and lateral stiffness. The hub shell supports the bearings as wide as possible for maximum leverage, reducing the load on the bearing and making the hub stiffer. Bearing bores are precision crafted and tested so that they are truly round and straight. Adjustable bearings and patented sleeve technology for ease of adjustment and improved bearing life. Every part of this hub has been engineered and thoroughly tested.
6 Pawl design – one of American Classic owner and designer Bill Shook’s most important designs is his patented Six Pawl Cam Actuated Engagement System found in our hubs. All six oversized pawls engage in unison whenever drive torque is applied. No other multiple pawl system on the market can ensure that all pawls are engaged at the same time. The cam plate powers the pawls into engagement simultaneously. There are new expanded cupped engagement pockets in the cam plate for improved contact. The secondary ratchet system does the coasting and forces engagement of the large pawls only for drive torque transfer. Each pawl is made from super strong tool steel and has double tips for 12 points of engagement. The cassette body has 24 ratchet teeth for engagement with the pawls. The one piece forged 7075 aluminum cassette body is hard anodized and is topped with Bill’s latest steel face body design.
American Classic Disc 130 Front - one of the lightest disc specific front hubs around without sacrificing stiffness and durability. Large 17mm front axle and stout 17mm stainless steel bearings resist fork flex. The hub shell is forged out of one solid piece of aluminum. Built-in stand offs on the disc mounts allow the rotor to mount flat and prevent warping while tightening. 3.5mm thick flanges for added strength. Patented bearing sleeve technology for easy adjustability and improved bearing life. Serrated steel end caps to securely grip the fork. Double seal system to keep grit and dirt out of the bearings. The 130 has been thoroughly tested and carefully engineered to produce a front disc hub that is built to last.
American Classic 15mm Thru Axle - on the leading edge of the new 15mm technology, Bill Shook created one of the first high performance 15mm thru axle hubs on the market. The new 15mm Thru Axle Disc hub is the balance between strength and stiffness to survive the torture of serious mountain biking, and lightness for improved handling. Big 17mm front axle and 17mm bearings resist fork flex. The hub shell is forged out of one solid piece of aluminum. Built-in stand offs on the disc mounts allow the rotor to mount flat and prevent warping while tightening. 3.5mm thick flanges for added strength. Stout 17mm bearings and patented bearing sleeves for easy adjustability and improved bearing life. Double seal system to keep grit and dirt out of the bearings. The new 15mm Thru Axle Front hub has been thoroughly tested and carefully engineered to produce a hub that is built to last.
