Tactic Racing hubs – Axial- Fix hub axles – Rear – All Tactic Disc hubs

Description

Why Tactic?

We have started offering Princeton Carbonworks wheels based on demand from our clients in late 2022. With the hype built up around their Team Ineos sponsorship, plus the stratospheric price tag, we were expecting them to be a real gem.  Even more so when paired with their own, very exotic Tactic Racing hubs.

With the progression of time though, unfortunately the opposite became true. The under-engineered faulty design of these hubs proved catastrophic in many cases. “Thanks” to their design, they operate either  with excessive play or binding in the bearings. Axial loading is the root of the problems here, as described in detail in one of my YT videos. With no real remedy being offered by the manufacturer, we have decided to go out on a limb and design a proper solution. After more than 8 months of testing and development, we are finally able to offer this solution to you:

For the rear hub, we have constructed an complete axle in a similar fashion. Just like the tri-spoke version, it is equipped with a threaded bearing pre-load adjuster. We have primarily designed it to fit the Blur V3 disc wheel. However, these share the internals all rear Tactic racing hubs, so they will work on all spoked wheels.

How can I fix my wheels?

The development and testing of the axles is now complete, with the first unit ready to be manufactured. As it is a rather niche product, we are making it in small batches of a limited quantity. To make sure you get your parts as soon as possible, we recommend you to put in your pre-order as soon as possible.

Thorough installation instructions will be provided by the end of May, when the first units will start shipping.

Tactic racing hubs axle types are precision machined from high grade aluminium alloys and anodized black.
