The $1100 AeroCoach Wheel Hub: Crap Engineering, only surpassed by the Diabolical Customer Service

Byadmin

The £900 AeroCoach Aeox wheel hub promised cutting-edge performance but delivered a masterclass in engineering failure. With garbage machining, grooves that weaken rather than strengthen, and a design doomed by radial lacing, it’s less a cycling component and more a £900 liability. Add in AeroCoach’s radio-silence customer service, and you’ve got a product that fails on every level. Want to see the disaster for yourself? Watch it implode literally, in this video.

Elitewheels Low Inertia Aero Gravel Drive G45

Byadmin

9Velo is a relatively new company, but the individuals behind it have been in the carbon fibre wheel industry for a considerable length of time. These gravel wheels have some of the highest levels of manufacturing quality that I have ever seen. The hubs are probably the best ones you can buy; they make DT Swiss units look like rough copies in comparison.

Bearing Extraction: Using Blind Bearing Pullers

Bearing Extraction: Using Blind Bearing Pullers

Byadmin

Blind bearing pullers, initially created to remove bearings from rotating equipment without rear access, have been popularized for removing wheel bearings. Despite their increased use, these tools can inflict unnoticed damage on wheels. Primarily deployed in automotive and machinery maintenance, blind bearing pullers slide through the bearing, expand behind it, and retract, exerting a steady force without damaging surrounding areas. However, concerns arise when these tools are used without considering potential damage to internal preload spacers, causing potential legal repercussions for negligent installation in professional settings.
