Cinema VX2 Cassette Hub and Wheel
Cinema have questionably the most dialled team in BMX right now, even more so after picking up Chad Kerley last month. The team have been testing a new Cassette hub for most of last year and putting it through it’s paces. The VX2 Cassette Hub is now available both as a Hub and also as a complete wheel laced up to Cinema’s very own 777 double walled welded Rim. The VX2 Hubs are all RHD and LHD compatible through a SDS (switch drive system) driver, and also feature angled flanges to prevent the stretch of the hub shell.
Material: 6061 aluminum hub shell
Axle: 14mm heat-treated chromoly axle with 8mm internal hex
Axle Nuts: 14mm threaded alloy nuts (14×1 thread pitch)
Non-Driveside Cone: Press-on alloy cone (x1)
Drive Side Cones: 24mm threaded steel nuts (x2)
Driver: 9-tooth chromoly, polymer bushing driver, switch drive system.
Flange Offset From Center: 26mm
Pitch Circle Diameter: 45mm
Bearing Code: 6902 (x2)
Spoke Holes: 36 holes
Weight: 16.35 oz
Available separately is a specific 7075 aluminum hub guard for the VX2 which pushes on to the non-drive side of the Hub to replace the cone nut. The push-on hardware is much better for hub guards as thread-on guards can deform the axle or even crush the bearings in the Hub.
Both the Hubs and Wheels are available now. Be sure to hit up Cinema for more info on the VX2 as well as their other products.
