Hope Introduces the Pro 5 DH Hub 2

Made for a smaller cassette, the Pro 5 DH hub features wider flange spacing for a stronger wheel.

We have now added a downhill option to Pro 5 line up. The DH hub has been specifically designed around a 7spd DH drivetrain. This enabled us to use the space normally reserved for a cassette to widen and equally space the hub flanges. The wider spoke bracing angle combined with equal spoke tension on a symmetric rim makes the complete wheel as strong as possible.
