When reliability, precision, and value converge, the result is the Novatec D771SB Disc Front Hub—an exceptional choice for riders seeking dependable performance for recreational, endurance, and training rides. Renowned globally and trusted by OEMs across the cycling industry, Novatec hubs strike a perfect balance between affordability and technical sophistication, making them a staple in both custom builds and high-volume production wheels.
Crafted with a lightweight CNC-machined alloy shell, the D771SB embodies durability without the weight penalty. Its clean profile is designed around the J-Hook spoke interface, offering classic lacing compatibility and ease of maintenance. Whether you're building a 20, 24, 28, or 32-spoke wheel, this hub accommodates various configurations, giving wheelbuilders the flexibility to fine-tune strength-to-weight ratios for road, gravel, or light XC use.
Inside the shell lie two premium Japanese EZO #6902 sealed cartridge bearings, providing silky smooth rotation and extended service intervals. These industrial-grade bearings are known for their low-friction movement, high durability, and consistent performance in all weather conditions—essential traits for both competitive and recreational riders. The fully sealed design keeps out water, dust, and grit, ensuring minimal maintenance and maximum longevity.
Versatility is another defining strength of the D771SB. With compatibility across multiple axle standards—QR, 9mm, 12mm, and 15mm thru-axles (all at 100mm O.L.D.)—this hub integrates seamlessly into a wide range of modern forks, making it an ideal upgrade or replacement component. Whether you're modernizing an older bike or building a new wheelset, the D771SB’s adaptable interface ensures a precise fit across multiple disciplines and generations of frame design.
The hub’s geometry is tuned for strength and efficiency. With a Flange-To-Flange (F.T.F.) width of 62.00mm, and a balanced hub offset of 7.20mm, it supports evenly dished wheel builds that resist flex under load. Its Pitch Circle Diameter (P.C.D.) of 58mm / 45mm provides optimal spoke bracing angles, promoting lateral stiffness and better torque transfer when sprinting or climbing. The result is a responsive, bombproof front wheel that handles aggressive cornering, sudden braking, and rolling terrain with poise.
The 6-bolt disc brake interface further enhances control and braking efficiency, ensuring solid rotor engagement and broad compatibility with widely available disc systems. Built for real-world riders who care about consistent braking under any conditions, this setup delivers reliable stopping power across terrain and seasons.
