Structure analysis of Bicycle hub
The hub is actually very simple, but all hubs are nothing more than a rolling friction roller, not the main body shell, shaft, fasteners (nuts or quick-release levers), and the three bitter enemies must each other for life. -
Types of bicycle hubs
1. Ordinary single speed hub
The most common type that can be replaced with a flywheel is generally made of iron, loose beads, and some have bead nests.
2. One fly single speed hub
Relative to the high-end commuter bike, it has a tower base structure and the flywheel can be replaced separately. Generally 14 teeth.
3. Internally geared hub
Commuter cars generally use internal three-speed hubs.
4. Inverted drum brake hub
It has a rear hub that drives the brake mechanism when the chain rotates in the reverse direction. -

The difference between bearing hub and ball hub
The various rolling bearings used in bicycles (mainly hubs, bottom brackets, headsets, pedals) can be simply divided into bearing and ball gear bearings.
So what exactly are bearing shaft and ball gear bearing?
The bearing shaft actually refers to a shaft that uses an industrial deep groove ball bearing assembly as a rolling bearing. The structure can be seen in the figure below. Its characteristic is that it can be repaired by replacing the bearing assembly when damaged.
The ball gear bearing is composed of a bowl, a shaft gear, and a ball in the middle. They and the hub body together form a large bearing. Because the ball does not need to use a cage-like industrial bearing, the ball gear structure bearing of the same size can accommodate more More balls, and each ball has a larger contact area, which can withstand greater pressure.
All Trifox carbon fiber road bike wheelset RW100 Series are use bearing hub.

Is the bicycle hub louder the better?
I don’t know if you have any experience like this, that is, the riders around you are pursuing a very loud hub. For example, the pursuit of a lot of 120-sound hubs does not mean that the louder the hubs, the better.
