Rims from Strummer's durability series. These rims are not the lightest, fastest, or equipped with the latest geometry. They are strong and sturdy, with good build quality and well-made joints. This makes them suitable as a partner for an event where this component must not fail during the journey.

This Strummer Hub with a 6-pawl mechanism is made from materials that are lightweight yet sturdy. The axle is made from AL7075-T6 and has undergone a hardening process, making it strong enough to handle the terrain of the Bentang Jawa event. The technology and materials used in this axle have been tested on our MTB hubs, which have certainly handled routes that are far more undulating and challenging. The Strummer HR-100 is the right choice for riders who like a low-profile hub with a medium sound profile/volume.

The wheelset assembled with this Strummer Hub successfully completed the Bentang Jawa event without any problems. Thank you for trusting and using Strummer products.
