The Ringlé Superdeupereight rear hub was amongst the best performing, lightest and coolest rear hubs you could fit in the mid 90s. Replacing the Supereight in 1996 with an improved freehub body, stiffer axle and lower weight the Superdupereight was available in a range of colours and cost a big chunk of money. Tested by the Yeti race team who were equipped with Ringle throughout, these made in the USA hubs were found to be stiffer than their predecessor and therefore worked better on the race-winning full suspension Yetis (ARC AS and ARC AS/LT).
In 1997 Ringle started to change the logo to this italicised version and laser etch their hubs rather than use stickers.
We also have some NOS spares of the propietary Superdeupereight freehub body.
