Suntour XC Comp MTB hubs – 36 hole / 7 speed standard

Suntour XC Comp MTB hubs

NOS Suntour XC Comp MTB hubs

Early 90s Suntour XC Comp hubs in the standard seven speed freehub version with original rubber handled quick releases. I believe these are from 1992 when Suntour was offering their proprietary cassette spline and freehub system in an ever-increasing number of options! There was a MicroDrive version of this hub but they are not cross compatible so you need a non-MicroDrive 7 speed Suntour cassette (model CS-AP10-S7). In addition Suntour’s efforts at indexing were working, but were also complicated, you will need a 7 speed Acuushift Plus shifter and rear mech for it all to play nicely.

These faffy bits aside these are really nice hubs, almost as good as XC Pro with a lovely pair of quick release skewers too. The rear is 130 mm OLN for older MTBs and the front is a standard 100 mm OLN, both hubs are 36 hole.
