Description
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.
