BSD Revolution V1.5 Mind

Traditional freecoasters use a clutch system involving springs and balls that can feel loose or clunky. The planetary system in the Revolution V1.5 provides near-instant engagement, meaning it feels much more like a cassette hub while still allowing you to coast backward without your pedals spinning.

Yes, it is built specifically for that purpose. The hub shell is machined from durable 6061-T6 aluminum, and the wheel includes Jersey Barrier hub guards designed to protect the hub flange and bearings during grinds.

The planetary design is engineered to provide a consistent, cassette-like pedal gap right out of the box. Unlike some older freecoaster designs, you do not need to manually adjust the slack, as the internal mechanism is optimized for immediate response.

Because the bearings are fully sealed, they are highly resistant to dirt and grime, requiring very little day-to-day maintenance. Simply keep the wheel true and ensure your axle nuts are tight, and the bearings should run smoothly for a long time.

The I-beam design adds significant structural rigidity to the rim without adding unnecessary weight. This stiffness helps the wheel maintain its shape under heavy impacts and provides a more responsive feel when you are landing tricks or carving.
