Extralite CyberRear SPD-3 Rear Hub

The titanium ratchet provides a lightweight, durable engagement mechanism that ensures efficient power transfer. By using titanium, Extralite reduces rotational weight without sacrificing the strength needed for high-performance road and cyclocross riding.

Yes, the CyberRear SPD-3 is designed to be versatile. It supports both 12x142mm thru-axle and 10x135mm quick-release standards, allowing you to adapt the hub to different frame setups.

The external preload tuner allows you to fine-tune the bearing tension without disassembling the hub. This ensures the bearings run smoothly and last longer by eliminating play or excessive drag, which is critical for maintaining performance over time.

The choice depends on your maintenance habits and performance goals. Standard steel bearings are reliable and cost-effective, while the HDC Hybrid Ceramic or XD-15 options offer reduced friction and higher durability for riders who prioritize marginal gains and longevity.

The hub is highly adaptable and offers freehub body options for Shimano HG, SRAM XD/XDR, and Campagnolo systems. Be sure to select the specific freehub body that matches your current cassette and drivetrain setup when ordering.
