Industry Nine Hubs & Wheels
Industry Nine hubs and wheels, machined in Asheville, North Carolina. Hydra2 hubs with 870 points of engagement, the Solix and 1/1 ranges, and the freehubs, bearings and service parts to keep them running. We stock them in Three Kings and lace them into complete wheels in our own workshop.
Which Industry Nine Hub Suits You?
Hydra2 is Industry Nine’s flagship mountain bike hub: 870 points of engagement, six phased pawls with three teeth each, a rear axle 65% thicker than the original Hydra and 60% less coasting drag. The Solix and 1/1 ranges round out the line-up, and complete wheelsets are built on the same hubs. The Hydra2 internals are not backwards compatible with first-generation Hydra hubs.
Industry Nine Product Highlights
870 points of engagement
Industry Nine quotes 870 points of engagement at 0.41°. On technical climbs and ratchet moves the driver picks up almost as soon as you turn the pedals.
Six phased pawls
Six phased pawls with three teeth each sit in larger pockets that dissipate force better and resist elongation. The drive ring is 7% larger with shallower teeth, which Industry Nine says keeps the noise level in check.
A rear axle 65% thicker
The externally butted axle is 65% thicker than the outgoing design, with a stress washer at the freehub to spread loads into the shell.
Sealed for wet riding
Full-contact radial lip seals plus a labyrinth channel on 6903 hubshell bearings, with the brake-side bearing moved further into the hub. Coasting drag is down 60%.

Industry Nine FAQs
Can I upgrade my original Hydra hub to Hydra2 internals?
No. Industry Nine redesigned the axle, pawls, drive ring and seals together, and the Hydra2 internals are not backwards compatible with the first-generation Hydra. Existing Hydra hubs are still supported with spares, and we stock pawls, springs, seals and freehub lubricant for them.
Which freehub and rotor standards does Hydra2 come in?
Freehubs: SRAM XD, Shimano Micro Spline, HG and single speed. Rotor mounts: 6-bolt or Centerlock. Rear spacings run from 12 x 142 through Boost 12 x 148 to Super Boost 12 x 157 and DH 12 x 150, with matching Boost and non-Boost fronts. Tell us the bike and we will confirm the fit.
What colours do Hydra2 hubs come in?
Seven anodised colours: black, silver, orange, gold, red, purple and bronze. Not every colour and spacing combination is on the shelf, so if the one you want is not listed, ask us and we will order it through 3Sixty Sports, the New Zealand distributor.
Do you sell the hubs separately or only as wheels?
Both. Industry Nine hubs are sold individually on this site, so you can buy a hub for your own builder, and we also lace them into complete wheels in our Three Kings workshop. Use the enquiry form and include your rim, hub spacing, freehub and spoke count.
