{"product_id":"e-thirteen-sidekick-rear-hub-6-bolt-28h","title":"Sidekick Rear Hub - 6-bolt - 28h","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eSidekick is the only hub that simultaneously eliminates pedal kickback, delivers near-zero freewheeling drag, and coasts near-silently — built for trail, all-mountain, enduro, and E-MTB riders at a price within reach of every rider.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe pusher-activated magnetic pawl mechanism fully decouples the drivetrain from the rear suspension during coasting, letting the rear end move freely through its travel without fighting chain tension. The result: better small-bump compliance, more traction on rough terrain, and a ride that feels effortlessly fast out of corners. BYB Telemetry testing shows up to 44% more time spent in the optimal 11–70% suspension travel range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eTool-free deadband adjustment gives you three settings changeable trailside in seconds. At 9°, engagement is fast and direct — comparable to a conventional hub, ideal for climbing. Open it to 13° or 18° for maximum anti-kickback and suspension performance on descents. The 17mm 7075 alloy axle delivers 50% more stiffness than the previous generation at 300g (Boost 148mm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEliminate pedal kickback\u003c\/strong\u003e — Full drivetrain isolation during coasting; suspension works as designed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNear-zero freewheeling drag\u003c\/strong\u003e — At least 55% less coasting drag than competing hubs in controlled tests\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNear-silent operation\u003c\/strong\u003e — Hear your tires and terrain, not your hub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool-free deadband adjustment\u003c\/strong\u003e — 9° \/ 13° \/ 18°; narrowest setting for quick climbing engagement, wider settings for maximum anti-kickback performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e300g (Boost 148mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Competitive with the lightest conventional hubs on the market\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e17mm alloy axle\u003c\/strong\u003e — ASTM 5 rated at 150kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDriver compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — XD, HG, and Microspline; 148mm (Boost) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc mount \u0026amp; spoke options\u003c\/strong\u003e — 6-bolt 28h configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eE-MTB compatible\u003c\/strong\u003e — Reduces drivetrain clatter from motor torque pulses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10-year warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e — Lifetime bearing coverage, fully rebuildable, designed for extended service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"e*thirteen","offers":[{"title":"Boost (12x148mm) - \/ Shimano HG","offer_id":48879356084459,"sku":"HB5UKA-206","price":249.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Boost (12x148mm) - \/ Shimano MS","offer_id":48879356149995,"sku":"HB5UKA-205","price":249.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Boost (12x148mm) - \/ SRAM XD","offer_id":48879356182763,"sku":"HB5UKA-204","price":249.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/8251\/9219\/files\/ethirteen-sidekick-hub-hg.jpg?v=1781634938","url":"https:\/\/thundermountainbikes.com\/products\/e-thirteen-sidekick-rear-hub-6-bolt-28h","provider":"Thunder Mountain Bikes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
