But with the Pro 4, Hope have seemingly done the impossible. With a ground up redesign, the Pro 4 hub takes everything that made the Pro 2 great and brings it bang up to date. With larger diameter flanges to help increase stiffness on modern 27.5 and 29 inch wheels with no weight increase, the Pro 4 uses Hope’s bullet proof sealed stainless steel cartridge bearings that make for an extremely reliable centrepiece to your wheelset. The Pro 4 rear hub features a brand new 4 Pawl Ratchet Freehub with 44 tooth engagement to offer a super quick 8.2 degree engagement, transferring every ounce of power you can muster in a ruthless manner.
