Sure: Onyx MTB MFU BOOST ISO HGSS 148/12 Thru-bolt Rear Hub
You can put the normal rear belt sprocket on, it just needs fewer spacers. The freehub tech is great for ebikes as it is super sturdy - no ratchet or pawl interface but sprag clutch. Another benefit is a better driveside spoke angle...
I have the Onyx hub on my XC rig, absolutely love it and the Hope Pro5 (which really isn’t that loud) on my Saturn Swift SO annoys me when I did a few rides on the XC rocket, and switch back to the Swift for some trail riding. Once you tried a silent hub, you‘re spoiled… that’s why I have my...
I think it's just like that - you hear the motor uphill, with the volume/loudness varying depending on what mode you're in and what cadence you pedal in what gear. Downhill, I don't see a reason why you should be hearing anything at all (from the motor). That's what everyone mentions after...

Even though I am a total Nicolai fan boy, I second that. Certain flaws will have a bigger influence for one rider than for another maybe, and for some people, the Nicolai MGU implementation will be perfect, and for others the new DJI thing is perfect... but there is no universal perfect. Looking...
Hi all! Registered here coming from Rob's YT channel. I have a frameset on order and can't wait for it. Have binge-watched the build video 374 times or so. Five more weeks to wait...
Nicolai is only 1.5 hours of a drive from here, so I was able to testride the bike before buying. This was the...
