The Vapor Hub

At Vapor we take pride in our ability to create and build hubs that are attractive and sleek. Our Vapor hubs have 18 holes. We use 6160 series aluminum and direct pull spokes for a strong, radial laced wheel. The contour in the body of the hub gives you a comfortable feel when pulling it off of the frame. There are no sharp edges and with a reduced form factor, the Vapor hub is lightweight. It is available in just about any color you want. The Vapor hubs accept an open source straight pull spoke which allows for unmatched serviceability. Did we mention these are manufactured right at our factory in Arizona?
