Product Description
Sidekick Pro Anti-Kickback Rear MTB HubRide smoother. Let the suspension breathe. Climb without the snap of pedal kickback and descend with your chain out of the way. This hub makes the bike feel freer, quieter and more composed. It’s the part you forget until it isn’t there—then you notice the difference.What this lets you feelNo chain tension pulling the frame. No drivetrain fighting the suspension. You’ll hear the trail, not the hub. Coasting feels free. Pedal inputs feel direct when you want them to, and invisible when you don’t. It changes how the bike moves under you, on every line.Why that mattersWhen the drivetrain is decoupled from the suspension, the bike tracks better. Small bumps stop tugging at your chain. Your suspension stays active and sensitive. That adds traction, keeps the rear wheel in contact, and makes the bike calmer on chattery rock and fast hits. On climbs, set the hub tight and it feels snappy and responsive. On descents, open the deadband and let the suspension work without chain interference.How it works (in rider terms)A pusher-activated magnetic pawl system retracts completely when you stop pedalling. The result is near-zero drag and near-silent operation. Change the tool-free deadband to 9°, 13° or 18° wherever you ride. 9° gives quick, climb-friendly engagement. 13° and 18° maximise anti-kickback for loose, steep or rowdy descents.The Pro upgrades you actually noticeInside, the Pro version tightens everything that matters. EZO bearings in the driver and TPX bearings in the shell reduce friction and smoothen rotation. Nickel-plated pawls and pusher last longer and slide cleaner. The hub remains light—300g in Boost 148x12mm—while standing up to real trail use with a 17mm alloy axle rated ASTM 5 at 150kg. The dual black and sterling silver anodised finish looks sharp and rides hard.Compatibility and serviceBuilt for trail, all-mountain, enduro and E-MTB use.
