The e*thirteen Sidekick hub features a unique anti-kickback drive with an adjustable dead zone, providing a smooth suspension behavior, reduced fatigue, and near-silent operation for an unparalleled riding experience.
The Sidekick hub is a revolutionary milestone in the field of mountain bike wheels. Developed and tested with the best teams and riders in the world over several seasons, the Sidekick hub enhances the suspension performance of any full-suspension mountain bike. Its groundbreaking freehub mechanism disconnects the drive from the rear wheel when not pedaling, and an adjustable dead zone filters out feedback and chain vibrations before they reach the pedals. This effectively eliminates the influence of pedal movement on the suspension. Since the drive is decoupled from the ratchet ring, resistance is significantly reduced. The result is an extremely smooth ride over rough terrain, improved traction, higher speed and control, as well as less fatigue. The near-silent operation allows you to fully immerse yourself in nature – you hear nothing but the wind in your ears and the crunch of tires on the trail.
