FAQs
Does this hub work with centerlock rotors?
No, this specific model is designed exclusively for 6-bolt disc brake rotors.
Can I convert this hub to a different axle standard?
Yes, the Pro 5 is designed to be versatile; you can purchase and install different end caps to accommodate various axle configurations.
What is the spoke count of this hub?
This hub features a 32-hole drilling pattern.
Is this hub suitable for e-bike use?
The robust construction and high-quality bearings make it a suitable choice for many e-bike applications, provided it matches your fork's axle standard.
How often should I service the bearings?
Service intervals depend on riding conditions. For regular mountain biking, check and clean the seals every 6 months; replace bearings if you feel notchiness or play.
Troubleshooting
Side-to-side play in the front wheel
Check that the end caps are fully seated. If play persists, the internal bearings may require adjustment or replacement.
Rough or gritty feeling while spinning
The hub seals may have accumulated dirt. Remove the end caps, clean the seal area, and apply a fresh layer of waterproof grease.
Difficulty installing the thru-axle
Ensure the hub end caps are pushed fully into the hub shell and that you are using the correct 110mm Boost spacing for your fork.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, the Hope Pro 5 should be laced into a rim by a qualified wheel builder using appropriate spoke tension. The 32-hole count is standard for most mountain bike rims, offering a balance of weight and strength.

Care
Regularly wipe down the hub shell to keep it clean, and periodically check the end caps to ensure they are seated correctly. If you notice any play in the wheel, the bearings can be serviced or replaced using simple tools without needing a hydraulic press. Always use high-quality, water-resistant bicycle grease during any maintenance to keep the seals functioning optimally.
