The SaltPlus TRAPEZ front hub is a clear example of a component that doesn’t try to stand out visually, but instead builds the bike through pure function. SaltPlus comes from the WeThePeople parts line, bringing that same philosophy: proven constructions, well-thought-out details, and no unnecessary hype.
Behind the TRAPEZ name is a low flange design that not only saves weight but also optimizes spoke angle. This allows the wheel to flex more naturally, reduces stress on the spokes, and handles impacts more efficiently. The CNC-machined cones aren’t just for looks, they play a real role in load distribution, especially during grinds and lateral impacts.
The female axle system keeps the axle stronger internally while using bolts on the outside for mounting. This reduces the chance of bending and creates a more stable connection with the fork. Sealed bearings ensure smooth rolling and are well protected against dirt and moisture.
The included nylon hub guards are not just optional extras. They actively take the abuse during grinds, so the hub shell itself doesn’t get direct hits.
This is the kind of front hub you install and then forget about. It just works, consistently, session after session.
