White Industries Eno Hub

I’ve read about these for some time now. My mate Ben said I had to get one if I want to run single speed and ditch the ugly tensioners on my frame (which has vertical drop-outs).

This hub allows you to ditch the tensioner as the eccentric axle allows the hub to pivot to tension the chain. There are a few local lads willing to source one, and build a wheel for me, but it’s been complicated. I found an eBay store in the states that sells the hub, and they’re more than willing to build be up a rear wheel around an eno hub for around $400 shipped.

It’s sad that everything is cheaper from overseas. As much as I want to support local, it’s hard when local bike stores charge, at times, 100% on top of the prices found on eBay. Even some Australian designed and made products are cheaper through international eBay than buying in a local store.
