Shimano DH-3N80 -->

New! 32 Hole Model DH-3N80  HUH12  $139.95 buy button

The DH-3N80 is the new lightweight model in Shimano's power generating front hubs.

This new model is Ultegra quality level, with double contact bearing seals and highly polished bearing surfaces. This results in very low drag and good weather resistance.

Requires No Batteries
No worries about battery charge level.
Low drag, weather protected
Drag with the Nexus is only slightly higher than with the much more expensive Schmidt hub. But far less than with a tire sidewall generator when the light is turned on.
Shimano's Dyno hubs can power most 6 Volt lights.

Model No. DH-3N80  
Over Lock-nut Dimension 100 mm  
Axle Length 108 (QR)  
Spoke Hole 32H  
Spoke Size 14 and smaller  
Hub Dynamo yes (6V, 3W)  
Spoke Flange Diameter 70 mm  
Weight 490gm

New! Problem Solvers Center-Lock Adaptor   BRD120 $23.95/ea. buy button

The Problem Solvers Center-Lock adaptor allows 6-bolt rotors to be used on Center-Lock hubs.

Features and Information

Center-Lock
  • Fits XTR, XT, LX, Deore and all Shimano Center-Lock patterned hubs.
  • Does not fit XTR or XT wheelsets due to clearance issues with hub flange
  • Does not fit Saint hubs due to the larger diameter of Center-Lock OS
  • 6061-T6 anodized aluminum
  • Troubleshooting: For easy installation, try using a cassette lockring. Install the lockring over the adaptor to push it all the way on, tighten the pinch bolt to proper torque, then remove lockring and install rotor. This helps ensure proper adaptor alignment. The lockwasher can be removed from the mounting bolt as it may cause the adaptor to twist out of alignment as bolt is tightened.
