Remember how big of a difference it was going from a 6" XR hub to a 6.5" GT hub? Well double that feeling, but in the other (actually good) direction and you'll start to get an idea of how amazing the MTE 5" hub rides.

Magnet Strengths:
*N42: Highest speed, perfect for downhill racers trying to hit 30 mph, but also the lowest cost option for anyone who isn't pushing their board to the limit. (Stock XR & GT = N42) Curved edition has custom made curved magnets for increased performance.       
*N48: Jeff's Favorite, a balanced option for those who like to ride through pushback at around 23 mph, and also want a little extra torque for climbing hills. Curved edition has custom made curved magnets for increased performance.
*N52: Highest torque option, perfect for anyone who "respects pushback" and keeps it around 20 mph, and also wants the maximum extra torque for hills. Curved edition has custom made curved magnets for increased performance. Riders with GT-S motors will want this option. 

*Note: All our magnets are high temp rated meaning they can survive overheated motors without degrading in strength.

For GTS riders:
We recommend the N52 which is nearly identical to the stock GTS hub performance.  The N48 or N42 will also work but you'll lose 5-10% torque with the benefit being an even higher top speed if that's what you're looking for.
 

Tapered Roller Bearings:
TRB are the cutting edge in Onewheel bearing technology. Bearing changes are now a thing of the past thanks to TRB! If you're looking for the longest lasting, smoothest bearings available for your Onewheel™, you found them.

Worth it!

If you like to rip trail and eat chunk you need this 5" hub! The suspension it allows is absolutely incredible! Pair it with the TFL Pioneer for ultimate off-roading!

Totally love the MTE hub especially in the Tiffany absolutely amazing color. Game changer with all that extra sidewall and cushion and don’t think about it. WORTH EVERY PENNY. I’ll just leave it at that.
Never Stop Improving.

Originally installed on my gts with a burris 11x7-5 tx11 and it was great, then put it in a gtv with iceblocks and it may not be the fastest board but it has crazy grip, torque and can go the distance 20+ miles. Great quality hub for cheap. As always, great service and shipping.

5” mte and 655 combo

I mostly ride in the dirt so this was no-brainer for me. Kind of expensive but worth it in the long run. I feel like I’m riding on clouds now on the dirt.
