Product Description

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:  
*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.

N52 curved mte hub on gt rules

I've tried it in all kinds of conditions, trail and street. Back to back with a GTS rally and another GT to compare. I love my hottrodded gt now. It feels so good. The low end torque is awesome. Launching, climbing, crawling, bonking, carving. Everything feels better with the better torque from the n52s. Just feels solid and stable. So good. Pioneer tire also rules on this hub. If you want to give your gt the low end torque of a GTS, this will get you pretty darned close. With the extra tire cushion, it rides even better imo.

Gamechanger. Period.

I have got two of them for my boards. Nothing even compares to that ride feeling!

Best Upgrade!!!

You guys have done it again! The 5 inch hub is amazing! I write an OG XR. After 2500 miles I have been experiencing surging. Like hitting uneven pavement. And my board has been struggling to support my weight. Even though I am only 153lbs.
This has definitely shook in my confidence in my equipment.

The 5 inch hub, N52 totally resolved the issue! The new lower end torque is noticeable. My board no longer surges when hitting small gaps and steep incline trail riding.

I feel like the added torque is definitely keeping me safer. I mainly ride trail.

But when riding Street, running 18psi I can still hit 21.6mph pretty easy.

You would think running 18 psi would feel super rigid. But with the extra air cushion the 5 inch hub provides. You still get a comfortable ride.
Thanks guys!!!
I’m Super happy with my purchase!!! My confidence is back, and my XR is stronger then ever! 🦾

From Jeff’s Favorite N48 on a 555

I trail ride. Both are phenomenal. For slow moves and tree roots… N52 and the 655 at 10# for 170# human is something to check out.

Great buy !!!! MTE rocks

Bought the MTE for my new XRC, paired it with the 555 enduro tire. Was a challenge to get the tire on the hub but figured out an easy way to do it after going at it for hours. Brains over braun situation. Love the ride , had not ridden the XRC as shipped so can’t compare the difference in ride. The items shipped fast really happy with float life’s service, would definitely recommend ordering from them for any Onewheel accessories. Also picked up some blem items , kush pad and some bumpers at a very good price for my daughter’s XR. Happy customer will definitely be getting more stuff soon.
