2013 Hive Catalog by Brandon Turman

2013

Technology

1. Increased Stiffness 2. Wide Spoke Bracing Angle 3. Shorter, Lighter Spokes 4. Up to 70% Less Spoke Stress

Spoke Triangulation Triangulation is increased on every e*thirteen wheelset over the standard run of the mill wheels you are used to seeing.Â This basically stiffens our wheels up laterally so you can corner with confidence on the line you choose, and not fight a floppy, wimpy wheel through all of the corners.

Technology

P3 Connect Interface The Polygon 3 Lobe Interface was designed using German DIN 32711-P3 Polygon interface commonly found on high torque industrial applications including tank drive shaft components. This provides 100% spindle to crankarm surface contact and avoids splined interface degradation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the primary causes of crank loosening and creaking.

1. 100% Contact 2. No Splines to Deform 3. Adaptive Preload System 4. Extremely Stiff

Technology

1. More Responsive Braking 2. Snappy Acceleration 3. Up to 70% Less Spoke Stress 4. Shared Braking and Accelerating Loads

Oversized Flanges and Torsion Tube These two proprietary hub technologies increase spoke triangulation and transfer pedaling load to both sides of the wheel, not just the drive side. This gives you wheels are laterally stiff so they will go where you point them and have up to 70% less stress on the drive side spokes.

Technology

1. Much faster installation 2. Easy adjustment 3. No more axle spacers 4. No tools to preload bearings

Adaptive Preload System (APS) Installing cranks has never been easier. 1. Pick your favorite e*thirteen crankset, ring combination, and bottom bracket. 2. Install your cranks and BB with a torque wrench. 3. Hand tighten the APS adjuster. 4. Go ride.

Available in 2013 on all TRS and LG1 cranksets

LG1

The Re-Invention of Downhill The World Cup winning LG1 chainguide is no longer in a category of its own. This year it is joined not only by cranks and wheels, but the long awaited LG1+ pedals. Rounding out the LG1 lineup is the 825 gram LG1r DH crank and an EXA+ Aluminum/ Carbon DH wheelset.

P3 Connect

Technology

The Polygon 3 Lobe Interface was designed using German DIN 32711-P3 Polygon interface. This provides 100% spindle to crankarm surface contact and avoids splined interface degradation.

Adaptive Preload System

A new tool-less bearing pre-load system that makes crank installation a snap.

SpeedShift

Dual and Triple rings--the best shifting in adverse conditions, designed by our engineer that lives in Tahoe trudging through the most extreme weather he can get out in.

Impact Flexure Design

Impact Flexure design technology enhances impact absorption capabilities, significantly reduces weight and redirects energies away from the chain, rings, and pedal bodies.

Lightweight EXtrusion

Technology Philosophy At e*thirteen we strive to get you the best technology we know how to deliver. We are avoiding the “smoke and mirrors” approach and giving you products that make your ride better and easier. Guides that fit and work. Wheels that hug the curves and cranksets that handle the big hits. All stuff that you want out of your bike every time you ride it.

Our new LEX and LEXe processes yield rims that are strong enough to be used as daily riders cross the any terrain you can throw at it. Our LG1 rims incorporate the LEXe process which involves brazing in eyelets to keep material only where you need it.

Angular Contact Bearings

Angular Contact bearings are supported by a thick section of bearing race on either side, as well as top and bottom. These bearings are designed to support “combined loads” in both the axial (turning) and radial (accelerating) directions.

660 Freehub

Our indestructible freehub ratchet mechanism. All of our hubs have a blazing fast 6 degrees and 60 points of engagement to get you the best acceleration on climbs and out of tight corners.

Triple Start Thread

The reverse thread nut on our hubs has 3 threads for more strength, and only requires a hand tightened twist for adjustment.

TubeLess System

e*thirteen TubeLeSs Compatible rim profiles have all the features designed in to let your Tubeless tires pop right into place and stay in place without those embarrassing “burps” during high-speed corners.

At the Hive, WE BELIEVE. . . We believe in riding bikes. We all ride and we all like to ride our bikes. We believe in riding every product we make. Everything gets tested on us first. We believe in delivering new technology. We don’t like to copy everyone else. That is really boring. We believe in using the least harmful processes we can to make bike parts. We believe in recycling. We have tried to eliminate staples and glue from all of our newest packaging to make it easier for you. We believe in using as little packaging as we can–and always using as much recycled content as possible.

We believe in bikes.
