Rujixu Hub - 450 clicks

This is an early review of the Rujixu 450 hub.
Made in Taiwan.
Bought from Ali Express.
A solid hub designed for mountain biking trails, downhill, gravel, etc...
Will it survive the abuse of bike trials riding?
So far it looks promising but only time will tell.

What is the most important thing for me in a hub is quality in terms of engagement and tolerances Higher precision and better engineering will lead to a significantly more reliable engagement and with that wear your bearings, axle, etc. much less With this, how many engagements a hub has doesn't really play a huge role to me personally, as long as it is well made causing me the consumer fewer issues Cool hub regardless!

[@mrnumbskull1]

thanks for posting!-- I guess this is a i9 hydra knock--off-- at the price, it might be fun to try it out.--with 9 triple pawls the forces should be more evenly spaced out vs the 6 pawls of the hydra

[@RKIMDRUM]

They also make a knock-off i9 hydra with 690t ratcheting mechanism lol

[@StephenGinman]

@@RKIMDRUM The company is claiming that they are made in the same factory in Taiwan. Im not sure I believe that but perhaps its true cus ive been abusing this hub for quite a while now, riding trials 5-6 times a week. its still holding up well while some other brands have given up after just a few weeks.

[@RKIMDRUM]

@@StephenGinman I personally use I9 hydra in my bafang moded bbshd (1400ish Watts peak and close to 1300ish watt continuous) and it's holding for more than two years of use but Rujixu's claim about that it is same factory as I9 is wrong because I9 products are all made in Nashville USA

Hello, these bushings are still alive, I was thinking of taking these for myself

How is your review? My riding style is also a trial riding style, and I use a lot of pedal kicks

[@ReneDavilla]

hi im interested in this hub can you open your bike and see the bearing? sabi kasi nung isang comment wag daw ito bilin mahirap daw makakita ng bearing ng hub na to

[@user-budgetmeal]

Is your hubd still ok sir?

[@StephenGinman]

oo solid na solid..

[@user-budgetmeal]

Kasing lakas ba Yan ng speedone sniper sir?

[@StephenGinman]

@@user-budgetmeal Di ako sure since di ko pa naTry ang SpeedOne. Pero mi kasama akong trials rider na naka sira na ng speedone. Kaya for trials use, out na ang speedone.

Good day Stephen, I want to ask you something about this model on the Hub Is this model of good quality, and is the sound too loud? I need such a head that makes a lot more noise and strong, I have an ARC 09 head with 6 Pawls and this model has 9 Pawls, so we are wondering if this model is perhaps one of the Bike Hub that has a high lodest in decibel measurements to create a lot of noise - that Loud I'm also curious if you might have had Speedone Sniper Ratchet 150T hubs? If you had it, could you compare which hubs have better and louder sound RUJIXU 9 Pawls and 450Tili Speedone Sniper 150T Ratchet model if you have both models, try them, measure the volume using a mobile application for measuring sound volume in decibels and show it on a video The third question is whether this model can be transformed and put Tru Axle on Rujixy? or does it have to close with a screw? if you can answer these questions Stephen and at the same time I wish you a nice rest of the day bye

[@StephenGinman]

if you want a loud hub, you can achieve that on almost any hub just by adding an additional spring to the pawls, adding a harder spring, or just stretching the spring. Also, remove all internal grease and just apply a few drops of machine oil. grease dampens the sound. While this may degrade your hub faster, its the price to pay for that loudness that youre after.

Update video po sa hubs

[@awodako1799]

2:10 You are rotating it wrong way🤦‍♂🤦‍♂

[@StephenGinman]

rotated it the other way around as well, just wasnt a part of this clip. Thank you for noticing it..

[@awodako1799]

@@StephenGinman yeah, you don't need a string just rotate and push hard

[@StephenGinman]

@@awodako1799 it should be that but just isnt. tried it myself. others who reviewed this hub also found the same issue.

[@helterskelter416]

that many clicks means lots of smaller, weaker, teeth on the gear. gonna wear down a lot faster and fail, wouldn't be surprised if it slips teeth even new. also, that much ratcheting noise would drive me insane while riding lol

[@JIBBING_1980S]

Industry nine hydra has launch years ago, typical dumb broke rider statement

[@eh.6761]

thats the design of the i9 hydra, but with 6 pawls 2 teeth. their clicks are very small but lasts long

[@eh.6761]

you only really need to grease it

[@lUNA4JOY]

​@@eh.6761This hub we recommend is long lasting and durable and is it good for you?

[@uriellemus2452]

Lol 😂😂 i have 1 year with this hubs doing hard enduro, and no problems , you 🤡🤡🤡

[@Peo_Sahlin]

The construction of this hub is just stupid and the engineers responsible of it are idiots. But I guess it will fool someone. 😂🤣😂

[@Yoda-em5mt]

I like your straight up opinion apart from the rolling resistance while coasting why do you think its stupid . Steel hg freehub body good , 6802 bearings easily available ie skf , stupid amount of pauls maybe . The do or die for me is. Is the drive ring on a decent course thread or some wimpy fine thread like hope curious on your opinion.
