Why should I run RPM Cyclone Front Wheel Hubs?
The RPM Cyclone front wheel hubs have tapered bearings allowing the front wheel to take increased side load into corners. A ball bearing system is designed for the up-down or axial load, but when executing a turn, the side load forces the ball bearing off track and eventually they wear out and seize or blow up. On typical OEM installations the load exerted on the bearings is not evenly shared from the inside to outside ball bearing so only one bearing is taking the full force of the load, pushing the working ball bearing off track and increasing the threat of blowing or seizing a bearing. Since tapered bearings rest in a race, at an angle opposing the angle of the opposite bearing and race, they are designed to evenly distribute the load between the bearings resulting in a much stronger product.
The RPM Cyclone tapered bearing system also allows the hub to spin easier on the spindle and gives you the ability to adjust the bearings, robbing less horse power than worn ball bearings. These hubs are CNC machined from 6061 billet aluminum, come with bearings, seals, bullet style speed studs, nyloc lug nuts, and are fully serviceable.

BEWARE: Other axle manufacturers will replace a broken axle once for free, but then charge nearly $200 PER REPLACEMENT thereafter - not RPM! No doubt about it - we have the best warranty available anywhere in the industry.
What is a "hard" chromed finish?
Dominator II axles are hard chromed for a longer lasting shine than chrome plating that can often times flake off and leave a copper coloring underneath it over time.
Will the Dominator II axle fit all my stock components?
Yes!
What's the difference between the standard hub and the race hub on the Dominator II axle?
The most common problem with aluminum sprocket hubs are the splines holding up to the horse power delivered to the axle. The standard hub is made from a 6061-T6 aluminum (The same as other manufactures of axles and hubs) and is good for stock motor's and may last 3 to 4 race seasons. The race hub is more robust and is made from a 7075 aircraft grade aluminum with a higher yield strength. It is preferred when using highly modified engines and has a much longer life in any application. It also has a mounting surface for an optional sprocket/chain guard. It comes with new mounting hardware needed for the thicker hub. It is used heavily in the pro racing circuit.
