SON 28 Dynamo Hub – 12mm Thru-Axle (Centerlock)
Built for adventure, bikepacking, and mountain biking, the SON 28 Dynamo Hub is the ultimate power source for riders who venture far beyond paved roads. Designed around Schmidt's legendary SON 28 internals, this hub delivers dependable lighting and charging performance even at low speeds, making it ideal for steep climbs, technical terrain, and fully loaded touring setups.
Compared to the SONdelux, the SON 28 produces more power at lower speeds, ensuring brighter lights when conditions are slow and demanding. The tradeoff is a slight increase in rolling resistance—well worth it for riders who prioritize reliable illumination and charging capability in remote environments.
Precision-engineered in Germany, the SON 28 features a durable anodized black finish, Centerlock disc compatibility, and a 12mm thru-axle design for modern mountain and adventure bikes. Backed by Schmidt's renowned craftsmanship and a 5-year warranty, it's a dynamo hub built to last for years of exploration.
