Using this Chris King Boost Rear Hub is straightforward. First, make sure your bike is compatible with the 12 x 148mm 'BOOST' axle standard. Install the hub following your bike's manual or get a professional to do it if you're not confident. When riding on rough trails, the hub's heavy - duty seals will protect it from mud and water, but it's still a good idea to avoid deep puddles and excessive dirt.

If you notice any strange noises or reduced performance, it might be time for a more thorough inspection.
