Abstract:
An electronic automatically decoupling hub assembly is disclosed herein. The assembly has an axle and a hub shell rotationally positioned about the axle. A controller provides automatic activation/deactivation signals to an inductor. The assembly has a bearing rotationally positioned about the axle and a ratchet ring, having a plurality of teeth, rotationally positioned about the bearing. One or more pawls are provided to engage with at least some of the teeth of the ratchet ring and a seal is used to contain the pawls within the assembly. A cassette body assembly is coupled with the ratchet ring and an end cap is used to prevent a contaminant from entering into the decoupling hub assembly.
