Drivetrain & speeds
Speeds, cassettes, freehub bodies (HG, XD, Microspline), chains and UDH. What mixes with what, and what doesn't.
Available · 13 entries →The bike industry confuses you on purpose. That ends here.
Every brand rebrands the same physics with a new name —BB30, Boost, Microspline, UDH— to sell you that its part is unique and essential. It almost never is. BikeLab-pedia translates that marketing fog into three answers anyone understands: what you have, what fits it, and what to do.
We don't recycle Wikipedia. Every entry carries the exact measurement, the mistake almost nobody corrects, and the data that comes from opening the part on the bench — not from a catalog. If a bearing corrodes differently on the South American coast, we know because we saw it.
Nobody documents hundreds of standards without mastering the hardware. We don't write to impress: we write so that the next time you wonder —"will this fit my bike?"— the answer is here, in your language, with nothing to sell you.
Stop guessing. Start knowing.
