Do you run Madera or Profile Racing front hubs, but you want a hub guard that is plastic? Well, Madera have just released their new C4 plastic hub guard that fits Madera’s Pilot front hub and Profile Racing’s Mini, elite and Totem front hubs. This guard is made from CNC Machined Delrin right here in the United States and simply slides onto your hub over your cones. You do need to be running the new cones that Profile and Madera use with knurling for it to fit properly though!
The C4 Hub Guard is available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Madera worldwide for around $14.99. You can also pick up the hub guard direct from the Profile Racing webstore for $16.99. The cone washer with the knurling is available for $6.50. Check out photos below!
The C4 hub guard is CNC machined from Delrin right here in the U.S.A. Curious what Delrin is? Well, here’s what we found online…
“Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal,[1] polyacetal and polyformaldehyde, is an engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction and excellent dimensional stability. As with many other synthetic polymers, it is produced by different chemical firms with slightly different formulas and sold variously by such names as Delrin, Celcon, Ramtal, Duracon, Kepital and Hostaform.”

This is the cone washer with the knurling washer that you need for it to fit properly. Is your hub missing that? Make sure you order one with the guard.
