A: It connects the drive wheel to the crank hub, ensuring the wheel rotates smoothly and stays securely in place during spinning.Q: The packaging says “for all Ashford spinning wheels.” Does it really fit every model?
Q: How do I know if my wheel needs a hub pin?
A: If your wheel’s drive wheel is connected to the crank via a visible steel pin or hole (often tapped into place), then yes — this pin is used. If your drive wheel appears glued or permanently attached with no visible pin, your wheel may not require it.
Q: Is this an official Ashford part?
A: Yes, this is a genuine Ashford-manufactured hub pin, made to match original factory specifications.
Q: Is it difficult to install?
A: No. Align the hub and crank hole, then gently tap the pin into place using a rubber or wooden mallet. It should fit snugly without forcing.
Q: Should I keep a spare?
A: Yes! If you ever remove your drive wheel for maintenance or shipping, it's smart to have a backup pin on hand in case the original is lost or damaged.
