Just a heads up if you're considering the Fly Magneto Hub (female axle version. Don't know about the male axle version). Don't buy it. It sucks. WHy? Cos once you tighten the axle bolt to your frame, you can't crankflip it. The driver binds too much. My buddy has the same issue with his Magneto too. I guess it's ok if you ride trails and do lots of tricks where you take your feet off the pedals and don't want the cranks to move.
Anybody come up with a fix? Fly aren't replying to my msgs.

Sounds amazing to me lol.
Sacrifice 1 mediocre trick to make every other trick where my feet leave the pedals easier?
Sign me up.
it uses magnets for engagement? thats shweeet. Ruben flavored biking is my favorite. for easy crankflips, just remove chain to destroy shins.
I bought mine when it first came out (famale version) and emmdiatley developed a slight wobble. I had to ship the hub to Spain and have Fly replace it. Rode it for about 1year and then missed a grind a on rail and totally bent the axle/nut and never fixed it. sitting in a junk part box. I wouldn’t buy it again, cool idea though.
Do ET’s instead! problem solved!
The male hub works great, and I crank flip daily, best hub I’ve owned
