The Rack Adapter is a simple piece of hardware that adds threaded mounting posts to our brake pivots. Small front or rear racks can mount to these posts for a strong connection and integrated appearance.

Rack Adapters replace the brake bolts that threads into the center of Paul's brake pivots. The threaded posts that extend from them have 5mm threads and include a nylock nut.

Installation and spring adjustment is the same as with the original brake pivot hardware, except that a 9/16 inch wrench is used in place of a 5mm hex wrench for tightening the pivot.

Please note that Paul Components Rack Adapters are not compatible with Racer or Racer M brakes.

Each Axle Kit contains an axle, Adjuster Ring, Axle Nut or Axle plug, and optional Axle Spacer. With the addition of a pair of Bearings and Axle Bolts, you'll have everything you need to fully overhaul a hub.

Bolt-On front axles have threaded ends to accept Axle Bolts, but the bolts are not included. Bolt-On rear axles do not include Axle Bolts.

This kit is for rear High Flange Track hub.

100% Pure Crank from Paul Component Engineering. Strong, elegant & classy.

Paul Components cranks take advantage of the narrower chain stays found on road frames, and the 44mm chainline of Paul Components High Flange hubs.

The Paul components Royal Flush Crankset (black) use a specially designed interlocking chain ring/crank interface. Four 7075 aluminium chain ring bolts with T25 Torx heads bolt through the chain ring and into the reinforced spider on the crank arm.

The crank arms are machined from 2024 aluminium, a very strong and stiff material and are available with 165mm arms.

The chain rings are machined out of 6.3mm thick aluminium plate; very sturdy. Wider teeth designed only to work with 1⁄8” chains which prolongs their life span.

Miss thumb shifters? Converting a drop bar bike to flat bars? These easily transform bar end (aka barcon or TT) shifters into thumb shifters. The shifters are not included, but are readily available in 8 through 11-speed versions, and many have an option for friction-shifting.

Thumbies bring back the thumb shifting of old, and we think it makes shifting more precise and smoother. These feel much better in our opinion than trigger or twist shifters.

Thumbies have a hinged clamp for an easy installation and fit handlebars with a diameter of 22.2mm or 31.8mm. The 22.2 models fit mountain bike handlebars and the 31.8 mount to the stem clamp area of a drop bar. The clamp is raised up to give clearance for hydraulic brake levers.

They have a shifter mounting boss that fits Shimano bar end shifters and most Shimano downtube shifters.

The Paul Components Tall and Handsome seat post (black) isn’t the lightest seat post ever made, though it may be among the easiest to use and nicest looking.

Like all Paul Components products it’s built to the highest standards for function and ease of use.

The Tall & Handsome has a generous setback of 26mm, perfect for the shorter rails of Brooks saddles. If you do not like setback in your seat post then this may not be your first choice, but if you ride a Brooks saddle that you can't get quite far enough back you'll love this seat post.

The head and shaft are made from a special high strength 2024 aluminium alloy. The shaft is precision ground to 27.2mm and the head is machined separately before being screwed and bonded into the shaft.

The two bolts sit on spherical washers that allow them to pivot and self align to the cradle. The clamp can be adjusted to tilt the saddle's nose up or down with a range of roughly 15 degrees, and precise angle adjustments are made by loosening one screw and tightening the other.

Position is adjusted by loosening both screws an equal amount and moving the saddle. Because of use of two screws slippage is eliminated.

The Paul Components Touring Canti brake (black) is a powerful cantilever brake with a similar design to the Neo-Retro, but with the arms angled upward. This gives the brake a much narrower profile without significantly reducing stopping power.
The narrower profile of the Touring Canti can be desirable if you're riding with large panniers or if your current brakes don't give you enough heel or calf clearance. The arms of the Touring Canti are machined from lightweight 6061 aluminum. Their T-shaped cross section prevents the brake from flexing too much under load. The brake pads mount to slots in the arms that allow for vertical positioning. The toe-in and angle can be fine tuned thanks to the spherical washers on the brake pads' threaded posts.
Like all of Paul Components brakes, the Touring Canti has a sealed pivot mechanism. Rubber seals and a stainless steel bushing keep the brake arms turning smoothly no matter what you're riding through. The spring tension can be adjusted in both pivots to center the brake and to adjust the strength of the return swing.
The Touring Canti comes with pivots pre-greased and with all necessary hardware.
All Paul Component brakes are sold individually.

The Paul Components Track Front Hub (black) is a front hub with large diameter flanges that perfectly matches Paul Components High Flange Rear track hub.

Paul Components machine these hubs from three inch round bars of 6061 aluminium. The hub shells are put through four different machining processes before they go to finishing. The end result is something to be proud of. The wide flanges have six window cutouts in them to save weight and draw on the influence of classic track hubs.

The axle is ground from 7075 aluminium, which has a great strength to weight ratio. The outer lock nut faces are made of knurled steel for a solid grip against dropouts. Quick-release conversion kit available for special order.

Paul Components High Flange hubs use high-fill sealed bearings. Spoke holes are chamfered to reduce stress on the head and elbow of the spoke.

The hub that started all that single speed mountain bike silliness. The Wacky One-speed Rear Device.

When Paul Components first introduced Wacky One-Speed Rear Device (W.O.R.D.), it was the first purpose-built single speed mountain bike hub. That original hub not only set design standards that continue to this day, like a 52mm fixed gear chainline.

When designing this modern version of the WORD, they spread the flanges out as far as possible while leaving room for freewheel threading. This allows the WORD to be built up as a strong dishless wheel. Over the years they’ve also improved upon the original axle and bearing adjustment mechanism.

The WORD comes with special machined axle bolts. The washers are made of brass and have deeply knurled contact faces. This ensures they’ll grip onto dropout faces without marring the frame, yet will still be able to be loosened easily trail side.

The WORD can be easily adjusted with cinch bolt style adjuster ring. Spoke holes are chamfered and the flanges are canted towards the rim to reduce stress on the head and elbow of the spoke.

The Paul Components Word Disc Rear Hub (black) is the first single-speed specific MTB hub ever produced by Paul Components back in 1996. “W.O.R.D.” stood for Wacky One Speed Rear Device, because at a time when most riders had just upgraded from 7 to 8 speeds, the idea of stripping all the derailleurs off of your bike to make a super simple, reliable, harder-to-ride bike seemed like a pretty stubborn and a little crazy idea. Since then it has become a cult classic.

Yes, this hub spins very smoothly due to extremely high tolerance machined bearing bores, high quality user-adjustable sealed cartridge bearings, and a hub shell design that has been refined over years of production and real world abuse to be as light as possible while still withstanding the abuse that the biggest, most reckless riders can put it through.

One of the best things about the latest iteration might be the super-stiff, super-light, flex-free, interchangeable 7075 Alloy axle. In the future, if you switch frames or get a new bike, you can easily change out the existing axle for whichever style of attachment fits your new dropouts.

The Disk WORD hub has freewheel threading on the drive side for standard BMX style freewheels, and a 6 bolt ISO rotor mount. The flanges are canted towards the rim reducing spoke stress and the spoke holes are chamfered to reduce stress on the head and elbow of the spoke.

Paul Components saw a need for high quality 135mm Bolt-On fixed gear hubs, and with their long history and experience making single speed and fixed gear hubs, they knew how to do it right. The Paul Components Word Fixed/Free Hubs are machined 100 percent in-house by Paul in Chico, California. They’re absolutely bomb-proof, very light, easily adjustable, serviceable, and come with our own extra thick stainless steel lockring.
