The 2.0mm thread diameter ensures compatibility with hubs featuring a 2.5mm or larger spoke hole, providing secure attachment and reliable tensioning. The single J-bend design simplifies installation and maintenance, while the black finish offers a sleek, non-reflective aesthetic suitable for modern, aggressive bike styles.
