Yes, you can run pegs on this hub. And yes, this has a hollow 14mm axle aswell.
( I used to run these same hubs and they run really well.)

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Unfortunately the only part that you can upgrade to titanium on this hub is the bolts, you cannot upgrade the axle on this hub as it is a female axle.

answer 3
Hi there buddy, this hub would fit perfectly fine. I was running this hub for about 4 years and it lasts ages. The bearings are fairly loud when they are brand new, but after a while they 'bed in'.

Hope this helps.

answer 2
Hi there, generally, female axles tend to be stronger, and if you wear down your nuts, you can simply replace them, that tends to be the general idea of a female hub. Male hubs tend to be slightly heavier with a one piece axle. Because their lighter, they tend not be as strong.

And this will also fit on your mongoose chamber perfectly fine.

Hope this helps.

answer 3
A male axle will have a threaded axle with a nut and a female will have a internal thread with a bolt. Yes these hubs will fit your mongoose.

This depends on the rim and lacing type. There is a special calculator here:

Depends on what rim you are building it on to

Hub flanges vary on different hubs as do rims so there is never a standard size spoke

Depends on what hub you choose and how many spokes it takes. I would suggest at looking into getting the same hub as you have now if you can because it saves changing the spokes etc.
