This is the light road offering from Bitex machined out of the superior Aluminum 7075 alloy. 

This rear hub is a concentrate of technology. 

1. It uses a simple easy to service design, built on a light and sturdy 15mm alloy axle

2. It uses a light-weight Al 7075 Freehub which uses the Bitex patented 6 pawls technology working in 2 sets of 3 with an angle offset between the two sets to deliver 48 engagement points per rotation for rapid re-engagement from freewheeling.

3. With the 2:1 technology using 16 holes on the drive side (recommended at 2x crossing) and 8 holes on the non-drive side (recommended radial), a wheel with almost even tension on both sides can be built instead of the very uneven tension generated by the wheel dish on standard wheels with the same number of spokes on both sides.  You get the weight and aerodynamics benefits of a low spoke count wheel, with the strength and stiffness of a higher spoke count wheel. 

4. Uses high-quality Taiwan steel TPI bearings (used by DT Swiss).

Established almost 100 years ago (1923) Bitex is a reputable manufacturer based in Taiwan who has been in business 10 years longer than Campagnolo (1933) and almost as long as Shimano (1921).  

Bitex offers a broad range of well designed high-quality hubs for almost every biking discipline.  Over the last decades, like other quality Taiwanese brands and OEM manufacturers (like Giant, Merida and many others), as the low-end mass bicycle parts business was moving to mainland China, Bitex moved upscale both in its own products and in the products it manufactures on an OEM basis for many well-known brand names in the bicycle industry.  Bitex uses high-quality Taiwanese made TPI bearings which are also used by several well known (and significantly more expensive) hub manufacturers.   We are an official Bitex reseller in our region.
