hub dimension diagram
PLEASE NOTE: Shimano publishes hub dimensions in a relatively confusing manner on bike.shimano.com. They seem to provide the outside-to-outside flange spacing, and an overall offset of the flanges as a whole. Wheelbuilders are interested in the distance from the midpoint between locknut faces to the middle of the flange (not the inside or outside face). When necessary, I convert Shimano's data into useful spoke calculation dimensions with some simple arithmetic, and factor in 3mm thick hub flanges (an approximation). The formula is to divide spacing by two, add or subtract the overall offset, then subtract half of our assumed 3mm flange thickness. Please check the notes to see if the values for this part are derived from Shimano's published data or actual measurements of a hub specimen. -Karl

NOTE: these dimensions (especially the flange offsets) have not been verified, and several variations can be found on the internet. Someone should measure an actual hub and report back.

10/22/12 -- Dimensions verified on a new SG-8R36 and a new SG-8C31. Both were extremely close to the original numbers, so I didn't change anything. -Karl
