I am going to be buying a Koxx One Hub and cranks from renegade and I am
also going to be visiting my brother in Calgary where he is friends
with the owners of a company that does powder coating.

I was wondering what I would have to do with the hub to prepare it for
powder coating and generaly info on doing this.

Thanks

I would think you *wouldn't* want it powder coated on the splines or
where the bolt goes in at either end. Can you just tape those parts
off? i have no idea about powder coating 😕

Talk to the shop-owner if he(or she) can solve the fact that you don't
want the splines coated..

And i don't know if it should be a problem wiht the spoke-holes!

Give it a clean and a degrease then put some masking tape over the
splines. That's about it really.

The spoke holes would definitely have to be masked somehow, but to do
so sounds like quite a challenge! It might be easier to powdercoat the
holes and drill them out afterwards, but I'm no pro... ask a pro for
sure, this sounds like a very tedious task!

Nah, the spoke holes would be fine. It isn't such a precise fit where
the .002mm of powdercoat would get in the way.
