For those of you who still like training outdoors, there’s the new PowerTap G4 Disc rear hub that adds massive compatibility. It’s available with 142 thru, 148 Boost thru and QR axles to work with any type of disc brake bike – road, mountain, cyclocross or gravel.

They also switched to centerlock rotor so they can use a standard rotor, no longer requiring the proprietary 6-bolt rotor from the G3.

It’s an all-new design that improves things to 1.5% accuracy, and has a new transmitter with magnetic charging port. They’ll have it with an Shimano 11s and XD-R Driver freehub bodies, and eventually MicroSpline for the new XTR. Price is $TBD, available early 2019. The G3 may stay in the line for a while, but will eventually be phased out. This purple color is mainly for athletes to draw attention to it, but it’ll sell in a standard black color.

That's good feedback, thanks both.
Are the any rumours about the price of the forthcoming G4 hub? Will it be higher or lower? Worth waiting for?
