  • Shimano Di2 electronic shifting — precise actuation under load
  • Approved for Shimano E-bike and non-E-bike use

Internal Gear Technology

The Alfine S7051-8 uses Shimano's Inter-8 planetary gear system housed in a sealed aluminium shell. The improved internal structure delivers higher shifting performance even under the elevated chain tension produced by E-bike motors, making it a natural fit for assisted commuter and cargo builds. All gear changes happen electronically via Di2, with no mechanical cables to stretch or corrode.

Disc Brake Integration

The hub features a Centre Lock rotor interface and includes a rotor mount cover. A built-in Power Modulator provides easy, progressive braking control. The 135mm over-locknut dimension (O.L.D.) suits standard rear dropout spacing on city, hybrid, and commuter frames.
