A hub for partially muscle-powered vehicles, including a hollow hub axle with a cylindrical inner through hole for the passage of a clamping axle, a hub shell rotatably supported relative to the hub axle by two hub bearings, a rotor rotatably supported relative to the hub axle, and a freewheel device with a hub-side freewheel component and a rotor-side freewheel component, each having axial engagement components for engagement with one another. The hub shell is rotatably supported relative to the hub axle in a rotor-side end region by a rotor-side hub bearing, and in an opposite end region of the hub shell by another hub bearing. The hub-side freewheel component is non-rotatably connected with the hub shell. The rotor-side freewheel component is non-rotatably connected with the rotor and is movable in the axial direction relative to the rotor and the hub shell between a freewheel position and an engagement position.

A bicycle free wheel has a first annular body, at least partially ferromagnetic, configured to be rotatable with sprockets of a bicycle and comprising a first crown gear. A second annular body configured to be rotatable with a rear wheel of a bicycle has a second crown gear matching with and facing towards the first crown gear. The first annular body is axially mobile with respect to the second annular body between an engagement condition in which the first crown gear is coupled with the second crown gear and a disengagement condition where they are decoupled. At least one magnetic body is arranged radially externally with respect to the first annular body, so that the first annular body in the disengagement condition is at least partially contained in the axial space occupied by the magnetic body.

A hub assembly for a human-powered vehicle comprises a hub axle, a first rotatable member, a second rotatable member, and a rotation control structure. The rotation control structure couples the first rotatable member to the second rotatable member to transmit a first input rotation of the first rotatable member to the second rotatable member at a first ratio of a first output rotation of the second rotatable member to the first input rotation of the first rotatable member. The rotation control structure couples the second rotatable member to the first rotatable member to transmit a second input rotation of the second rotatable member to the first rotatable member at a second ratio of a second output rotation of the first rotatable member to the second input rotation of the second rotatable member. The second ratio is different from the first ratio. The second ratio is larger than 0.
