The present disclosure teaches a hub assembly designed to retain its pin and spring upon manipulation without being coupled to a wheel. The hub assembly includes a retainer housing, retaining member, biasing element, and restraining element. The retainer housing includes a wheel mounting sleeve and pin sleeve. The wheel mounting sleeve includes an axle bore to receive an axle and is inserted within the wheel sleeve bore. The pin sleeve includes a first end fluidly communicating with the sleeve bore, and a conduit therebetween. The retaining member, disposed within the conduit, operatively engages an axle groove and includes a lip wider than a first end shoulder to prevent the retaining member from exiting the first end. The biasing element, disposed within the conduit, biases the retaining member towards the axle bore. The restraining element is configured to prevent the retaining member from exiting the second end. |
