Need a new set of hubs. Had the last set of DT240s for about 7 years. Do I need to look anywhere else or has some big innovation hit the hub market?
New Hope Pro 2 hubs coming out soon:

DT for me- lightweight, very reliable, better sealed than most, all that good stuff. Upgradable to 36 points if you care (I upgraded one of mine, it seems to be a car park difference, barely aware of it when riding so won't be doing the others) Nothing wrong with Hope now that they've redesigned the axles and fixed the pawl springs but they're solid, they're not amazing.
DT 350 gives it a very good run, same internals, few grams difference in weight in centrelock forms and for half the money. Bit of a sleeper hub me thinks!
Ooh i'm going to give both those suggestions a look. 350's and new Pro 2
If it helps, I'm running a 350 rear hub and its been faultless; quick pick up and refreshingly quiet 🙂
