Hiya - I'm building (getting built) some bling-ish enduro wheels and wondering what hub choices are out there.
What decent kit do you suggest other that the default Hopes?
Thanks.
Kings, Industry 9, Onyx, Extralight, Tune?
Personally, some DT Swiss 240's for me.
American Classic. I Like mine.
Tune come in pretty colours. Been impressed with the road ones, old ones were a bit fragile and shit.
Dt240 for understated reliability.
CarbonTi?
Depends on your budget they can get very pricey.
I like the AC steel edged splines on the ally freehub. I haven't got a set, I just like the solution. Right material in the right places.
I like the stans 3.0 hubs ive got but the Dt or ac ones I've also got all work fine.
My Dt 240 are prob my favourite as the bearings seem to last the longest but you do need a special tool for the rear hub to change one of the bearings. But that beating seems to outlast the others 3 times
TBH Hope may or may not be perfect (not seen one break in a while), but the near instant turnaround when they do is enough to have me sold on them for life.
DT 240s are the default for me now.
thanks guys.
