Especially for UK environment? Or choose hope hubs instead from their website for extra about $200?

Personal reviews would be very helpful. Cheers.

I've had some road ones for a few months - several hundred miles only, but often wet ones. No bother as yet but I doubt that's very helpful

Fairly happy with two pairs of Novatech road hubs so far (c.4000 miles on the one pair) - bought hubs from http://www.bdopcycling.com/ myself...

Can't comment specifically but agree in general with this. OnOne/PlanetX own brand stuff is, if I'm not mistaken.

Doesn't mean they're the exact same hubs mind, they do a range. I'd be wondering about weight, no point in putting expensive lightweight rims on a beefy hub, and a lot of theirs ain't light.
