As title rims get good reviews built on hope hubs.
But what are full wheels like ie stans hubs etc
Also are parts/bearings easily available and easy to change
I found the bearings nice and easy to change but was also disappointed that they were rough with relatively little use. The seal on the freehub is a very simple rubber lip that works well when it's clean but I think the performance tails off pretty quickly causing drag and letting water in.
The adaptors and the front hub are only held in by orings so do fall out of loose wheels.
The only slight advantage over hopes for me is the quicker engagement. I would probably save the (considerable) money and get hope hubs if I had the same choice again.
Easy to service but not great quality in my experience.
I've not had any problems with my first set and have just build up another pair
They are lighter than hope but only in black
I've yet to need any spares but the Paligap website lists all the bits
Any one else?
Ive had a set for over a year now - still on the original bearings, and running well.
just converted the front to 15mm bolt through - and that was hassle free
yeah.....
felt a bit cheap to me....
and looks suspiciously like superstar wheels...
