    not overly enamoured with my pro 2 evo’s, the bearing life is terrible and the noise of the 40t is just annoyingly loud. pro 2’s seemed to have longer lasting bearings. Not a great fan of cup and cone either, if you leave it too long the cup gets pitted.

    Never strip Shimano hubs again – grease nipple mod (clicky link below). 5+ years and never touched, original freehub also.
    Only problem is not being able to easily swop between axle standards.
