DT
Do Royce do a 20mm front hub?
Are the DT's no known to crack on the flange?
Anyone used Hadley hubs?
Anyone else with anything to add?
stu the lower DT used to be, but the 240 is a great hub, only issue/problem is bearings can't knock them in yourself without the tool which i think is a few quid tbh (£35+).
i have a friend with hadley and he loves them buy says they require a lot of looking after but they look so good and sound good, pickup is superfast (nearly as fast as 240's)
another mate has burgtec and they are trashed and falling to pieces.. overpriced tat.
* crosses Burgtec off the list*
I've heard nukeproof are very good, not had them myself but a mate has trashed hope, but nukeproof live on! howcome NOT HOPE btw? apart from my last sentence? Any movement on the DJ forks?
[url= http://www.justridingalong.com/shop.php?pid=481&product=113&jras=gtf6rv ]American Classic[/url]? Light and just a little bit clicky. 20mm fronts & 135 x 10 rear too.
i was going to say nukeproof ones too, been hearing good things about them but couldn't find a 10mm version for stu, maybe i'm being blind.
hmmmm, good point, I can't find 10mm either, just assumed they did one. GUessing Stu means a 10mm bolt through rather than jsut a normal 10mm QR hub?
I've had a few problems with the pro2's and I'm not keen on repeating that experience.( have a pair of bulbs that refuse to die though)
Can't drop the price any more on the fork mate.
mmmm. Col has some nukeproofs in stock for the right money.
Ringle are awesome sounding and bombproof.
stu i've read/heard good things about those nukeproof jobs.. i know a 19st guy who breaks everything says he can't believe how good they are..
I have some Hadley hubs, which are excellent. Very smooth, well-sealed and great pick-up! However, last time I checked, they still didn't have a website so information on how to service them etc. is quite difficult to come by.
Hunt down some bulbs, i did recently, cheaper than pro11's.
Those tectnic (sp) ones in the CRC flood sale sound ok.
Ringle are nice.
Use the bulbs, I still have mine in daily use after 10 years.
£70 hope bulb rear?

What EIASF failed to mention is that they need to be super strong to cope with the weight of his on board WOK.
Failing all of the above you could always wait and see if Superstar sponcer SSEC 2010 and take your chance of winning some 🙂
the only chance taken would be riding the buggers after sheldon!!
I've some Atomlab ones that refuse to die, and seem to built like brick outhouses. Probably straight out of some Taiwanese Catalogue, but they work and they're not stupid money.

i won't be riding with all those attention whores. 😉
True, you've got to get an entry first 🙁
I mullered one DT, but have one on the Enduro now and it seems to be pretty tidy.
The custom drilled Hopes on my NRS are peachy as a peachy thing though, so I would ask why not Hope? EDIT - Reads comments above properly!
Shame to hear you've had probs with 'em!

I'll have a word with the organisers then.
Nukeproof are idestructable apart from the bearings. My rear hub needed new ones after 6 months. fortunately hotwheels did me a half price set, as they're usually £35.

Doubt if they'd listen to you mate they're odd!

i know mate.
That Bulb Stiff have in looks favourite ATM.
Just need to find a front Bulb to go with it now.
stu they only had a couple in when i asked (i wanted a 36 hole one)
that bulb stif has in is quite cheap but has a steel freehub, not Ti like some did/do
(I'm not slagging that off - I bought 2 last week - but it puts the cheapness into context a bit)
