  • Anyone else with 20mm Hope Evo hubs that keep letting water in?

    I got a really nice build from Merlin 3 weeks back. Not having had a 20mm front before though I was surprised at the lack of sealing (in comparison to previous Hope QR hubs).

    Anyway I’ve dried them out twice already but they’re already feeling gritty. I popped to covers off the bearings today and the disk side has a grey sludge in there – the DS has a clean looking blue grease.

    Have I got a duffer or anyone know if there’s something I can do to improve things?

    Had my new ones on for the last three wet weeks or so will also check them out over the next few days.

    Cheers Scamper! I suspect I might be sending them back – hopefully there is just some seal or something missing from mine.
