Used Product For 3 Months Strengths you can get the spindle in steel for strength Weaknesses none Similar Products Used chris king Review this hope hub is the best product i have spent so much money on for so much quality. even if you land hard on it, it takes it. i have never ridden such a nice hub as this one. if you get the rear hub in steel you save alot of money than you would if it was in aluminium. the good thing is that you can get spare parts for it, for example bearing, spindle etc.

Used Product For 2 Years or more Strengths Unbrakable shell, strong wheel build, light. warrantee & customer service. Weaknesses Springs deform, paws easily get damaged, ratchit teeth die every 4 months and require sending back to hope Similar Products Used XC Review Brilliant hub for the price, sound nice when freewheeling, ultra strong but once the freehub misses, its on it way towards a trip back to hope for ratchit replacment! Makes a horrible BANG when it misses, kinda like a chain snapping and if you are about to go big, it scares the living B-Jesus out of ya!

Used Product For 1 Year Strengths good looks, lots of colour choices Weaknesses cheap bearings die within a couple of months Similar Products Used chris king ISO, LX, XT, hadley, Review these are prbably the best value for money hubs on the market. the engagement is pretty good (48 engagement points) and the respectable weight make it an easy buy over any shimano hub. although the bearings in my set decided to die after a couple of months this however isnt a huge problem seeing as they are cartridge style units - pop em out and pop em in. j
