RobinJI Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 noo.. Dont get a shitmano hub. Who wants to spend ages looking after lame loose ball bearings.I'd really recomend this hub, 18 quid, so cheeper than alot of loose ball bearing hubs, and is identical to the DMR hub that retails at 32.50. As most people will say the bearings in the DMR stuff are pretty decent. And ontop off all that its lighter than a Hope ProII. So yeah, good hub.And yeah, your right, number or intersections is exactly that, so put in 3 for a 3 cross wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bionic Balls Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 for that money..sounds like you'd be better off trying second hand have a look at the classifieds- a shimano freehub just does not last...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
