thats an 06 shell on the picture, no "power bulge" as there now known on the 07's

they'l replace it for an 07 shell for you

Thought it was a 06 but for some reason thought it looked slightly like a 07. Just not seen pics of them both in a while i supose.

How many builds has that hub had?

Matt Rushton

I'm pretty sure its just the one build. jonny had been doing some monster gaps all day, it decided to break when he put the power down for doing a roughly 7 foot step-up gap.

It is an 06 hub though so hopefully they'll sort it out for free... and i'll have the pleasure of building it back up :rolleyes:

Yeah when I broke myne it was the first day Of having it on a new rim and they said it is a common cause for them breaking.

Anyway they should sort it out.

Better to be safe than sorry? If I was you and I'd had the hub as long as that and had loads of different builds, I'd wanna get a new shell on there as soon as poss!!!! Nothing really happened when it broke, I put all my power down into a gap up, just felt like the hub skipped... I didn't go over the bars but thank god it did it then rather attempting a large drop gap, thank god it didn't happen earlier in the day when I was trying a 8ft 9 level gap :|

Oh and, if you weight 14 stone and are putting all that into everything, going bigger and using more force in everything somethings gonna brake? :P

I love my hope pro 2 but as in one of my post a few weeks back I uploaded a pic of the bearings in the free hub body, they had turned to a pillar of salt cos they was stearing at the devil

Haha mint, I shall look out for the topic, I rang hope today, they were completely fine about it! told me to send it right back so they can have a look :)

Will let you know how I get on :D

Shit dude, you're certainly bashing lately!

Hope should sort you out no problem though, and (I'm pretty sure that's an '06, right?) will more than likely upgrade it to an '07 shell for you while they're at it :)

I sent mine back with ratchet problem, said on the slip new hubshell and bits, they didnt even change the hubshell...

Good company yes, but didnt do what they said tehy did so make sure you check when you get stuff back people!

Just noticed what ash said, did they f**k as change mine, if they did, they gave me another 06 one, bastards!

getting rid soon anyway for a nice black iso king. Umm
