Question?

not to sound harsh but.....

why would they make a mod hub? i know it would/could be quite popular.

but the "trials" side of hope is probably less than 2% of their WHOLE buisiness. i do agree though it would be great for them to do a "mod" hub, as alot of the mod stock frames would use it too. but they are so busy with everything else :(

i was just going to say.

you could possibly modify one, but i suppose no one will want to buy a £120/130 and cut and shut it :(lol.

i think people want the Pro2 T in a 20" version because of the price, as opposed to Profile @ £170.00 and king at £369...........and the rest. :lol:

why do the distributors not start making a 20" with 135mm back end? ;) good proposition???? then you can run ANY hub you want.

arrrh well simtra are in the process of doing so they got a proto which there developing with 135spaceing and horizontal dropouts. But as much as a great idea it is as mod chain tension is poo i dont think mod riders will take to it. As so many will think about how they will have to buy new rear hubs and a mech they will bang.

ummmm do you mean vertical drop outs?

A hope hub for mods would be sweet, but i don't think i would sell my profile and rebuild wheel just to run one :mellow:
