rav Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) I have just got the hub today.The weight (includes bolts and washers) is 126g.126g is a bit heavy for that price.SOUL EDGE 70GBPBoplight 33GBPHope Pro 2 xx GBP Edited March 19, 2008 by rav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 126g is a bit heavy for that price.Well, the hub alone is 102g.All the hubs you have posted Rav are weighed without any method of attaching them to the bike, so you'd need to add at least 24g to the total weight? I'm not sure of the axle design of the Soul hub, but the Hope and Boplight require skewers which are much heavier than bolts anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 i ordered ti bolts with mine plus its being built on 26" 28hole dob rim.. booyah!The dob rims come in 28h as well? Where did you get it from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

totaltrials Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Yes, dob rims come in 28H.Bummer. I'm going to boot you Adam . I'll stick with my bodged wheel build.They are ridiculously light, it's worth using ti bolts too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Adam or whoever knows it: what's the spoke length I'll need for that hub on a 28h dob 26" rim, 3x? I measured the old tryall disc hub to be able to calculate the spoke lengths... maybe the dimensions of the hub haven't changed and they just drilled the old one?

AdamR28 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 The old dimensions are close enough not to make a difference Strange about the 28h rims - they're not on my price list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor the basher. Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Dob rims in 28h ? so basically i spend 60 quid on a hub i didnt need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
