J Trials 31 Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I had one on my old wheel. Pretty good I thought. Go for it, that's a pretty good price anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psycholist Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 A friend of mine had the ratchet ring in his Echo freehub come loose and spin forward under power - the hub was about 6 months old. The warranty replacement is still going strong, but that hasn't got to the 6 month mark yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Woodhouse Posted August 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Thanks to everyone commenting so far, also if people could recommend a freehub they think is good that would be great.Many thanks, Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Profile, King, Pro2 (there will be a mod version at some point).Really are worth the money. Rear brake and freehub/wheel are two components where you shouldn't settle for second best. If they go wrong on a gap, drop etc... you're in trouble. Save up for a bit longer or look second hand, i got my king for £70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sstein Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 A friend of mine had the ratchet ring in his Echo freehub come loose and spin forward under power - the hub was about 6 months old. The warranty replacement is still going strong, but that hasn't got to the 6 month mark yet.had a czar (basically same hub) that developed the same problem after only a month of riding though. steer clear of 'em!
