Maladie Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Hey there, I need a temporary hub replacement as my Hope bulb/XC/Pro2 is playing up alot. Basically, it skips like a mother******, has a big crack on the shell, and is just coming to the end of it's life. I wanted to know what you'll thought of the Halo Spin Doctor, it's not a very expensive hub, i know, but whats it like for the price? Is it quiet / loud? Strong / shite?

Stanners Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Is it quiet / loudish - Sounds good so ive heard Strong / shite - Not for trials. Ive heard them go on people who just use them for dirt jump who havn't had them that long - Get a Pro2 Trials, its so worth it in the long run, I used to run xc but they just don't last long enough. My pro2 recently cracked but thats after 2 years use and hope replaced it for free. Send the xc back on warenty and start savin the pennies. (Also try and stay clear of using hope bulbs for trials cause they feck up easily as well Hope this helps. Rob Edit: this is for trials right? lol Edited June 20, 2010 by Stanners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Edit: this is for trials right? lol Erm it's not actually, sorry, forgot to mention that and i am getting a pro2 trials wheel, this is just a temporary hub while i save for a more decent wheel. Is it worth it for the measely £40? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanners Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Maybe if its temp. Nuke proof generator. Wait a sec and ill see how much they are before i make a fool out of myself, Yeah go for the spin docter lol. If its temp why not. I take it youve read the reveiws on chain reaction cycles. Look on ebay as well - Some guy round the corner from you might have cheapy hope xc lying around? Edited June 20, 2010 by Stanners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey1991 Posted June 21, 2010 Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 Spin doctors weak? Ha ha you must be joking right? They're bullet proof hubs, but they have about 4 engagements so not the best for trials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
