dezmtber Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Put the link up dez, I can't seem to find it its all on the dealer site.its a 6 bolt cog mount i wonder if the trial freehub would fit this hub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezmtber Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 just phoned hope to check whats happening regards freehub options for now the fixie hub will come with a disc mount to be used as a disc mount or fixed cog mount. and on the drive side a 6 bolt freehub fitting that will accept a 15t 6 bolt cog. they say the hubs sould be in stock by the end of feb or earliy march. i have asked if they could find out if the ss/trial freehub would fit the fixiee hub so we can use a 12t shimano style cog for trials.

bing Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 They are going to miss out on a decent bit of business by not doing a 12t version for trials riders. I'd buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Really not sure about that as the use of profile hubs / king bmx hubs seems significantly lower than yesteryear! the influx of reasonably reliable FFWs seems to have taken over....

bing Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I'd rather have a hope hub that's reliable and got a decent warranty over a freewheel any day. That said I have just another nearly new echo sl........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King hubs are over £300 new Profiles are only available in 36h which is damn hard to find in mod rims now. Hopes are cheap and strong as f**k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 12t driver would not be a bad move for them at all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezmtber Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Since changing from ffw to a hope hub. I don't think i could run anything else, its just been such a relable setup. Though i cant really say ffw setups are not was good as i have only used tensile and echo ffws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aener Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) You guys don't seem to realize how small a sport trials is. The fact they ever made anything trials-specific is impressive enough - they have every right not to. They probably sell more 135mm hubs in a day than they would 116mm hubs with a 12 tooth driver in their entire lifespan. It would not be "a good chunk of business" - it would be about ten hubs a year I imagine they consider breaking into the BMX market something of a gamble at any rate, and are likely relying on dirt jumpers etc. to make up the sales, and BMX is enormous compared to trials. If you really want one, get the 9 tooth model and run a 13 or 14 tooth sprocket on your cranks. (The equivalent to 18:12 is 13.5:9, so you'd have to go one way or the other.) [Edit: Or the 15t model and a 22t or 23t sprocket.] If you don't want to risk that, just wait a while. I'm pretty sure I'll end up doing exactly that when they come out so you can use me as a guinea pig Edited February 12, 2014 by aener 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I just wish they made a small cassette body so you could run 12t,13t,14t,15t etc. Would make more sense to dirt jumpers/race bmxers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aener Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I won't let you, because you'll die when the chain snaps first time you pedal hard I suddenly thought about that and got a sneaky little edit in there just before you posted 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 In that case you should just get a BMX. Fo' zerius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
