Currently running the hope pro 2 since building a bike again

 

great hub but I’ve immediately noticed the lack of enragements

spoke to a few people that are saying the pro4 rip out ratchet rings and pro 5 skip alot

 

i9 are meant to be decent in all aspects but now brilliant

 

BUT they have just brought out a hydra 2

 

anyone used it? Has 3 teeth per pawl which is effectively tripling the grab when it engages 

its designed for emtb so will be to take high torque

 

been out the scene for along time so seeing peoples opinions and if I’ve missed any other reliable options?

Most reliable hub I've had since getting back into street trials just over a couple of years ago is the TMS hub.

I've had a Pro5 and can concur it likes to skip but is the most free spinning.

I'm running an I9 just now, it skips now and then but overall very good and the amount of engagement points is awesome.

But saying that, I will be putting my I9 up for sale next week and going back to my TMS hub. Mainly to free up a bit of cash for my upcoming house extension.
