adamtrials Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 (edited) hey, the other day i saw a topic about silent hubs, but nowhere in in there did it say where to get one. are they still made? (the cheap ones) Im looking to put one on an xc type bike im going to build so dont care about the strength issues. ( i want the bike to be a bit different, its gonna have my homemade lefty fork and a few other ideas of mine ) EDIT - Whoops i meant silent freewheel hubs lol Edited September 15, 2005 by adamtrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Shimano and True Precision make them. They're heavy. Why do you want one on your XC bike? I don't think Shimano make their silent clutch hubs anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamtrials Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 didnt realise they were heavy. just thought it might be a cool thing to have, seeing as how the rest of the bike is pretty unconventional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 They have gone the way of the DoDo. You might be lucky if a shop has a spare one kicking about hidden in a big pile of old innertubes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Try eBay. There's one on there that's in America but he does ship to the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shovel Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 shimano used to make them, but they're useless. thats why they used to make them and they don't still make them, save up and get something decent like a pro 2 trials or a king Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
