Joe_Elding Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 My webbrowser blocked the link so i did a little google and this info came up:-Madera is a bi-product of Profile Racing for those who want a quality American made product but are on a budget. The Dexter cassette hub features sealed cartridge bearings, a CNC machined aluminum body and 14mm chromoly axle. The tech feature is that this hub can easily be converted from right to left hand drive within a few minutes by flipping the drive ring in the hub shell and the pawls in the driver. Available in 36 or 48 hole, black only with choice of 1pc. driver size. Weight: 23ozs.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 To be honest, I think I'd probably just pay the extra £30 and buy a proper Profile hub. Those Madeira ones look a bit bulky and arse compared to the Profiles, and they're not that much cheaper. The idea about them being interchangable with R and LHD is interesting, but again, I still wouldn't bother with them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONGO Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 straight from the horses mouth at profile europe..... The ONLY difference with the cranks is they haven't been stamped with the 'profile racing' stamp..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mat hudson Posted January 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 . The idea about them being interchangable with R and LHD is interesting, but again, I still wouldn't bother with them... thats the same as the regular profile hubs, just flip the pawls over.

Dan6061 Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Pretty useless for Mods, as the hub runs a 14mm axle, and mod's have 10mm. Unless you fancy some 'modifying' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 and it says only 9, 10and 11 tooth compatible . . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Ohwell, looks like a really good hub, liking the fact you can use it either LHD or RHD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Pretty useless for Mods, as the hub runs a 14mm axle, and mod's have 10mm. Unless you fancy some 'modifying' I think he did mean this in a bmx way, but he was so excited he didn't want to put it in the little wheels thread and made a new one Sorry but doesn't do anything for me, dont even like the cranks but then again I prefer 1 piece so I'm not really an expert here....
