Matthew_Gibson Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Pro IIs are far from crap, I've been running one for a while now, never skipped, ever. Really nice hub, in up grading to a '07 model, soon, well just the hubshell. The '06 does have a fault, the hub shell is 'weaker' than the 07, but something like 3% of all the ones sold have cracked. Worth every penny. GET ONE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt rushton Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Yeah there Good hubs But get the 07 version because the shells are known for cracking. I learnt that the hard way.Matt Rushton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 They are great hubs and dont go for the normal version as it has less pickups and isn't made for trials. The trials version is great, i have one and its mint one thing i would say is dont get the 06 version as a few 3% to be exact crack and therefore they revised them and the 07 one has been stronger and dont crack.

basher Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 I think people get confused that hope are like deng ect and are trial specific so when they hear a new hub for example is comeing out the expect it to be a trial hub. As far as i am aware hope at the moment dont have plans for a new trials hub (correct me if im wrong please) as the pro2 is such a hit and will more than likely just build upon that each year.

Brisa Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Pro 3 has a disc mount? Maybe a sign that it won't be a road specific hub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robwalker Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Pro 3 has a disc mount? Maybe a sign that it won't be a road specific hub?100% possitive it is, work at halfords and got the new Hope catalouge through the other week, it clearly stated for road bike use, in the same way it states that the pro II is for trials/freeride use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jay119 Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 I've just got myself a set of pro2 wheels and so far they are really, really good. And they are the loudest hubs I have ever heard, sounds like a bloody motorbike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
