Right, does anyone have any idea what the difference is between the Novatec 711/722 and 771/772 hubs?
One is supposedly for road and one MTB, but other than the number of pawls 2/4 I can't see a difference, or a reason not to buy the 771/772 which are $20 cheaper on aliexpress.
Anyone? Seriously confused here.
