Yeah, since I read what you (and others) have said about these issues I've been considering dispensing with radial entirely as, even though I've had no problems so far, it only takes one hub from a batch with issues to fuck up a build. And then rebuilding tangentially is a no go.
But I know that in these instances Hope are really good with warranty and will just replace the hub.

Ha.interesting. All front rs monos I have seen built radially or tried to build radially had a play in them, all were 20h.Just riding along seems to have the same experience. Some 32h 3 crossed ones had the same issue. Bad apples in a batch I suppose.
Regarding rear nds radial, I agree with what you said about the flange not being beefy enough to withstand the force.Even if it could withstand it , you could have had bearing play as a bonus ;-)
