The stuff about Hope flange collapsing is nonsense... I built dozens of Hope hubs and nobody ever had any issue.
Probably some dodgy home builder making a big noise about his poor job
I built a lot too. Now I've seen some of them with cracked flanges. Not a lot, some. Always replaced without question.
All the new hope hubs are a lot better then the older ones.
Could you enlighten us all as to what do home builders do or not do, to make a flange crack?
Interesting. Looks good. I'll do some research to see what the Collective Wisdom about those hubs is. Cheers.
