Hi everyone,
Just received a brand new pair of Novatech hubs.
On close inspection I’ve noticed that there is slight bubbling or uneven finishing around some spoke holes.
One flange only, the rest are fine.
I was just wondering whether the spoke tension will cause the anodised to brittle/crack and water will cause early alloy oxidation?
Could this happen or am I worrying unnecessarily and I should just build them up?
Cheers
