Shimano? Disagree. Most days I tell people they can’t replace the cone and unfortunately it’s a new hub aka a new wheel / build.
Chris king? That’s not quite loose ball or sealed cartridge, but it’s sealed and serviceable. And yes these do have a worth lifespan etc but at an insane cost.
Anyone else?
Bromptons are also mostly commuters.. so less regular servicing and more regular non bike friendly miles - all weathers etc.
