  • Onyx. Silent

  • You been running them? Trying to see if we can pick them up as a supplier.

  • No. I'd like to, but I got dt for free so made no sense to buy. Plus not broke a dt yet and noise doesn't bother me so not inclined to swap.

  • Some of the Campag wheels are available to order with XDR freewheel body.

    But agreed, OP is after a hub and not a wheelset.

  • I do like a quiet hub if I’m riding distance. That’s the issue (in a good way?) with the DT’s I have as well..they just haven’t given up so no reason to replace.

  • Went to visit David at DCR today and he'd just accepted delivery of a load of Onyx hubs road and mtb and he gave me the full talk through and demo. They are unreal so quiet and amazing build quality. USA made 5 year warranty but he reckons they should last twice that if looked after. They not light and around £550 a pair but if i could afford them I'd have them as they really are beautiful things and they come in a nice box.

  • I got my Onyx from DCR a couple of years ago. They're really nice, but you soon come to resent the noise from any other bikes you might own

  • Yeah upgraditis is a fucker they even made my Hyperon ultras feel cheap

  • Also big up David DCR. He's an excellent dude

  • Yeah I've known him since before he went out on his own and currently on my 13th set of wheels from him and he always sorts me out. I always tout him where i can. He also told me today he can get hold of Tune and Mcfk finishing kit and small parts if anyone wants any? No uk stock of either and less hassle than ordering from Germany. I gave up when looking for kit from my new build as importing from China and America actually worked out either easier or cheaper and in some cases both.

  • He's gonna sort me out with some little Phil Wood bits that aren't worth the cost for me of ordering on their own from the states.
    He can get all their parts also
