  • Onyx still make hubs. They’re a delight in silence. Totally quiet, in all the colours of the rainbow. Pricey, but so worth it. Fit and forget type of engineering.

  • Yeah, I know, but like all sprag / ramped bearing clutch hubs they are relatively heavy, as the bearing contact surfaces need to be steel.

    • XTR FH-M9111 weights 237g;
    • Onyx Vesper MTB CL MS 142/12 weighs 374g;
    • Onyx MTB MFU CL MS 142/12 weighs 417g;

    They are pretty cool little machines but, at 500£ a pop, no thanks.
