Hub recommendations - High Flange, fixed/fixed, SIlver and Sealed?

31t®um like to see a blind test ride though :)

Yeah, I would too.

I don't see how you'd feel any difference to be fair. It's just buried too deep in the bike... not like new contact points or whatever.

Anyone have any experience with Mack hubs?

EDIT just relaised they're the same as gromada?

what hub rakan??

goldtec following Jon's instructions above

i did mine the other day, but didn't read that lot.
i had trouble getting the end caps off first, but just hit the axle with a hammer and it came loose. you do have to bang them out as they are quite tight.

Yeah have hit it quite a bit but nothings budging.... im a bit scared of hitting it too hard because all that cant be good for the wheel...

screw the axle bolts in a bit too, i used them instead of hitting the alu axle. don't be shy. support it up on books with enough room for the bearings to come out the bottom.

yeah, need a decent whack but then they pop out :)

I just got a pair of raw silver unetched Goldtech hubs in the post after I asked them if it was possible.

They are now considering regularly making them in silver in addition to pewter and black.

they will sell loads of those.

pewter or black + caustic soda + polish = shiny silver

weren't the original ones silver? RPMs old old ones look much more silver that pewter.

or just ask them for silver

less work??

they have previously said that they wouldn't do them and from above they are not etched with goldtec

un-etched is nicer

murtle i need to give you my forks to get chromed!

chrome fork would look shit on your bike! you'd need to get the frame painted black.

Level Hubs, available from www.hubjub.co.uk

Didn't read the original thread... I'd still go for them though...
