NE London Bike Polo: Wednesdays: Mitchison Road N1 / Weekends:Hackney Downs E5

with a 24t in the back, skids are a no-no as the torque you put on the hub is huge.
you have a polo bike now, not a fixy-skidy bike, by sensible with it
in the other hand, Joe (teenslain) did 3 hubs in 3 week, one of the a Phil or a Goldtec, and he was not skidding, so the bad luck is also a factor

Another reason for micro gearing?

(I stripped two hubs... Although one was with a 26t cog and the other with an 18 so could be as much cheap hubs as torque)
