  • Joe, though I hate you Millwall-ghey supporters...can I dibs the Suzue? Just don't touch me when I see you.

  • I used Michie hubs for a bit over a year and in all conditions they were fine. Ended up transferring those wheels on my girls build and got a new wheel set with Suzue's. I went for Suzue because a) they look awesome and b) because you can use Dura Ace lockrings which I trust more than the Miche one I had and had to replace a couple of times. I’m sure there are other higher quality lockrings you can use with Miche hubs though.

    Just brought a new set of Suzue hubs and am building my first set of wheels, laced the front wheel last night.

    I vote Suzue.

    You're too late, baby...

  • Throw this in the mix.

    Planet X track hubs. Yes.

  • IMO

    1 GC
    2 Suzie pro max
    3 miche

  • forumla hubs do rock aswell, but those disco wheels are best.. (Those black disco wheels would rock my faceoff) my 2p worth

  • I've been using miche hubs for about five months now, run nice and smoothly, though the quality of the miche lockring is a bit of a bitchface.

  • EAI fits. Beastman strong too.

  • IMO
    1 GC
    2 Suzie pro max
    3 miche

    This^

    The GC and the Suzie are pretty damned close in quality though. Note that the standard pro max has cup and cone bearings, which will need a degree of looking after. The pro max SB is of slightly lower quality but has sealed cartridge bearings, which are near maintainance free. The GC's also have cartridge bearings.

    (FTR I personally quite like cup and cones, but often buy cartridge for simplicity)

    So if you want cup and cone = Suzie pro max
    If you want sealed cartridge bearings = Grand Compe

  • thanks a lot for all the input guys, really helpful and much appreciated. Teenslain, PM about the suzue hubs.

  • has anyone used Token track hubs?
