Hi guys building a bike and want an aerospoke soon but I want to run and front brake when I need to and definitely want a non machined one so I was thinking to get a rear one but then I heard they wear out quickly from skidding and because I will be brake less sometimes I will need to skid so will it last? Because I don't want to be going down a hill then come to stop and the hub just break free and I can't stop or something.
So do you reckon I can get away with it or are do they make shitty rear wheels?
