Price Paid:
$70.00
at Performance Favorite Ride:
roads Bike Setup:
531 db frame, Open Pro rims, Ultegra front hub, Ultergra bar end shifters, etc. Summary:
For $70 laced with an Open Pro rim and butted spokes, seemed like a good risk to take. No real problems with the hub- it rolls, it freewheels. I even like the look. The bearings have a lot of drag and the whole hub feels tight. No adjustment- cartridge bearings located by pressure and axle design. I kept hoping that they would loosen up a bit, but after 500 miles still tight. Planning to unlace and put in an Ultegra rear hub. Strengths:
Price. It works- hold the rim and tire in place, freewheels. For the money, I am not bothered. Weaknesses:
Tight. No adjustment of preload, and there is constant drag that has not loosened over time as I hoped. Similar Products Used:
Ultegra, 105, Campy Super Record, Phil Wood.
