I just had the rear hub on one of my Chris King wheels serviced. Now the hub does not spin as freely as any of my other CK rear wheels.
When I did my scientific research in the garage it seems like the serviced wheel will spin half as long as a broken-in rear CK wheel when I spin it with about equal force.
I have a long ride/race this weekend and wondered if this will effect my performance. My thinking is that the effect is similar to having the brake rubbing.
If it was only a short ride I wouldn't worry about it and eventually my guess is it too will break in. But this is an extreamly long ride/race and any negative effect of these wheels may get to me in the long run.
