Dec Whiteoak Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 hi,i am thinking about getting a rear profile hub for my mod instead of the front freewheel which do you think is better??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Rear hubs are better, but now with the choice of so many good quality freewheels it's probably more beneficial to keep the weight down (and more importantly centered) and go with the front freewheel.

Are you a comp or street rider? Most street bashers use rear hubs as they are stronger and also easy to service. downside is they are heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyBazz (: Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 To be honest weight is the last thing on a street bashers mind.. Hmmm depends how hardcore you are really, I could class as a street basher but I prefer light parts over heavy, so like I got a Ti profile instead of steel, stuff like that x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Freewheel over Profile if you don't mind a constant spinning chain. Profile hubs are alright, but don't really exceed standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
