Wright Pads Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Porter did his!Thing is what i have seen out and about are people are buying/running the pro II hub not the pro II trials hub!!The Pro II trials comes in 6sp or singlespeed flavors as the Pro II comes in 9spd flavor.I've enjoyed telling people to get lost that have bought them off me and used em wrongly.By way Hope have cracked down on wraanty on this issue too!!

I would not expect the hub shell to do that. Fair enough if all the internals got mangled like the engagements, springs ect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's now shut? You pay people to be in a shut shop?I wasn't asking if you had some kind of bike shop, just amazed people bought things off you.
