basher Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 if you buy a deng hub mate you will have to buy a freewheel as well, because like tarty said they are a fixed hub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashby-trials Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 hey i am just having a new wheel done at my local bike shop for my stock a front red try-all rim with dt swiss spokes and a hope pro2 hub. Well origanilly i wanted a red xc hub but my bike shop ordered one and hope have stopped making them in the range of colours and only do them in black now. So for an extra £10 more than the xc am getting a pro2 hub so thats costing me £55 for the hub now so thats good its nearly the same as the xc except its slightly bit big not too big like. Hope ive helped lol Cheers Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
