Kelloggs and alloy hubs

<< < (2/3) > >>

Rombloke:
yes, all it is, is the fact that alloy hubbed look sweeter, and are therefore more desirable, but as a sponsored rider, you would want to have, and skyway would want to see you using their latest product.

I put alloyed hubbed tuffs on all my builds as thats what i had BITD. Saying that, i was only into it from 82-85 and i didnt remember placky hubbed ones. I deserted after that! :-X

I hate placky hubbed tuffs.

Swivel:
I actually prefer both... I think that alloy hubs suits some bikes and plastic ones suit others.. for example, seeing the orange Neil Ruffell Streetbeat on this kelloggs dvd, that had plastic ones and it looked good, even more so that it was the Ruff's bike and that's desirable in itself. I guess its down to personal taste.

So to the discussion of strength then, were the alloy prown to buckle more compared to the plastics?  ???

billstup:
Certain colours of tuffs only came with front plastic hubs anyway, orange being one of them  :daumenhoch:

CD17:
Anything 85 or after, I would only put Plastic Tuffs on  8)
