Title: What hubs should I use?
Post by: Gnarlyscoots on June 08, 2016, 06:31 PM

I am looking to lace my new chrome Hazard Lite rims to a fairly respectable set of sealed hubs, for a build I am going to do.

They must be 36h, sealed, slotted 14mm, 3/8th's or female axles, in blue or chrome finish. Nothing old school or retro please Guys.

Suggestions on a postcard    (scratch that, too slow  ;D ) this thread would be cool, with pictures or links  :daumenhoch:

Thanks.

What do you mean by slotted 14mm rear? Are they going in 14mm drops or 10mm?

3/8 drops, Rob. A new TA 20.

 :) Profile would be my first choice but loads of 10mm front/rear race hubs available.Does anyone even make slotted 14mm hubs anymore?

I don't know buddy. I was going by what I am used to  :D

Every TA that I have seen has been built as a 'retro', and I fancy doing something completely different.

I think profile minis are probably your best bet then  :daumenhoch:
