Good point that hasn’t been discussed here yet… I’ve only ever seen them listed as a 36 hole hub.

I built one up in the rear wheel of my Clementine Cargo Cycle with a Velocity Cliffhanger rim. It was a good match, cosmetically, to the Panasonic front dyno hub. Works perfectly so far. I bought two, I haven't built the other one up yet, it will probably get used with a Shutter Precision front dyno hub that I have..

It was about, say, 5% harder to build into a wheel due to the drive side flange being larger than the non-drive side flange - had to flex the non-drive side spokes to get them into the flange, but pretty minor. The larger drive side flange reduces the angle difference between the sides, so the wheel is slightly stronger, and has slightly more even spoke tension between the sides, so a good trade-off.

I say use one, especially if you are using a front dyno hub. When not using a front dyno hub, I prefer my hubs to match, but not everyone feels that way.

I couldn’t find a thread where these had been talked about.
Has anyone tried the Silver rear hubs & have opinions about them they’d like to share?

Starting to build up my new Sam and am looking into such things.
