Just to add another option, Analog sells both road and touring hubs by a company called Bithex. I have the Bithex touring rear hub with Cliffhangers on my Sam, no mechanical issues, nice hub. Have not tried to service it, need to learn those skills. Recently, I ordered the road version of the Bithex hubs. Planning to have a lightweight wheelset built for my Sam with the rims Crust makes. The rear Bithex road seems strong enough for anything I could throw at it. Analog doesn't list the weight for each hub. https://analogcycles.com/products/bitex-touring-hubs?variant=42456805474536
All that said the V/O rear hub is on sale for $75! Scott On Tuesday, October 31, 2023 at 8:39:24 AM UTC-4 ted.l...@gmail.com wrote: > I can speak to the VO hub quality.
