Interesting info & reviews, but still quite subjective.  Regarding the
dynohub vibrations, it's important to keep in mind that he's not just
comparing different hubs in isolation.  The hub interacts with the
rest of the wheel and the fork (and possibly even the rest of the
frame).  Anecdotes like this do not constitute anything like
scientific data, and regardless of claims of objectivity, the author's
observations are just as subjective as anyone else's.  It might be
possible for an individual to compare different wheels (not just the
hubs) on a given bicycle, as long as precautions were taken to ensure
that he couldn't identify them.  Even then, to make a really fair
comparison, you'd have to build several wheels on each hub to control
for variations in rims, et cetera.  And even that wouldn't tell you
how much vibration *your* hub will cause, and under what conditions,
on *your* bike.  It's a very hard problem, but a single anecdotal
comparison is not very useful for determining which hub will cause the
most vibration on a given bicycle.
