or pick another hub...
oh and i was thinking about lacing the rim (which would be an Ody hazard lt) with some DT spokes...so criticize that too....
Either go with the Vandero, or get a G-Sport Marmoset or Tree.
tree = too much money
vandero (do you mean the race one or the original?)
and i was thinking about that GSport hub
as far as the Ody race hub, does anyone know if a kink axle will fit into it, because i heard that they make good strong 3/8" axles and i know they fit into vanderos and i also know that my fat ass will probly destroy that hollow 3/8" axle...
race vandero
The only difference between the regular Vandero and the Race Vandero is the axle; the regular one uses a heat-treated 4140 solid 3/8" axle (which is the exact same thing as the Kink axle), and the Race one uses a narrower heat-treated 41140 hollow 3/8" axle. If you don't plan on ever running pegs, the Race will probably be fine. I wouldn't recommend it, though.
hmmmmm...
race it is then...i mean..i dont ever run pegs so i cant imagine bending it riding trails...
so thats what it will be
36h Ody Race hub laced with DT spokes to Odyssey hazard lt rim ALL BLACK
yay
All black was sooo 4 years ago....get a chrome rim, Primo spokes in like 10 different colors, and a Proper 6061 green or gold hub.
Ahahaha jk.
its a front wheel, no chrome, the only chrome i every have on my bike is the back rim so i can stop. no exceptions.
what does everyone think of the Shadow cassette???
Only 2 berrings.....? I don't know about that thing.
i beleive the shadow hub has more then two bearings...

The right one is, and it says it only has 2 berrings, so if you include the drivers berrings then is it 3 or 4 total? I don't know, I still wouldn't trust them.
that's the front hub
queens is right, i was talking about the BACK hub AKA- the Cassette (see my origanl post before you started typeing away thinking you knew everything)
What the **** is your problem, I posted a pic of the front, and the rear(cassette), I just didn't want to take the ****ing time to change it so it showed only the rear. If the front has 2 berrings, then the rear isn't going to be any different(minus the driver). So **** off.
Chris King hubs are better.
A lot is better than those hubs.
i wish i could afford some kings.. .
let me ask that dude to steal it from you for me! hahahaha.. .
arent king hubs like $48375824325 (i really mean $500)
thats alot....unless you sell cyrstal meth out of the back of your car...
im fine with my no-name hubs
im fine with my no-name hubs
I was fine with my no-name hubs too, until i destroyed them because they were unsealed and one of the bearings got #$!@*& up in the hub, but the lasted a good 2-3 years...
mine are sealed. the backs not a cassette, but i dont even want to go to any lower gearing...cassettes are too complicated anyway.
A set of BMX Chris King hubs retails for $568.
And to imagine that for less than half of that price you can get an entire wheelset with hubs that work just as good.

you're still gay
Yeah, but my bike is better then yours.
That's in the eye of the beholder, and something tells me that his bike is just a little bit better for riding street (which, interestingly enough, is what he rides) than yours is.
My hubs cost more then half of his bike.
My friend wants to buy an FMF.. I'll have to make sure to kick him before he does, else he might turn into a clone of this guy..
My hubs cost more then half of his bike.
you probably don't even ride, and i only pay for a few things on my bike
I pay wholesale on everything my bike has on it. Ha. Get on my level hoe.
Hey I have a chance to buy some carbon fiber BMX hub. The manufacturer is called "T.H.E". I cannot find anything on them on the web. Anyone ever heard of that company? I think that it stands for someone's name. Anyhow the hubs had a price of $429 on them. I think that that is outragious. But I can have them for half or less.

This just in: No one gives a f*ck.

did you ever fall on your head?
if i had pics i would post them.
my bike is definately way better for it's purpose than your race bike is. did you ever ask yourself why you were spending so much on a bike you won't use? i'll probably beat you in a race too . at the moment, i have 30-9 gearing, which is way more suitable for racing than 39-16. it works good to get away from cops too
But isnt mine a higher gear?
no, you have a "wheelie" gear
he doesn't even race. i can beat him in a race with my 33-13 gearing on my 32 pound bike....with a flat.
Yeah, but my bike is better then yours.
He just admitted he was gay.
He just admitted he was gay.
you are just as gay
if i had pics i would post them. it works good to get away from cops too
Do you like not own a camera thats digital? (im not *****ing, im asking) Does the 30-9 work for getting away from school security too?, because with all the construction at my school theres lots of things to ride, but lots of security as well...
