Rear wheel purchase...
I have bee nhaving troubles fiding out what I was to be on my new custom rear wheel. So far I have narrowed it down to Odyssey Hazard Lite rim(chrome 48H), and DT swiss spokes. What i'm having trouble with is the hub. At first I wanted to go with the Odyssey Hazard Cassette, but then someone(who I trust) suggested Demolition Anerexia hub. I was also looking at the new Shadow Rant hub. It looked okay, but I think it said it only had 2 sealed bearings. What hub do you guys think will work out the best?
Oh yeah, I ride pegless, and I want to run 25-9 gearing. Just to let you know.

odyssey comes with extra cogs incase you ever want to change your gearing ratio and they seam pretty well made. Just spent the extra 13 bucks and youll get more for your money

Unlike Demolition, Odyssey will also warranty its hubs and drivers, as well. The Odyssey will be perfectly fine if you do grind, also. I know plenty of four-peg riders that rock that hub.

Thanks a lot guys, I guess i'll just get the Odyssey cassette with the 9T driver. Is the blackout driver the only 9T driver I can get that fits the Odyssey hub?

RNC, Knight, and Profile make ti 9t drivers for the Odyssey. Blackout and Kink (I think) make chromoly ones.
Personally, I use the RNC, which is the only company that makes a LHD model.
