Oh gawd whyyyyy? At least wait until I replace them on my roadie.

Philwood custom spoke count => low flange.

True, my bad. I think your only options for that low of a count rear track hubs are custom drilled Phils, which are boat anchors, Novatecs, which are cheap(although I hear great things about the quality, but still not something I'd lace to a $500 carbon hoop), and Mack hubs.

I'd go with a Mack.

FWIW, I've been very happy with my Novatecs, and wouldn't hesitate to lace them to anything.

yummygooey 06-22-12 01:25 PM

Where do you buy 20h rear Novatecs?

ddeadserious 06-22-12 01:26 PM

Taiwan.

From here: http://bdopcycling.com/

or source them from RG, who I think sources them from bdop.

yummygooey 06-22-12 01:39 PM

20h REAR Novatecs do not exist, IIRC.

timechaser 06-22-12 01:57 PM

Yeah, don't mind me. I don't see 20 hole Novatecs.

The pic he posted is of a rear, IMO.

I just assume one half of the circle speaks english better, judging from both parties websites.

FYI, you'll wait a looooong time till you'll get a Mack hub. Just got an email from him that if I order now he'll start manufacturing in August.

timechaser 06-22-12 10:48 PM

I just ordered a custom 20 holes phil wood rear track hub, I think that will be the best

Thanks guys for the help now j can ride with a set instead of just the front
