Please stop with the "/scrod" stuff. There's an entire forum here for everyone else to answer questions.

Novatec/Joytech, like Formula, make a fairly wide range of hubs - some good and some bad. The track hubs on our site (which are the only ones we can currently get) have bearings, hardware and axles better than found on common Formula track hubs and are amazing for the price.
I'm pretty sure the solid flange version has loose-ball bearings and I have no direct experience with them.
