I've read so many Phil Woods hub failure stories that I would never spend the $$ for one myself.

Guitar Ted Productions: The Saga Of The Snow Dog And The Phil Wood Hub

I've done fine with Shimano and Hope hubs in 32H flavours [700c & 26"].

I've never so much as broken a spoke.

I get my wheels built locally by a pro wheel builder and I get them checked over about once a year.
