Just one of many practical issues to consider here.
Apparently this is something that sellers of these hubs promote as catching on in Europe with road-going fixed gear riders. None of the guys selling it have pushed it for Velodrome, that I am aware of.

I ride a disc cog on my SS MTB occasionally so I can ride it on fixed on trails. It works fine, never had a problem besides feeling my wheels dish being a lil off, but its just for a few hours here and there.

The sellers of this product never want to discuss likely need to redish wheels using their product while pushing their scenario that fixiefoos ordinary track hubs seem to self-destruct on a regular basis?
