+1, that was also my assumption...and now that I know the more likely explanation I like this name even more! I guess if I saw there were HUBS that were called "Big Sliding" I wouldn't have come up with my "plausible explanation", but the only big slider I knew of were their BB sets...and I happen to have one FS if anyone's in the market but it has a
very wide TI spindle (probably for an early Mtn. Bike).
