Maybe I had a lemon before. Only one way to find out.

The hub sitting in my basement was purchased around the same time as the other, before I even built my Pugsley. It was always supposed to go on the Pugs, but my Alfine experience was so awful on my commuter bike that I elected to just go single speed.

Now, with enough time for my anger and frustration to cool off, I'm thinking about trying this hub. It's still NIB, and has been on my storage shelf for more than 3 years.
