Only my personal experience, but my Novatec hubs crapped out after about 350 miles. LB is swapping them right now for DT350 hubs. I have a set of Novatec brand wheels (Jetflys) that have been great, so I figured these would be good. Could be a one off, but after doing more research, the DT hubs seem to be pretty bulletproof for most people, and since the extra weight is at the hub, it shouldn't affect the wheel's performance. When I get my wheels back, I'll post up my riding experience with the DT hubs.
