From what rpenmanparker said, the BHS hubs have improved the hub geometry, but I haven't done the research. BDop Novatec hubs are a very good value hub, and low NDS tension is not an issue.

This is one of those threads that should be locked because so much about the original topic isn't relevant anymore. The BHS hubs I was asking about have been changed/improved to the point that the...

I thought that heads out would be better because it would help to increase NDS spoke tension. That's what I did on my build using Dati hubs which have even less NDS flange offset.

The build I...

It's a shame that BDop doesn't offer a silver hub, but honestly I like a loud hub when coasting.

Have you tried wider rims?

I love the ride that I get from 21mm rims + 23mm tires. It's a noticeable improvement over 19mm rims with 23mm tires.

There aren't many hills in my area(NW Phoenix),...

With my light weight, and the good roads in the area, lightweight wheels aren't a liability. Why would I want to build wheels heavier than needed.

To be honest, the reason I use Alpha 340 rims is...

I'll be using Stan's Alpha 340 rims(20/24), CX-Ray spokes 2xDS radial NDS with brass nipples on the rear wheel.

I love the Stan's hoops. They are very light, and are 21mm wide which makes a...

Last summer I built a set of very lightweight wheels using Dati hubs over the Bitex ones due to a better hub geometry. The build(Stan's Alpha 340, Sapim CX-Ray 24 spoke, 2x DS Radial NDS) has worked...

I have seen other reviews that say the same thing, but after comparing the geometry to the hubs I'm using now, these will be an improvement.

Thanks for your input.

Here in NW Phoenix, bearing seals aren't a major concern.

Bikehubstore hubs. Any gripes?

I'm thinking about building a set of budget training wheels using some BHS hubs. Has anyone here had any problems with them?

I plan on using the SL210 rear hub, and weigh about 170lbs.
