I have a set of Cane Creek hubs, single-sided fixed, on Cane Creek's Volos clincher wheel set.

Cane Creek has discontinued them.

If Cane Creek would sell just the single-sided hubs, I would use them as the foundation for my next set of wheels.

Presently, I lust after black-anodized low-flange Dura Ace hubs.

I don't understand why Cane Creek did this.

I consider Cane Creek's single-sided rear hub the aesthetically and functionally most pleasing rear hub ever made.

A black Cane Creek hub with a black EAI cog looks like one solid piece of metal, all machined together.

I rode mine for four years without any truing (I weigh 235 lbs all up), and have passed that wheel set on to my son.

It still looks and performs as if brand new.

I wonder who made that hub for Cane Creek, and whether they might they make it a again as a separate (not as part of an assembled wheel) product.

in these type of threads, one usually posts a picture to go with the description, not just a description. not very porn-like otherwise.

I had these on a really trick Vector I had back in 1984. I loved these hubs:



Not porn in the perfect, round, anti-gravity D-cup sorta way, more like missile shaped titties, 70's Playboy sorta way.

that's because they only make parts for automobiles and motorcycles. the hubs pictured above are the only thing they've ever done for bicycles and it was basically a 'fatlace' thing.
