Actually, it says red 32h is available.Well crap.
Milwaukee M18FHIWF12-0 will do it.3/4” drive do it?
Those figures are “optimistic”, in my experience (ie: they can’t undo things just done up to high torques) but they do go well and truly hard enough for anything you’d normally use a 1/2” breaker bar on.Milwaukee M18FHIWF12-0 will do it.

We have one at work, goes alright.Those figures are “optimistic”, in my experience (ie: they can’t undo things just done up to high torques) but they do go well and truly hard enough for anything you’d normally use a 1/2” breaker bar on.
Bullshit.Theory is sound. Hub options aren’t.
Why so slow?One of my bikes has centrelock hubs. I recently changed the discs on it. It took 10 seconds.
(shut up @ozzybmx your smugness is radiating)
I wonder if that's anything to do with the fact Shimano snubbed both Hope and CK by not letting them use Microspline for months after releasing it cus they had their "preferred" suppliers. Or were just being dicks.Another thing that was giving me the shits with Hope lately was none of their hubs were coming with microspline from factory, you get to buy a hub for $315 then buy the microspline freehub for an additional $120.
Reckon the blokes from Barnoldswick have been talking to Mr King
I don't know what went on behind the scenes when microspline was released, I remember something went down with Hope and some others.I wonder if that's anything to do with the fact Shimano snubbed both Hope and CK by not letting them use Microspline for months after releasing it cus they had their "preferred" suppliers.

I had no idea how Hope managed to sell made in UK stuff for so cheap anyway and given the price rises across the board currently theirs seem pretty reasonable?
DT350 with upgraded ratchet would be my pick now.I don't know what went on behind the scenes when microspline was released, I remember something went down with Hope and some others.
Price rise is up to buyers if it's worth it for some UK CNC.
Price wise they sit on between DT350s and DT240s now... closer to 240s actually and still heavier than both of them by ~50g and ~100g.
If anyone is after stock, Bike24 looks to have a full range of boost Hope hubs (black too) in all freehub options at $330 a rear.
What the fuck??? That neighbour sounds like a wanker!The old bugger that lives behind my block had a whinge to council about my grass being too long. none of it is taller than the scars on your shins and it's very sparse from being grazed by wombats. The plan was to keep the weed grasses slashed and let the natives grow and seed so that they'd eventually take over. Nup, not good enough. Now I've got an order to slash the lot and 14 days to do it or big fines and council will send in contractors and bill me for it.
