The hub that came with my current rear wheel from Cero needs a new hub body and new bearings. The wheel is a bit Washington’s axe/Triggers broom, originally an ar24 it now has a kinlin 31t rim and obv new spokes A’s that’s a deeper rim. That started when Cycledivision sent an ar30 rear rim and I didn’t notice til I came to swap rims some 6 months later!
I’d like to build a similar type wheel but with ideally a steel hub body but still 24 spokes. Other than a £200 DA hub I’ve not yet found an option. There are various ‘anti bite guard’ options but I’m sceptical they really work, especially having just read the review of some Prime wheels in CW where the body has visible gouges after their testing. I was looking at the prime rear hub from Chain ReWiggle but now I’ve 2nd thoughts. Any ideas? (It’s a 10 speed drive train btw).
