Very heavy duty rear hub required

[Biker BoB]

Still not explained how the hub is failing. What exactly is wrong with your hub?

A warranty issue, surely?

Been to the shop.
It was checked and deemed ok. 😂

When I beat it it lasts 20 miles then starts to wear loose again.
I have approached the shop who has said if it persists they will contact warranty.
It's just a s*** hub basically. I will replace it as I always do with stock bikes....😬

Exactly!

Plus, I doubt a full sus mtb is actually very hard on hubs, the suspension minimising loads.

😂😂😂😂 Perhaps you could visit here and see how your bike gets on off road.😬😲

You still haven't said what is actually wrong with it!

If you read the posts I quite clearly say it's working loose

What's working loose? Bearings? Spokes?

 

[Biker BoB]

The cones won't lock because it's a junk formula hub as mentioned

Bart Simpson once said to his father: "Dad, you are a machine". From your adventures and exploits, I think you are the machine. Dropping off cliffs with a 150kg bike, pulling gravel turns, stepping down rocks as if they're mere wheelchair access ramps, ripping up pawls with some impressive torque, "killing" hubs on all your stock bikes, even the £6k machine you've purchased of late. You sir are the machine. We salute you.

But I digress. You are looking for a suitable hub. Perhaps something in heat treated, forged T9 Unobtanium alloy? Something fat and indestructible? Something beefed up to carrying heavy loads? Pawls rated to 970Nm? Low tooth count for maximum chain wrap? Masculine colours? Definitely bolt-on and solid axle, since quick release skewers have their limits.

I think we found it for you.

😂😂😂 Perhaps you should look at the costs of full suspension mountain bikes these days

A decent full sus mountain bike certainly ain’t £6,000. You’ve bought at the expensive end.

I've had no problem with newer Hope Hubs, but I ride road/touring bikes.

150kg all in weight and needs a motor. Why not just get a motocross bike and have done with it.

Thanks.
I'm thinking I'll go with a Chris king hub looking at them now.

Well I'm 125kg or so.
My old hard tail takes the abuse with fox forks and hope hubs .
New bikes with stock wheels are not always good
