Now move over to 1/4 or 5/16 and I would understand that.

People would kill me, but if it were up to me, I'd use torx for everything.
JohnW:
Torx is the worst invention. Causes so many problems on cars.

I heard they started cooking meth to subsidize their warranty. George hooked them up with his classic blue recipe and they've been ballin' since.

Why dumbass?
4 pawl hubs are the only ones that never skipped on me.
I know G has reasons for 3 pawls but imho it would work great in a perfect world.
It would work flawlessly if the 3 teeth would be perfectly spaced out inbetween with a perfectly matched ratchet ring.
In my experience, 3 pawl hubs generally have 2 pawls engaging at once, then one is the tiniest bit later.
Which results in lots of confidence-dropping skips/clunks coming from the driver.
I hate that shit, and frankly if my next hub does that as well, i might just give up buying parts anymore.
