Feels like it engages better/more "solid" than a KHE clone. It clicks kinda like a cassette but not as often and waaay more silent. Really like it! The only thing I don't like are the different flange sizes.

Man, for a brand new coaster that is a very minor thing to pick up. Sounds like it must be good hub. Keep us all posted!

Bike looks rad. Pegless ftw

Thanks guys! Rode it today for some time to get to know how the slack works. Found out that the slack is the biggest when you pedal down, so your front foot is at the bottom and then crank back up again.

I know, but it looks sick as hell, so who cares.
