Ignore Tom, get a Ratchet. The engagement isnt the best but its the last hub you'll ever need to buy.

The v3 didn't suit my riding I'm more a sketchy pegs person so the extra burlyness off the ratchet added peice of mind with a Ti axlE to helP save weight

I've always liked the Odyssey cassettes, however, I know they've been hit and miss. For the price it's not exactly a huge gamble. Can't really go wrong with a Ratchet either, but some people say they have a noticeable amount of driver lag. I never felt it but I'm also used to running a freecoaster.

This is correct, they do seem to be willing to send you replacement parts on a weekly basis :p

Mine has been great. I use the 3/8 female swap and I am pegless.

yah, but with a guard, it'd be larger than 30.

just wanting to put something bigger without a bad chainline.

also, have read on other threads guys saying it was tight.

the hub is a profile mini.

thanks,

My friend had trouble fitting a 28 on a Ruben frame, so much so that he just put his old frame back together.
