merrit non stop cassette vs profile elite
« on: June 20, 2016, 12:44:24 AM »
Looking into getting a new hub guys. Buddy has an elite runs great super fast.  Trying to find people who are running merrits non stop cassette is just as good same quick engaging   easy roller   

 Compared to my odyssey quadrant hub my buddy. Keeps on rolling. On a side by side comparison lol

Elites have a lot of pawls which have more springs and pawls. This is great for quick engagement but might have a bit more resistance (drag). I haven't ridden a Merrit but I have seen them in the shop and they seem well put together. Odyssey hubs don't engage as quickly as an Elite but run well. I've got cassette hubs from King, Profile, Eclat and Joytech clones. Honestly, much of a muchness, they're all just hubs after a couple of cranks.

I swapped my buddys rims off his bike been sitting almost 3 months. (He tore his acl ).  Went to the trails.  Ya i can see the difference night and day really smooth .. 

 Going to do a good cleaning on my hubs  and lube.    Has anyone had a rear odyssey quartet set hub have the bearing lock up   before   bought it new last year went rode park and dirt notice they wouldnt spin. Never owned female hub before. Said fuck it rolls when its bolted. Hell.  , but  had shop true it up and replace 3 spokes over winter onwer goes bearings gone. They dont spin. Took em out totally fine slapped them back in said dont worry about it ...
