I need to purchase a new rear track/fixed hub for my bike (will be used on urban streets -- not on a
velodrome). I am interested in people thoughts about various brands, is there a consensus "best of
class"? Are there brands considered by many, that I should stay away from?
Also, what does anybody know about the Chub Hub (www.chubhub.com), billed by the company as the
"Ultimate Fixey Hub". Does anybody have one? Are they really the ultimate? How do they stand up over
time regarding their wear and tear?
I was planning to purchase a 32 hole chubhub but found out that the company is out of stock on that
version and they only have 28 hole hubs in stock. I need a 32. Is it worth the wait? Or should I go
with another brand?
Finally, forgive my ignorance, but is it better to get a serviceable hub than to get one that isn't?
Thanks! Bryan Walton
