DT 240EXP hub clones Goldix, Venfort
Lovewookie:
I'm looking to buy a set of boost hubs, but now quite uncertain about what to get, having read some of the pro's and cons here and seeing what's available on AX.
so we have Goldix, 370, 350, 240 and 180's.
370's use either a 36t or 60t ratchet made of steel. look like EXP type in some of the drawings but the photo's are old style DT.
350 (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006641370009.html) use a 26T ratchet, but I can't make out quite how that works. looks EXP configuration, but the teeth are angled and looks like there's not a huge amount of contact patch.
240 (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005220417823.html) look more like traditional EXP ratchet, with a 36/60t option (though one poster above said goldix only did them in 60t, which contradicts this) and I see some 54t resale ones. are these compatible with DT ratchets should they need to be replaced?
180's (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004721073940.html) look very similar to the 240's but with the 54t exp style ratchet.
I did see a 72T ratchet setup, I think by goldix too which looked like it'd fail on the first bit of mud. the ratchet teeth angled 30 degrees or so, so likely not cross compatible with anything else. I actually see it posted on p9 of this thread..
Then there's venfort, who have had mixed reviews, but do look like you can swap out the ratchet with genuine DT ones if it goes, though uncertain if that's just an issue with the 60T version, or if the 36T is OK?
The ZTTO M1 hubs folk talk about seem to not be sold on AX anymore?
I'm tempted to go venfort, 36T unless there is a compelling argument against?

Hello,
Could you tell me what model is this hub?
It looks similar to a Goldix and I managed to use the DT350 freehub but... More images, does it ring a bell to you?

Looks like they might be made by H-Works? https://h-works.cn/collections/hubs
ultreia:
The thing is h-works HW-261 looks similar to the advert picture but the hub built in the wheelset is another. If you look at the pictures taken directly from the wheel you will see what I mean.

Finally got my wheel built with the space grey venfort hubs. Very uneventful; so far so good. Built like any hub as well. I honestly thought I would have more thoughts but this is it for now
