If i'm not mistaken then GOLDIX is their OEM so the quality should be the same.

Little update on my R240SL hubs. I have ridden them 750km now, and discovered there was play in the rear wheel. Opened up the hub and discovered the NDS bearing was already rusty. Looks like these hubs have bad waterproofing (or bad factory bearings). Replaced the bearing, put in a lot of waterproof grease, so I hope this will last a little longer :)

Replacement with good bearings should solve the issues .

I bought another hub and was specifically looking for the star ratchet style and not EXP. This way I could swap the cassette + freehub between my wheels and can save on expensive cassettes. However, I realized there are two types of star ratchet freehubs. There is the DT Swiss LN version and the regular version. The LN version is flat on the side that faces the hub when slid in while the regular freehub has couple steps. They are not compatible. So if this also matters to you, definitely look at the photos of the freehub before buying. Specifically the Venfort hub with a step on the outside of the rear hub uses the LN freehub
