Component Deals & Selection / Re: DT 240EXP hub clones Goldix, Venfort

i used many of them, R310SL 28h for gravel set, R180 for some road.
R240SL and R180SL just lately, but most of them is on that model that doesn't have model number, no logo, just ratchet 24h and weight around 290 grams. They are just normal ratchet and not to loud, best choice for most wheelsets.

So yesterday I ordered a set of Goldix R180 hubs. Looks like new version and I got a really good early bird deal that I could not let pass.

Planning to build a lightweight MTB wheelset with it.

I really wanted a set of Novatec 411/412 hubs, but every Aliexpress seller that I tried to buy them off had been scamming me until now... So now I'm gonna try the Goldix hub I have been trying to avoid  ;D

R180 is road hubset.
Easy with Goldix, first letter tells if it is Mtb or Road version.

BTW.

I built 5-10 wheelsets in past 12 months with Goldix hubs and sold them to friends/customers
Following them closely, all satisfied, some are pushing 5000km. Not huge numbers, but still indicative.
My wheelsets are also Goldix, of course, and i have no issue.

I have just done my first ride with the Goldix 180 hubs... These things are insanely loud... Like embarrassingly loud... I really don't like it. I think loud hubs are for show-offs with very expensive bikes and these are the loudest I have heard... I had already put a lot of grease on the ratchets so this will probably be the most quiet I can get them.

Can confirm, 60T in R180SL is insanely loud.
WIll try 54T from DT 240 EXP to compare, also ordered 36T.

EXP is loud in general...
