Hey is that 18lbs with pedals. I have almost the same build but I'm 19 lbs with pedals and r1 brakes. Wondering where you weight savings are.

1. My bearings look good and feel good.
2. My brothers arches from Stans do weight more which is why we bike swapped to test rolling resistance.
3. I do think I have a small amount of rotor rub after just replacing my pads. I will have to do a truing and a adjustment.
4. Thanks for the help just making sure novatec isn't terrible and if so replace if needed. I hve read that some china prebuilt wheels novatecs come with terrible cheaper bearings then the ones they make direct.

Basically I was wondering about if I'm putting my self at a disadvantage using these hubs. They seem to be nice and all bit was asking other opinion's. As I haven't owned any other hubs besides the basics stock ones from bikes.
Thanks for the comments so far.

So this is the wheel set I got with my ip-256 build I have roughly 1500 km of XC riding on my build. I have regressed and maintained my hubs a few times.
But last night riding with my brother on this Stan's with hope hubs we started to notice how much faster he coasted then me. So we switched bikes to see if our weight was the factor. Nope.
Is there a big difference? Should I get new bearings mine look and feel good. We have the same rubber. If new bearings which ones!!
Since I just found this site today I will try to get my build up here.
19lbs with pedals and a rock shox Reba.
