...

There are sales at Ali for the moments with very tempting prices for the Novatec hubs.

Could you link some? The spare parts though is valid also.

I know, I asked them for 36t ratchet.

Thanks but  the ZTTO M1 thread is full of ratchet failures... Maybe the 36T is safer I have no idea.

The 6-bolt brake version has a pawl system with 72 clicks if you don't want ratchet. They have this one as well for j-bend spokes, but its heavier https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003541415410.html

Does anyone have the Yuan An RD13 hubs on a wheelset? I was quoted for a pretty good price last year for 2 wheelsets but eventually cheaped out on local 2nd hand DT350 wheels
Here is their comparison chart


The full quote was 910USD for 2 carbon wheelsets with their hubs and pillar spokes

Does anyone know any chinese brands that make 20f/24r centrelock hubsets?

[ultreia]

Any boost MTB hubs recommendation? I would like ratchet and light. I found the Venfort and Goldix M180. Any other similar with better weight?

I'm assuming for road hub spacing?

I built up a set of wheels with Goldix 240 hubs (36T) and they've held up well for about 400 miles so far. I'm about 95 kg with gear and like cranking up super steep stuff in my 30/51 gear, so they can handle the torque pretty well.

The bearings still seem fine but I will probably order a replacement set soon so that I have them if needed.

Yup! Oops I shouldve specified in my original comment

I can't make any comment on quality other than to say these exist.

Hello everyone, I want to share my experience of using the GOLDIX 240 EXP hub. As soon as I assembled the wheel, on the first ride the ratchet slipped under load, various lubricants didt help, and in the end, after 100 km the ratchet broke.

That seems to be very common with these hubs...
